Filppula at $5, 4 or 3 M per season - who cares? After this playoff I'm thinking we are better off without him. Spend the money on someone that can actually help the team. Clarkson for example.
Flip has been so invisible this season I plum forgot about him. If he takes a 2-3 season at 3-3.5 million, keep him, anything more than that, let him walk.
I just say let him walk...we need his roster spot.
If Dano will take a reduced salary (reduced..) I'd like him back. But he's the only one of the veterans who I'd bring back, because he showed some heart and got some results.
Let Fil go, buyout Sammy, get a healthy Helm and DeKeyser back. Continue the growth from within, I'd love to see a guy like Clarkson brought in, but the season just ended. We'll see what unfolds.
Miller and Eaves deserve to be set free. They could play 2nd to 3rd line minutes on other teams. I wouldnt mind seeing them on the Griffins for injury call up, but they would have to want that role.
There is no chance Sheahan is playing in the NHL next year unless in the case of an injury call up
Kind of a cool idea to get the Moosehead line, but you're overpaying for both. Take Jarnkrok and Sproul out of the equasions and then we're talking. You can't give away the 1st rounder and 7 players for 2. And I'm still big on Smith and Tatar and Patterson could be better than Mrazek.
