Girardi, McDonagh, Del Zotto, Sauer, Erixon, Woywitka, Eminger, Stralman, Bickel, Valentenko, McIlrath (in a few years) + Lundqvist, Biron. Makes a pretty good defence. Then add our playing style and hardworking guys backchecking like Callahan, Dubinsky etc.
We need goalscoring. We got great defense with some depth.
Bobby Ryan for Staal or we just sign Parise as a UFA (if he becomes one) or just give Kreider a spot next year  .
Edit: Wouldn't it be fun to see Jordan and Marc Staal on the same team? Maybe Eric as well in the future haha   . |
Neal spent his years in Dallas at LW so shifting back wont be a problem. The top 4 is pretty strong even without Staal but I wouldn't put much faith in guys like Stralman, Bickel, etc come playoff time, imagine if Girardi got injured in the playoffs and that pushed one of the bottom pairing guys into the top 4.
