Well, I agree - there's no world in which Jagr or Brouwer get sent down. However, if Poirier goes lights out, it seems likely to me that Stajan could easily become the 13th forward, and then Lazar gets shifted to 4th line Centre duty and then bingo - there's your roster spot for Poirier. You then ride that situation out, and if the season dictates that hey, we should trade Stajan or someone...you act accordingly.
