Toskala would be thrifty because UFA next season. Fernandez will likely be resigned and I don't want Roloson (old, crabby).<BR/><BR/>Center: 1) Madden, 2) Gomez, 3) Weight, 4) Zubrus<BR/><BR/>New Jersey has serious cap troubles so Madden (remember he won Selke and Stanley Cup) might be on move, as with Gomez though his stock has risen of late, Weight is expensive but would be wicked on the PP, Zubrus is a winger but wins crazy faceoffs and is useful.<BR/><BR/>D-man: 1) Witt, 2) Weinrich, 3) Stuart, 4) Vischevski<BR/>Witt wants out of Washington and is physical and experienced, Weinrich is a versatile veteran, 3) Stuart is unlikley but could move cause Boston is in serious shake-up mode, 4) hitting d-man from Anahiem is young and inexperienced and may be hard to pry away from Burke<BR/><BR/>Okies, that's my two cents ... i am heading to tonight's game vs. Buffalo!<BR/><BR/>cheers for beers,<BR/>daveo<BR/><A HREF="http://www.uncleweed.net/" REL="nofollow">Canucks Outsider podcast</A> plus other stuffDaveOhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16201099373831520989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8089180.post-1136342750060807092006-01-03T18:45:00.000-08:002006-01-03T18:45:00.000-08:00I agree with the goaltending situation however, I think you have to give your young defencemen a chance to develop and Macarthy will eventually be a number 3 or 4 guy. I also agree that the forwards don't back check enough and this causes quality scoring chances on a regular basis. I don't think they should get rid of Jovanaski but maybe put the C on his jersey. Trade Bertuzzi and try to get Owen Nolan when he comes back. Just a thought.<BR/><BR/>Stephen McNeil<BR/>C.E.O.
