Take a look at the ages of the players on this team and it is a foolish thought. Gone would be Swan. Pridham and Pelletier. Only 3 of the following could be. Bodnarchuk,MOnast,Goyens. Bona. Pender,Hillier. Corsi. White. O'DOnnell and Yetman. You would suffer Voracek for sure and possibly MacMillan and No veteran goalie. Oh yeah and you haven't developed any young rookies outside of Randell.
