a depth backup goalie, mainly as an insurance policy for Rittich and Smith is the biggest target imo... i mean, i don't think anyone is comfortable with Gillies as the 3rd goalie are they?
otherwise, i hop Brad just tinkers a few things rather than making any major overhauls to a team that currently sits 2nd in the NHL... the worst thing you can do is mess with the team's chemistry... if you can make an acquisition using picks/prospects that would make sense... Trading core pieces becomes more risky imo.... previously, i was hoping for Eberle, but i don't think that happens anymore, especially with Frolik, seemingly, happy again and the NYI currently vying for the top spot in the East
Bennett alluded to the how close this team is

"Our team's really comfortable right now," Bennett said. "I think what makes us so dominant is that we have all lines that can contribute and everyone's on the same page. And this is the closest group that I've ever played with. Our team is so close and it's fun coming to the rink every day."

messing around simply for the new shiny toy makes little sense if you are sitting 2nd overall.
