Offseason moves crystal ball says:
Colorado win the lottery. Take Jones.
Tanguay is shopped around at the draft. No takers. bought-out. Signs with Avalanche.
Kiprussoff retires.
Ramo signs and comes over.
At the draft we trade the St Louis pick + a 4th + Laurent Brossoit + Blair Jones to the Oilers for the 8th pick
At 6 we take Monahan, at 7 we take Pulock & at 29 we take Zachary Fucale. CP explodes.
Feaster signs UFA goalie Mike Smith; lets Cervenka walk
Monahan makes the team out of camp, as do Cundari & Reinhart. Breen makes it as 7th D, though Wotherspoon makes a surprising push in camp.
Giordano is named captain
Cammalleri Stajan Stempniak
Baertschi Backlund Hudler
Glenncross Monahan Horak
Bouma Reinhart McGrattan/Jackman
Giordano Wideman
Brodie Sarich
Butler Cundari
Breen
Smith
Ramo
Riding the same goaltending duo that landed him Stamkos in 2009, Feaster successfully acquires a 2nd lottery pick in a row & CP rejoices as he steps to the podium in 2014 & picks Sam Reinhart with the 3rd overall pick.
Offseason moves crystal ball is usually wrong.
