I think an easy way to add inexpensive talent will be to deal with Seattle. If you can offer them some futures (and especially guys who are waiver-exempt and can play in the AHL) they will be willing to part with NHL talent (because they're going to have so much of it). Might be a great way to add a nice middle 6 forward and perhaps a second goalie. The two players I use are an example, not necessarily the only options.

Would love to see Robertson stick in the bottom-6 to provide some offence down there. I could see Nylander sliding around a bit to 3C on occasion to add some scoring punch down there and spread out the offence.

Granlund may get more somewhere else, but who knows at this point. Bogosian may not be the answer, but he was well liked last year and would provide some insurance in case Liljegren isn't ready at all next year.

Working with Seattle to acquire some players you like on the cheap is a realistic option and this provides some increased depth (and different player types) without doing a ton of surgery to the roster. If it doesn't work, you have lots of money next season to go in a different direction.
