Just for fun, players who meet depth OGWAC criteria and who are on expiring contracts:

- Jason Spezza
- Jason Pominville
- Marc Methot
- Carl Gunnarsson
- Patrick Maroon
- Roman Polak
- Thomas Vanek
- Brian Gibbons
- Drew Stafford
- Jay Bouwmeester

Those are all guys who could probably tread water at 7-9 minutes in a fill-in role, at least. Guys like Spezza/Pominville/Methot/Vanek/Maroon could probably do a bit more. They'd all probably come cheap. There's variable desirability and quality there, but those are the guys who meet the criteria of depth forwards/defenesemen and who are up after the year, without Cups.

Of course, a player's trophy cabinet should not really play a factor -- this is just an exercise on my part.

Good list...nice work.

Pominville would sure check a lot of boxes for this club as a depth guy.
