But outside of those unlikely scenarios I think we should be looking to give opportunity to our young D. Brodie has blossomed into a potential #2 defenseman IMO.

Cundari/Breen/Smith/Butler/Sarich

I have to agree with Roof-Daddy yet again. We have 3 guys who are clear top 4 d-men and then 5 guys who are likely 5-7 guys. I think we can roll with that unless Feaster finds some great trade options.

Sarich was scratched for a lot of the early part of this season and could be dealt at the draft or at next years trade deadline if Feaster gets a reasonable offer for him and he's still willing to waive the NMC. Kind of surprised he wasn't dealt this deadline. If he stays he's a reasonable vet but I wouldn't want him holding anybody back.
I wouldn't be bothered about bringing back Carson, but I don't know much.

Gotta be honest. I don't hate butler. Had he been introduced as a third pair guy and worked his way up, I dont think ALL others would either. Doesn't help that he was traded for Regehr.

Sink or swim. Remember, this team has nothing to lose. And I want to see why 3 of our coaches and 2 of our GMs believe Breen is an NHL-calibre defenseman. I like what I've seen of him. He's, I think, 24 now, so we better figure it out now.
