Nosferatu
Faith, Hope & Love
So, what to do heading into next season.
Granlund, Niederreiter, Haula and Folin will get new contracts and maybe Schroeder as well. Hanzal, Prosser and White are probably gone.
We have to find a way to move Parise, his style of play and his age make him a huge injury risk going forward, I believe he does have a no trade clause but I would hope he would waive that if they were able to move him. They aren't going to trade him that's just wishful thinking on my part.
We also need to find a taker for Scandella, he was horrible and he's signed for three more years at $4M per.
Who do we protect from the expansion draft?
Obviously Dubnyk isn't going anywhere.
On defense I think they protect Suter who they have to protect then Spurgeon and Dumba, that leaves Scandella, Folin and Brodin available.
We have to protect Parise, Koivu and Pominville, so four more? So Niederreiter would be one as would Granlund and Staal and probably Coyle so we could lose Zucker or Haula unless Pominville would waive his no movement clause then we could protect another forward. I think Zucker is the one we end up losing.
We need to bring in another solid scoring forward and a top four defensemen IMO.
