If we get a veteran like MAF then I say swing for a home run rather than a base hit: go with the ones with the biggest longterm potential. That shortlist includes one of the listed options: Saros.

Well, we did end up with one of the five options.
Not really, because it seems they don't want to sign him.
They should at least offer Berube a cheap 2-way contract to prove himself in the AHL after the drama he suffered with his former team.
I would prefer Berube over Patera.
Not sure why you're bringing up Patera as there's not a chance McPhee is even thinking about putting him in the AHL yet. Maybe in 2-3 years but it would be ridiculous to even consider putting an 18yo goalie in there like Patera. Berube is a very good AHL option and would be what the Chicago Wolves would want as the starter.
