Smid/Hamilton is a really nice pairing going forward. I don't mind the extra year on his contract, now that he is healthy and we can remember how much of a solid defensive defenceman he can be.
If we can find homes for Russell and Wideman, I would love to see a rotation of Nakladal/Englland/Wotherspoon in the 5-6. The balance of team offense vs. defense. would be outstanding under those circumstances, IMO.
