I agree, but I still don't bring back Boyes, or Aucoin, or Reasoner, or Boulton.
I think there needs to be room on the roster for 2 or 3 of Strome, Nino, Nelson, Ullstrom to BOTH earn a spot and be expected to grow into a more productive player over a full 82 games. Cizikas is a great example of a player who's gotten better and better!
This strategy doesn't work as well in a 48 game compressed schedule - which has been great for prospect development, but makes more sense over 82 games.
I think we have to bring back all the defensemen though, including Martinek. I think we never have enough. We will probably lose 1 to waivers anyway.
