We've discussed most of these already.

Centers I think might be available that are not on the list:
MTL - continue the rebuild:
Dvorak - 1 x $4.45M, he's 28 and in need of a change of scenery. Could be a pump and dump candidate for half a season.
CBJ - might want to trade 1 for a winger. Only so many C spots with Monahan and Fantilli
K. Johnson - 3 x $1.8M, He's 22, and had a pretty bad year last year. He's on a bit of a hot start, but still isn't great 5 on 5 IMO. Mostly played on Sillinger's wing this year.
C. Sillinger - 2 x $2.25M, He's 21, and is in a pretty similar situation to Johnson. He's still taking on water 5 on 5, but his age and draft pedigree make him a potential buy low candidate.
PHI
N. Cates - 1 x $2.625M, He's 25, He was a healthy scratch in 4 of PHI's games this season. I think he can be a good defensive player in the bottom 6. He was better playing wing last year, than he was playing C 2 years ago, despite a 38P campaign at C.
