I think long term both Bozak and Clarkson could be supplanted to lower lines if someone comes along who can bump them.
There is a 3rd line left wing open. ???? - Clarkson - Kulimen
With Bozak, JVR, Lupul, Clarkson locked in long term, and likely Kessel and Kadri to follow, how can any prospect break into our top 6 in the next 5 years?
We have so much money invested here, that it leaves me wondering what's gonna happen with guys like Colborne, Gauthier, Biggs, Leivo, Ashton, etc. trying to break in to the top 6 in the coming years?
Want Cooke but I don't know if we have any space with our RFA situation + extensions we need to give out next off-season to Kessel, Phaneuf, McClement, etc.
Slot in D'Amigo for now. Clarkson will be playing top 6.

Which is a great starting point for a Marlie promotion and jumping off point..
Kadri began the season in a 3rd line role last year.

Um forget the top 6...... what offensive gems do the marlies have left? literally nothing. I could only kind of see colborne playing 3 wing but even that is a stretch.....
Depends on your requirement to be a gem. Has to be a 1st round pick? Guys like Leivo, McKegg and Ross have the ability to be above average role players/depth scorers.
You can probably bring up both. I doubt Mclaren and Orr start together this season. We need a consistent team that can be taken into the playoffs if the Leafs make it. We immediately took out Mclaren once we lost game 1. I can see Hamilton for sure up on the squad barring any moves and maybe D'Amigo if he deserves it.Yea RC said he's most likely looking to the Marlies for someone to grab that spot. My guess is either Hamilton or D'amigo.
