I think that ship sailed, no?
Three big RFA's
one guy playing great, getting better every year, great attitude, face of the franchise
one guy played great in rookie year, minimal improvement year to year, not sure if he even wants to be here, trade-able
one guy who showed promise in his rookie year, huge sophomore slump, big, needs to show a lot more for any kind of long term contract
No. He has been playing much better the last 10 games or so. I'm not saying I'm sold on him or that he has turned the corner yet but there are hopeful signs.
More likely he is a 4th liner next year and gone the year after but the improvement is enough to hold the decision a while longer.
Depending on this draft we may have to choose between a hole at top 6 LW or a hole at 3C. If MP plays LW we have a couple of this year's disappointments who may bounce back next year and fill the 3C hole.
