Lots of losses, but an injection of the good young talent we've been waiting for.

Yeah I'm excited for that too. I hope we move some of those upcoming UFA contracts at the deadline for picks, even if they're late round. Guys like Stempniak, Cammalleri, Stajan. That will give us some roster spots at the end of the season too. It would be nice to see us with 8 or more picks in this upcoming draft. I anticipate we'll have a top 5 pick and that will result in hopefully a NHL ready player. I anticipate we'll be one of the youngest teams in the NHL in 2014 - 2015, hopefully we can surprise some people.
