I don't think there are as many passengers as you make it out to be. The top 2 lines are clicking, and if Backlund comes back it solidifies the 3rd, shut down line. As far as bringing in AHL players, the Wranglers are pretty decimated already, with only Kerins and Stromgren as potential options upfront. I'm more concerned about the Lomberg - Rooney line. It almost cost us the game against the NYI, and a couple more throughout the year.
PS: hopefully Weegar isn't out for any length of time.
