I think we keep Mittelstadt long-term. If he can improve in the dot he's a legit 2nd line centre. That gives us incredible depth down the middle. I'd say keep Savoie in the AHL as 1st call up in case of injury and Benson unfortunately has to play in the WHL again, but he needs to add strength undoubtedly so more development time will assist with that. Kulich and Rosen are full-time top 9 contributors next season, no doubt in my mind. Ryan Johnson makes the jump and Clifton is a scratch more often than not.

With the young players coming up I think Jokiharju is moved, unless we can sign him as a 3rd pair guy for around 3-3.5 mil. Otherwise I'd move him for a centre with good faceoff stats and PK abilities. Krebs I don't see a spot for moving forward, would swap him for a RHD prospect or package him and other prospects in a big trade for a young top 4 RHD (I don't see that as a likely thing). To round out the top 4 then I say you go hard after guys like Roy or Pesce.
