Franson + Conditional 1st (2014) may be a starting point, given the contract Statsny is on.

Avs requests for Staz won't be that much less. He's still our best center, we still need him to help the younger guys develop, and we still want to be able to roll 3 strong lines now that we have the wingers for it. So if someone wants staz we'd still be looking for a LHD to partner with EJ on our first pairing. Franson and Gunnarson just don't fit the profile.
