That still leaves room for a number of the young players to fight for roster spots and then Cammalleri, Sarich and/or Stempniak can be trade bait at the deadline to make room for more players from the Heat. By that time, the young players that have been up for most of the season should hopefully have a grasp on what they are doing and not need as much attention as the new guys.
Piling on a team full of rookies will not help anything.

I'd rather ice a team of primarily rookies and lose, than lose with a 1st line of Cammy - Stajan - Stempniak.
Either way, this team is brutal. It'll just be more fun to watch the kids play, IMO.
