We need Jimmy to play up to his potential. If that happens we are a playoff team.
Weiss is over rated. He's having a crappy year.
Ryder would be redundant with Brunner in the lineup
- Brunner has 10 goals, Ryder has 6 goals
Jarome is old and has 3 goals. Plus Calgary always overvalues their players.
Cole Montreal is fighting for the #1 seed, they ain't sellers.
Connolly appears to be in the minors
Hemsky wow another year another Ales Hemsky trade proposal!
So let's get down to brass tacks.
1. Lubomir Visnovsky - broken record here but the guy is lethal on the power play.
2. Mike Ribeiro - final year of contract. Strong PP performer but more of a passer. Could be the second line center during a playoff run.
3. Matthew Lombardi - PK'ing dynamo who can contribute on the PP. Final year of contract. Good on FOs too.
4. Anton Lander - young, but looks like a very good PK'ing forward. Would Edmonton part with him? Let's find out. If the Oil won't work a deal let's go after Matt Calvert with the BJs.
5. Raffi Torres - final year of his deal and producing quite nicely 5v5. Also plays with a bit of an edge. Torres and Tootoo would make for a line no one wants to go up against.
