Jones has played like a sack of monkey crap but they need to keep him to stay at the cap floor.
Setoguchi should be gone, but lets be honest, he was worse than a few kids in camp to begin with, he didn't earn his place, so why do we think he has to now?
Grats is fine with being in the press box quite a bit and I think he makes more sense there than a rookie who need development time. I think he's actually a good fit as a 13th forward. Draft him in if you're worried about a war every now and again.
So if Jones and Seto stay I expect status quo once everybody is healthy because I don't think anybody outside of those 3 deserve to leave (aside from Glencross but that's not happening with his NMC). But I do agree with the OP that Jooris and Granlund have earned spots. They've made the team more fun to watch and been better than at least 5 or 6 other forwards... frankly watching a "rebuilding" team with 1 rookie on it at the start of the year was a bit of a downer. It's hard to understand why a team in our position would go with such a veteran heavy roster tbh.
