Damn, the UFA pool is pretty bleak for wingers. The best options (apart from Kovalchuk...who isn't coming here...) are guys like Kariya, Frolov, Tanguay and Ray Whitney. Past that you're going to Colby Armstrong, Lee Stepniak, Alex Ponikorovsky, Maxim Afineganov...

I wouldn't mind Tanguay if he'll take something like $2 for second line duty. Whitney is too damn old, as is Kariya. Frolov is too expensive at the expected $5m and the rest are pretty shitty for the money. We need a guy that's gritty and quick to play with Hodgson and Raymond on the third line and a LW to play with Kesler + Samuelsson on the 2nd.
