I wouldn't give him a raise on his $3.25 but at $3.25, that's not bad.
If we could somehow convince Jonathan Ericsson, that would be a great pickup.
Maybe some more physical presence on the back end with...LOL...SOB!
Ian White?

The Wiz wouldn't be a bad pick-up at the right price.
Ian White is a likable guy, but he's undersized and absolutely gotten eaten alive against the Canucks in the playoffs. He and Ballard are about the same size, but I think Ballard has more upside and does have the hip check. I'd rather have Ballard play a larger role next year, get Edler to work on his accuracy, and sign a stay-at-home D who's more mobile than Rome or Alberts.
Oh, and I completely forgot about Ryan Parent who's a legitimate top-6 D who was a victim of our depth last season.
