I think people need to remember we already have more depth than we know what to do with at the moment, especially amongst the forwards. Mangiapane, Pollock, Jankowski, Pribyl are all new comers who probably will be joining the Heat. They will join forward depth that includes: Shinkaruk(possibly), Smith, Klimchuk, Poirier, Hathaway and Carroll. By my count, thats already 10 forwards. Then you factor in 2-3 guys on AHL deals and we are fast running out of room. So if we are bringing back Hamilton, Van Brabant, Agostino(not to mention Elson and Arnold), there is going to be a real log jam in Stockton next season. Can't carry 16-17 guys playing for 12 spots can we?
