I am not Paul Holmgren...the trouble I have consistently spelling his surname should make that evident for most. If I was Holmgren this is how I would approach the remainder of the regular season.
1. Don't think about blow out trades for rental players to make a run. The cost will not be worth it.
2. Any trades made, most likely Fedotenko or Briere have to bring back a draft pick and or a defense prospect as part of the return.
3. Have serious discussion with Gagne about his contract needs/desires.
4. Bring up Wellwood and Gustafsson and let i be known that they are to be played barring injury.
5. Harry Z also to be played.
6. Buy out Pronger to create cap space.
Oh well...it doesn't look like much...but when looking at the upcoming draft classes and the number of picks that could lead to actual prospects....
Oh, and DO NOT TRADE Couturier or either Schenn or Voracek. Along with Giroux they represent the future.
