Starting Goalie  
 
Will have to trade for one.  
 
Backup Goalie  
 
I'd like to believe either Hayes or Priestner will be traded in some kind of package for a #1 starter, the other one would them be the backup.  
 
Defense  
 
Robak - Unfilled - possibly Kiril Gotovets  
 
Melnychuk - Bestland  
 
Miller - Robidoux  
 
I would trade for a 19 year old D-man to play with Robak on the top unit that way we can keep Calvert,Fehr,Green,or Lewadniuk if Calvert doesn't come back. The 2nd and 3rd Defense pairings could also be improved via trade. You'd think Robidoux and Schneider would likely be the ones involved along with some prospects or draft picks.  
 
Forwards  
 
Calvert-Schenn-Glennie  
Fehr-Green-Stone  
Depape-Wilson-Walker  
Hale-Hall-Ciarelli  
 
If Calvert turns Pro Lewy would fit in there on the top two lines. In losing Lowery, Erb, Cowan, Jefferies, and possibly Lewadniuk we will be losing a lot of grit and I don't know exactly who's gonna replace that, those guy will definitely me missed. Like Adam mentioned there are a few Wild Cards that could figure in when all is said and done. The 3rd and 4th lines are pretty inexperienced and it wouldn't hurt to trade for a few veterans with a bit of grit and some offensive upside to play with Depape on the 3rd line. With Hale, Ciarelli, and another guy providing some good grit and in your face style hockey on the 4th line. If those changes would be made I'd feel pretty confident in reaching between 45-50 wins.
