We should sign both SK and Semin to 3 year deals. When one of them disappears for a 3 week stretch, the other will be on and vice-versa. If we get lucky and they're both "on", we'll score 9 goals a game.

In all seriousness - a week ago I wouldn't have touched Semin with a 10 foot pole. But with the decent forward options all off the board, Suter gone - I don't see why not. It's a risk, absolutely, but with the transfer agreement he can't bolt on us, and the possible rewards at this point outweight the risks as I see it.

It's very likely Semin could put up Bobby Ryan type #'s without having to give up several key pieces of our future.

Sign Semin and then focus on finding that #2/#3 Dman to shore up the D (Jbo, Coliacovo?) and provide Josi insurance, and we'd be good to go.
