Re-unite Parise and Suter with their olympic teammates Paul Stastny and Erik Johnson

But really, re-sign all our own guys. RFA: Ryan O'Reilly, Matt Duchene, Peter Mueller, Steve Downie, Jamie McGinn, Mark Olver, Erik Johnson and UFA: Jay McClement, David Jones, Hejduk(if he comes back).

Ryan Wilson, Kevin Porter, Shane O'Brien, Cody McLeod, and Matt Hunwick can go. Although I wouldn't oppose Wilson coming back as a 5th~7th D.

It's too bad the FO takes forever to sign our RFAs, or else we might do something in the free agency. Also with the uncertainty of the salary cap number, doubt they make big moves in the AF.

Everything.

Need a go-to scorer, more solid defensemen, a second line center that stays healthy, all the young players to develop and make a solid contribution starting next season, and be able to actually convince an impact free agent or two to sign. But other than that, you know...not much.
