I always worry about signing anyone who has a real good contract year but before that is just so so. IF we get Ryan Smith I hope he can keep his game going and we don't end up with another Brouwer on our hands. Sadly I suspect that Ryan Smith will naturally take his foot off the gas having received his retirement contract. When will these GM's learn!

I would much rather see the team concentrate on integrating the young guys ... Dube, Mangiapane, Gawdin? Foo, into the lineup.
