I agree we need a backup, but would prefer a low-profile one who would sign a two-way. I'd take Mac back if he hadn't shown up to camp out of shape.
If Cammy is back, I could see him as a right winger. He scores most of his goals on the right side anyway.
Statsny is my dream pickup. I'd give him 7x8M, but I'm not sure what his desire is. It sure would make drafting and building easier knowing that u have 2 guys that are top 2 centers for a lot of years. As well, I'm tired of seeing this guy light the flames up 3-8 times a year. If not the flames, I hope he signs in Fla or NYI. At least east. Pretty much 0 chance he signs back in Colorado I think. Career suicide I think.
Niskanen is also a dream pickup. I'd overpay 6x6M. Don't really care for orpik. He's a bruiser, but slow, and I bet he gets a 4+ contract somewhere. I'd take Greene as a fallback.
D is the focus in FA because outside of Sieloff and Wotherspoon, nobody really knocking on the door. I don't hate Wideman, and I think with a summer to get healthy he will be better for us next year, but I prefer him gone next season.
