Some realistic targets... We probably are going to offer Ruutu, Tlusty, some picks and Victor Rask. And Jay Harrison and Drayson Bowman as throw-ins.
From Flames: Matt Stajan, Lee Stempniak, Mikael Backlund, Lance Bouma
From Sabres: Drew Stafford, Brian Flynn, Steve Ott
From Stars [sadly]: Ray Whitney and Erik Cole
From Panthers: Brad Boyes, Tomas Flaischmann, Tom Gilbert
From Habs: David Desharnais and Daniel Briere
From Predators: Nick Spalling, Gabriel Bourque, David Legwand
From Oilers: Ales Hemsky, Sam Gagner, Jeff Petry
From Devils: Jacob Josefson, Mark Fayne
From Islanders: Josh Bailey, Michael Grabner
From Senators: Colin Greening and Cory Conacher
From Jets: Devin Setoguchi
Flames, Oilers, Preds and Isles looks like good trade partners for us.
If we can dump Harrison, Ruutu and Bowman, that would be ideal world. Palushaj is better hockey player than Bowman easily. Another D could bump Bellemore as a 7th guy...
