Rob Schremp’s was a 1st round pick and I think hes a keeper…I feel like he might be our consolation prize for all the 1st round stars Mad Mike gave away…Sutton has been great this year but I’m afraid he might have peaked… I’m kind of up in the air about trading him…This team is in desperate need of BIG physical players and any rebuilding team needs veteran presence and Suttons fits the bill…

There have been some interesting trades that have gone on already this year, so I would imagine that Garth will get at least one good offer for Andy Sutton. If not, then maybe extending him another year or two would be an okay idea. I’m hoping that someone coughs up a first rounder for him. Wallin was worth a second, so you never know.

I’ll never understand how Tambellini ended up getting benched this season. In the first quarter of the season he was doing pretty well, it seemed like he was turning a corner, and then he was sitting again. I guess hat tricks aren’t good enough these days, and, of course, Tamby has outscored the lackluster Jon Sim playing in less than half the games Sim has played.

I’d keep Marty Biron also. Well, I would if I could trade Rolo and if DiPietro remains healthy. Some solids “ifs” right there, but Roloson seems to have some good trade value, where Biron has less. More importantly to me, though, is that Biron has a better personality and can handle being the backup. Rolly probably can’t. The last thing this team will need, basically ever, is two polarizing personalities in goal. Roloson is an intense person and already can’t handle splitting time. Biron is a good goalie and can handle the work if Rick is hurt again, so the team should sell high on Roloson.

Ya…I would have to say, Sutton is likely gonna be traded on March 3rd.

I think Sutton should be traded!! His value will never be higher then it is now and I don’t know about you but I don’t feel comfortable giving a 35 year old injury prone d-man 3 years at 3 per.

Also on Schremp based off his small performance this year I think he needs to be given more credit. The guy has 22 pts in like 41 games or something like that. Not to mention that he can do stuff with the puck on his stick that I have never seen before. See his goal against the Avs when he threw it up and batted it in.

Bruno IMO should be a cast away!! He is terrible

Freddy has been good lately I wouldn’t complain if he was a #6/7 dman.

I would explore trade opportunities with Bergy

IMO In the summer we have to mix in free agents. No team has ever successfully built through the draft and only the draft without free agents. IMO 1 per summer don’t cut it. We got lucky with Moulson and Hillen and Streit. Penguins signed a ton of people in Crosbys rookie year including Ziggy Palfy.

I think we should go after Zidlicky/Dan H on d
