Yes, and no #2.
Sakic is clearly going for quantity over quality hoping that one of them will pull a Holden.
Which is kinda Pejorative Slured considering the D is the biggest problem on the team, and the problem is quality not quantity.
They seem to be adding every D man they can find that doesn't really address the problem of a lack of another legit two way guy in the top 4.
Locks
EJ - one way
Hejda - one way
Barrie - two way ($67.5k)
Stuart - one way
Holden - two way ($150k)
Battling for a spot (max 2-3 guys stay)
Guenin - one way
Wilson - one way
Redmond - one way
Noreau - one way
Elliott - two way waiver eligible ($67.5k)
Siemens - two way ($70k)
Gervais - two way ($200k)
So that's 7 D men on one way deals, plus two guys in Holden and Barrie who aren't getting sent down, plus Elliott who's waiver eligible and will surely be claimed if sent down. That's 10 D men that aren't getting sent down, and that's not even including Wilson who they'd be paying $2.375M to play in the minors.
Something definitely has to happen here, unless Josh lost his mind and got talked into throwing millions at depth defenders.
