Timonen's a free agent and may retire

I expect both Laughton and Gostisbehere to be on the team

If we make any type of run and have a good offseason, I think Kimmo returns

Good god that is awesome.

I loved that story, especially since Roenick has been on my shit list for his tears of joy after the Hawks beat us.

Downie is out indefinitely. hmm

Kimmo may retire, or he could come back on another 1 year deal. I think a lot will depend on how this season ends.

Streit and Vinny just signed long term deals with the team. I could see Vinny being moved, reportedly a big reason he came here was to play for Lavy in his system. I believe he has a NMC, so he would have to agree to any trade.

B. Schenn needs to be signed, same as Gus and any other RFA that they have. Downie will be allowed to walk as he is not fitting in.

I think Laughton could be up, but the problem is this team already has too many centers, so where do you put him? Obviously Giroux is your top guy, then you have Schenn/Vinny, then Coots, don't think I want Laughton to develop with guys like Rinaldo and Hall on his line. Maybe he can be moved to winger, I am not sure.

With Gostisbehere, I am not sure he fits in to the plans unless injuries happens for next season or maybe down the stretch. You already are committed to MacDonald, Grossmann, Schenn, Coburn, Streit, and maybe Kimmo. If you add in Gus, no room for Ghost. Of course, they could move someone, but it seems like they tried with Coburn last year and I am not sure he has helped his value any this year compared to what it was last year when they didn't make a move.

I could see Emery coming back on another 1 year deal.

Would've liked to see what he could do without getting concussed in his first game. At least they shed a few contract years.

Wow circles

going tonight. #blessed

Basically Akeson has been very very good.
