Agree with much of what BBO says, so copying his format.
Out Via Trade: Ceci, Nurse (although I know nobody will take him), Kane
Out Via Buyout: Campbell
Out Via FA: Desharnais, Foegele, Carrick, Gagner, Perry, Stetcher
UFA's To Hopefully Retain: Henrique, Brown, Janmark, Pickard (if he's around $1 million AAV)
Players To Give a NHL Push To: Holloway, Broberg, Lavoie, maybe Rodrigue
Players to Target Via UFA: I don't know enough, and haven't research enough for this category
Players to Target Via Trade: I don't know enough, and haven't research enough for this category
This team is old as is, oldest in the league in fact. We have one more year with McDrai, and we have a decision to make: do we trot out the same players and hope for better luck next year, or do we start the rebuild right now? The current core likely has one more run in it, even with an older player like Kane. But we don't have 2 more runs as is, even if McDrai both re-sign. This is an old team, and we need to start cutting it down and replacing with younger players, its just whether we do it this year or next.
