With the amount of decent players unable to find contracts lately, I would welcome the idea of new franchises. If it means more talent will be staying in the league and not moving onto the KHL or unnecessarily buried in the AHL then why not?
There's a nice hard cap system in place to ensure teams balance out relatively quickly, so the growing pains wouldn't be too long.

Other than Daniel Alfredsson (who is probably going to retire) there are no good players without contracts.
edit: At least UFAs. There are some solid RFAs that haven't signed yet, but those will happen soon.
