My line up, if the money is good with Franson and Raymond on one year deals(a few bucks sliding this way or that). My thoughts are that if McLaren is injured for more then ten games (which he probably will end up taking to recover from that broken finger) then that provides enough space to bring up Trevor Smith for time he will miss. Any more call ups are going to have to be played on an injury by injury basis. Hoping that isn't the case, but not much you can do when it happens. It would be nice if Clarkson's suspension doesn't count against the cap hit, but that being an unlikely scenario this is how I see the team lining up.
