I don't think we should be singing any of them to long term deals just saying that bit parts staying isn't a endorsement.

It did mention names
“ Once Huska is confirmed, Conroy — who’s made it clear that he won’t let a player walk out the door as a UFA the way Johnny Gaudreau did last summer — can go to the seven players a year away from reaching UFA (including Mikael Backlund, Elias Lindholm and Noah Hanifin) and bluntly ask what they have in mind.
None would have stayed if Sutter had remained as coach. Huska will be a popular choice. But will his presence be enough to change their minds?“
I agree none of them should get long term extensions but perhaps short term.
