I'm hoping that we ice a roster next season that's a mix of our young skill guys and a bunch of scrappy/goonish/pain in the ass free agents. Those guys can protect the talent and should be able to be had on short-term contracts, so it wouldn't tie us up for the future. I realize that we're probably not going to be very good, but I hope that we still manage to be a team that everyone else hates to play against.
