Going to be an interesting couple of years. There is a log jam building that's pretty sizeable, and even with the odd vet being let go or moved out, I don't think there will be enough roster spots for the amount of solid prospects coming up. IMO it's likely Sven won't be the last prospect dealt for a decent draft pick, or maybe even a couple of quantity for quality trades may happen.
I mean just look at what's coming next fall. No UFA forwards on the current roster, and quality young players can't even get a sniff of being dressed....and that's with a couple guys already out with injuries.
