The RFA class is as follows: F Blake Comeau, F Mikael Backlund, F Paul Byron, F Logan MacMillan, F Ryley Grantham, F Stefan Meyer, D John Negrin, D Brendan Mikkelson, D Jordan Henry and G Leland Irving
[I think it's safe to assume that MacMillan, Grantham, Meyer and Negrin won't be back.]

The UFA class is as follows: F Olli Jokinen, F Lee Stempniak, F David Moss, F Brendan Morrison, F Tom Kostopoulos, F Tim Jackman, F Guillaume Desbiens, F Pierre-Luc Letourneau-Leblond, F Raitis Ivanans, D Cory Sarich, D Scott Hannan and D Derek Smith

Of the 2010 draft class, only Joey Leach and Patrick Holland need to be signed by June 1, 2012. I presume both will be.

There are a LOT of decisions to be made between now and the end of the season, but the team also has a LOT of flexibility. 19 contracts to be utilized.
