I'm not going to completely rule that out with McPhee's history with Brouwer. I still think its possible they select Brouwer but I'm not as convinced he's the favourite.
I think the Stajan talk certainly has some merit. It's hard to know how's he viewed by VGK, a lot would depend on their scouting reports on him.
All of Stajan, Engelland and Brouwer would be good vets for VGK. I think Shinkaruk and Kulak are longer shots to be taken as they are waiver eligible and far from guarantees to make anybody's roster next year. I don't think their waiver eligibility makes them unpickable because it is often easy to sneak players such as those through waivers right before the season but there does pose a bit of risk in taking those players.
I think you guys may have convinced me that Stajan may be the most likely to be taken.

I wouldn't be surprised if they don't take anyone lol.
