There are not enough spots on the roster to keep all our veterans and have room for the rookies too.
- I like how Stajan has improved but I would not want to re-sign him over allowing our young centers to move up the depth charts. At this point my biggest hope is that he improves enough to be able to command more than just a 2nd round pick in return.
- Cammalleri is a personal fav and think he would be a great role model for the kids but my guess is that he will want to go to a team that is in the playoff hunt. I would rather trade him for a 1st + at the deadline than hang onto him and risk losing him for nothing.
- Stempniak has shown to be a great linemate for Monahan and Baertschi. I would consider re-signing him if that continues all season. However, if Cammalleri re-signs then I would trade Stempniak and hope that another player can fill this spot.
Of the pending UFAs, I would only consider keeping one of them and even then I would probably try to make another trade to send out a veteran that is under contract (SOB or Butler if Breen can hold down a 3rd line role).
