[QUOTE=Roof-Daddy;5811112]Will be nice when they get Johnny, Mony and Colborne's contracts done so the picture becomes clearer, but this is roughly what it looks like at the moment if Tkatchuk and Shinkaruk can force their way onto the roster.


1. Gaudreau (6,750,000) - Monahan (6,750,000) - Shinkaruk (863,333)
2. Colborne (2,800,000) - Backlund (3,575,000) - M. Frolik (4,300,000)
3. Tkatchuk (925,000) - S. Bennett (925,000) - M. Ferland (825,000)
4. L. Bouma (2,200,000) - M Stajan (3,125,000) - J Jooris (1,000,000)

Extra - Bollig (1,250,000) - Hathaway (619,000)
In Limbo - Raymond (3,150,000)

1. Giordano (6,750,000) - Hamilton (5,750,000)
2. TJ Brodie (4,650,400) - Wideman (5,250,000)
3. Jokipakka (900,000) - Engelland (2,916,667)

Extra - Wotherspoon (900,000)
In Limbo - Smid (3,500,000)

1. Elliot (2,500,000)
2. Ortio (800,000)

Total against cap - $73,045,400 [\QUOTE]


This list of names is pretty much exactly what I'm thinking it'll look like. I'd move some names around (Colborne and Bennett up, Shinkaruk and Backlund down) but I think this is going to be pretty much the group we go into the season with.

Maybe a Pribyl somewhere after an injury? Perhaps a depth signing of some kind? But that group looks like one that can and should compete for a non-wildcard playoff spot.
