I like the "almost", the most important word in that sentence.

Should've just freaking signed Mara during the off-season

And Hamrlik as well.

O'Brien or Hannan could had fit well too on that D.

But the biggest mistake is not re-signing Gorges long-term. We gonna loose him next July.

I wouldn't give him 2 years.

Agreed on Hannan.

We won't lose him, but we actually might have to overpay for him. He's important to this team though.

Oh yea Callahan.. ummm not much to say. Woy's replacement. Hope he doesn't get claimed either.

Kyle Cumiskey is 5'10 and 185lbs...
Two-way contract only. And we already have a small Dman (also non-gritty) in Weber.

Or...
Get Paul Mara back (wouldn't blame him if he didn't want us and signed elsewhere):

Gill - Subban
Mara/Emelin - Gorges
Spacek - Diaz
