I like the 1st one except for expecting 2 of the prospects to be ready right away.

When does everyone expect Mitteldstadt to be NHL ready?

Having O'Reilly as the 3rd line center is definitely intriguing. I think that I would like to see this happen as I see ROR as less dependent on his wingers being good, because he makes them better. Also, Pominville+ROR should get us a bunch of points. Also I like Kane with Reinhart.

1) I believe that yes it is good enough. However, we could also move Reinhart to center, and send girgs to the LW. This would make the Lw/C stronger but weaken the RW2) As is I do not think the Lw is strong enough, but if we sign Vanek it could become manageable.

I would be ecstatic if this happened, but 112 points sounds a little high

Anybody want any of these? http://www.spotrac.com/nhl/free-agents/left-wing/ufa/available/

Pessimist much?

What if it was something like: Kane-Eichel-Baptiste(if deemed ready) Nylander(if ready)-ROR-Okposo Pouliout-Reinhart-Pomminstein Girgensons-Larsson-Bailey Scandella-Risto McCabe-Antipin Baloo-Bogo This is hoping that the young Guns step up a lot, and that we somehow get rid of Moulson. Also with this, I like our 3rd line much better.

Personally I would like 1 or 2 more Lw signings. One to fill out our chart with Kane-pouliout-Girg and another to create competition/more freedom to trade Kane.

I'm definitely for trading Lehner if we can get someone to bite. Lehner can be a solid goalie but is useless in a shootout. Unfortunately I only made it to 2 games last year, and both ended with us losing in a shootout with Lehner not stopping a single shot.
