You benching David Fischer, or has he already retired from his HOF career at this point?

 

[calder candidate]

Only 2-3 will make it at most and one of them will likely be on another team.

 

[Bacchus1]

So, Petry & Savard just signed 4 year contracts. Unless they are traded, retire, or go on long term injury, they will be here in 3 and 4 years time. We may not re-sign them for a 5th year though.

Those threads never pan out as expected.

I'd wager a good amount of money that most of the guys who are going to be on our D 3 to 5 years from now are not even a part of the organization as we speak.

This, who would have said 5 yrs ago that our D would be composed of Petry/Eddy/Chiarot/Savard/Romanov/Kulak and not Weber/Sergachev/Beaulieu/Juulsen/Pareryn/Lernout

If two or three of them can pan out , I will be glad.

Guhle, Harris (if he finally comes to MTL), and possibly Norlinder.

At worst, we will end up with Guhle.

Romanov has to show a more offensive side, too.

Petry, Savard and Edmundson will be there for a while.

Chiarot, Kulak and Wideman contracts are up after this year, so there will be space if any are ready.

He actually just retired maybe a week ago.

Also, if 1/4th of these guys pan out it will be a miracle

 

[Colezuki]

Everyone always wants a full lineup of prospects, but neglects the prospects sometimes bomb, I'd rather have 2/3 of those guys hit and bring in another via FA

 

[WinterLion]

It is going to be very interesting. I'm not sure that there are any real studs in the group, but there is certainly more depth than there has been in a very long time. I hope the group can become really solid and grow together like what happened in Nashville.
