Is it the re-signed average Stempniak/Comeau last years roster on one side, with unknowns like Cervenka and Hudler on the other side? The loss of veteran leadership in Jokinen and TK? Still no top centre? The smaller forward roster? Not sure.
But yes MMF, it is July 2.

It's a weird group. You have two European rookies there basically guaranteed significant ice time. If they'd addressed the specific weaknesses in size, toughness, character, faceoffs, it would seem better, but basically they've just filled the slots. Would have been happier trading for someone like Ott, for example. Someone that injects some emotional life to the lineup and helps the others to get out of their shells.
