With $13M in cap space, I just don't see the need to pay assets to dump Armia & Hoffman, especially since RHP and Roy are still not NHL locks. If you really want them gone, their buyouts are relatively cheap, so buying out Hoffman and the next-to-nothing penalty is more beneficial than losing Norlinder. As for Petry and Drouin, I think they should hold onto them unless they get offers that are worth it. While Bloom is nice, I don't think he, alone, has more upside than Petry has to this team by eating minutes and sheltering young defensemen. Phil Myers is negative value, while Drouin with some retention could be interesting at the deadline (if healthy).
