The way I see it, right now there are three guys that need to be "sheltered": Kovalchuk, Carter, and Kempe. If we can get these guys to be productive and find chemistry, our forwards will be looking pretty good. I still think we should consider moving Iafallo off the top line and trying something else. I still think we ought to trade Kovalchuk if we can. Retain 50% on him and try to get a pick of some kind. Then we could roll:
Carter - Kopitar - Brown
Wagner - Amadio - Toffoli
Iafallo - Lizotte - Grundstrom
Clifford - Kempe - Lewis
