Where else is there room?

Is Lazar going to sit after we just paid a second for him? Infact, I'm not sure it would really help maximize on Lazar's potential by plugging him on the 4th line, but whatever.

I doubt Gully breaks from the 3M line and he already said how that RW spot next to Gaudreauhan is Ferland's to lose.

Versteeg built great chemistry playing on Bennett's LW and I doubt management is going to sit Brouwer or Stajan with those contracts.

Where does Jankowski fit in?
Any of the spots highlighted, maybe higher who knows. Treliving might have spent a 2nd round on Lazar but Jankowski was selected as a first round pick, neither matters both will have to earn their spot.

Also you're forgetting injuries. Every fanbase thinks they have an overflow of depth in August, then training camp starts. You wont get through it without at least two guys being hurt.

Double also, management doesn't sit contracts, coaches do. Wideman rode the pine for the vast majority of the stretch drive, those two guys aren't any different and will sit if need be.
