[quote name='doubledown']Hasek retired
Drake MIGHT retire
McCarty is a FA
Filpulla is a FA
Downey is a FA
Chelios is a FA (but should resign)
A few others are FA, but they did not lose anyone. Ty Conklin should be a solid backup, did great for Pittsburgh. They also resigned Stuart.
Honestly, the lineup is stacked as it stands.[/quote]
Flip is RFA. The wings will surely lock him for the long term.
They still have to resign Quincy,Meech, and Erickson..who all should be resigning.
Conklin was signed to give Howard competition. If he can beat out conklin than he is ready..if not.i dont mind letting him sit another year at Grand Rapids.
