Ohhh a good ole debate

So now I am debating how young/new the Thrashers will be next year. Basically we can sign back our entire team, minus Tkachuk, but I don't think that would be the best thing to do.

Guys I think would be a good start:
Dupuis
Belanger
Kozlov
Larsen
Exelby
Hnidy

So now we have 7 fowards (assuming rucchin is not back)...5 spots left
and 4 defensemen...2 spots left

Look for us to sign a big name for the Kovy line and perhaps another vet for the checking line (or a sim/vigier)...so that leaves us with 3 spots for forwards

Popovic is apparently a lock, along with Sterling...

That will leave us with 2 forward openings 1 defensive (plus 2 scratches assuming boulton is the healthy scratch)

This leaves us with 5 spots left to be filled with vets or rookies....and I think this will be the debate of the summer.

As much as I want the Sims, Vigiers, and McCarthy's all back...I think we may have to say goodbye to them to sign up some bigger names.

maybe they can get tkachuk anyways, i have loved him ever since he stood up for hossa after the canadians ran him into the boards and there was no call.
I love him
