Weird how some of you seem to have forgotten what they bring.
Backlund is easily our #2 center. In some aspects still above Monahan.
Colbourne and Raymond were the most productive players we had going down. Probably just itching to get back and prove they belong.
If Stajan is willing to be a 3-4th line center and PK specialist and be happy about it that is a clear upgrade over Bouma or Bollig.
Raymond is an upgrade over Sven, Colbourne is an upgrade on Ferland, Stajan and Backlund are uprades over Granlund and Bollig. If any of them aren't then Brad can make a move.
Granlund, Ferland and Byron kind of get put in a tough spot but more injuries will happen. Think it's inevitable that McGratton gets waived and I believe a trade needs to be made. Glencross, Stajan, Bollig for whoever gets the best deal in return.
