williams = 1st rd pick + prospect
stoll = 2nd rd pick or prospect
regehr = 2nd rd pick or prospect
greene = 2nd or 3rd rd pick
richards = phaneuf
king = 2nd pick or prospect
clifford = 2nd rd pick or prospect
nolan = 4th rd pick
RETOOL!
then you can worry about trading some of those prospects and/or picks to either fetch a roster player or to combine picks and move up the draft
this team could turn it around so fast if it wanted to
Gaborik - Kopitar - XXX
Pearson - Carter - Toffoli
XXX - XXX - Brown
XXX - Shore - Lewis
Doughty - Muzzin
Phaneuf - XXX (or Voynov)
Martinez - McNabb
Forbort
Gravel
Miller
Quick
Jones
possible targets with said picks/prospects ... Boedker, E. Staal,
if Voynov isn't with the Kings, Myers could be targeted, or give a chance to a guy like Emelin
and actually there are alot of available UFA Defencemen this season
Michalek
Methot
Beauchemin
McQuaid
Benoit
Sekera
Oduya
Hejda
Petry
Boychuk
Martin
Ehrhoff
Jackman
Franson
Green
so even if we can't trade Richards for Phaneuf (or if some think Phaneuf isn't an interesting choice, we can still buy out RIchards and still have room on the cap if we trade away Williams, Stoll, Regehr, King, Clifford
