IMHO, the FA's the most likely candidates to be back with the big club would be Carter (unless the deal was sweet enough), Jones, and Smith. My struggle is between Carter and Umberger. That's going to be a gamble. I hope that Cote, Boulerice, and Fitz are gone. I think that Dowd will back since he can at least fill a 4th line role and Vandermeer has history with the club so I see another year for him. Don't know what to think about the AHL'ers. Picard has the best chance since he can get the 1st pass out, Potulny and then Guenin. Again, just MO. One of the biggest questions will be what to do with Hatch. A lot of $$$ tied up in him that could be used somewhere else but I don't think it's a good idea for the club do him like Goat. Anyone think he could be traded at the deadline or before?

Personally... I would do the following. Sign Umberger to a 4-5 year extension at a good price (very doable in my opinion). Extend Lupul's contract in the off season as well. I would let Carter go, whether it is via a trade or letting him fall to RFA, I think the other two make more sense for the club at this point. I would also start the year with Potulny centering the 3rd line next year and go from there. As for the defense, there are too many possibilities to possibly even give an opinion on them in my opinion so I just wont... but I want Timonen, Kukkonen, Coburn, Parent to go nowhere. Just my personal opinion.
