Not dismissing this year's teams chances, but I'm just curious, what players of interest are going to be FA's this offseason?? Just wondering, and is anyone else think we'll get 1-2 very solid additions???

BTW, totally unrelated, but I love Brad Boyes. That dude needs a contract extension, and I hope he stays in B'lo for a while. Great move!!

Boyes is signed for another year anyway...
There will be some guys taht step up from Portland full time........
Mancari, and Kassian for sure....

Neidermeyer, Connolly, Grier, I think are good as gone....
I think they bring in a #1 D guy and a front liner big name if they can.....

Kassian isn't in Portland but he should definitely see some NHL time next season from juniors.

I realize that.
He will be brought in as a split player where he is in Portland and the NHL...
Kind of how the Sabres broke in Gerbe and Ennis.....
I ilke his style of play......Bertuzzi like..

yes. Unless they identify somebody there really isn't a lot of huge UFA names out there next year.
