Now that Boynton's signed and Lars Jonsson has been tagged by someone who actually has seen him (eliteprospects) as the best young defenseman in the SEL. I have to tell you if we can just keep Murphy's Law, a couple of knee on knee checks, and the SI cover out of this the Broons have the makings of quite possibly one damn interesting, entertaining, and outstanding goalie/defense assembling. Boynton is already up and running as a guy I want on my team; Jillson is getting it and looks like he can wade in without extra weight on his shoulder the way Nick did; we know Jonsson is no longer a bust and may even get into the Broons top 10 prospects list next year

; Shaone Morrisonn and Milan Jurcina are going to see more ice than the Titanic this year in Providence. Toivonen has everyone thinking we may actually have a legit elite goalie for the first time since Dafoe was here (ok, but he was very good two out of four years- very good) and Raycroft accoriding to a Russ Conway column in which he asked scouts got very positive reports.
And there are other goalies in the system and defenseman who could emerge- such as Makela or Kutlak or Brown....and of course, if he could ever make it back Jonathan Girard has outstanding offensive ability.
Meister would finally see some transition especially with Jonsson, Morrisonn, Jillson and Boynton back on D.
Yesterday I was taking out the winter hats and the heavier fall coats- today, its all sun and games.
