This is a steep price, but it isn't a rental situation. The core is pretty much set, in particular if they keep Backlund at a decent price. Lots of D and G depth coming up, but the Forwards will need to step. I think that is true no matter what. It probably should keep us out of the free agent market July 1, which should make some happy.

O.K. there has been a lot of talk on whether or not MacTavish has actually done a good job for us, most fans on this board are very basic in their analysis and I feel would change their opinion entirely if the team was successful.
