I feel like there is a good chance Holloway is lineup by then but other then that I like it.

If Yamamoto is gonna be on the third line next year, I wouldn't pay him that much. If you have to pay him that much, don't sign Jarnkrok, or sign him for less for the third line. It's those depth contracts that always create a problem. Especially on a team where money is gonna be tight.

Both Benson and Marody will have to play significant time in the NHL this yr to be resigned, but I don’t see that happening Marody has done nothing so far in the preseason so show he’s a NHLer and Benson while he does look a little quicker is in the same boat as Marody can’t even make a impression against AHL level lineups, both will be put on waivers and will either get claimed or be Barkersfield bound, either have a future with the oilers.

My thoughts too. Benson looks like he has a chance to stick on the 4th line but Marody isn't even close to winning that job over Perlini/Sceviour/Turris at the moment. Looking like Marody is a career AHLer or needs another team to try and break through.

Colin Miller on the 2nd pairing? Are you trying to shoot for a lottery pick?!
