Mark Streit: Offensive Defensemen, Powerplay QB, Captain.
Brad Boyes: Winger, One Trick Pony.
Rick DiPietro: 5th string goalie and salary cap albatross.

In addition to these moves, Travis Hamonic was locked up FOREVER, which is very good.
Up Front, The NYI will look like this:
BaileyTavares/Moulson
Okposo/Nielsen/Bouchard
Grabner/Nelson/McDonald
Martin/Cizikas/Clutterbuck.

Hamonic/MacDonald
Visnovsky/Hickey
Donovan/Strait
Extra: Carker
Expect to add one more Depth D and forward.
Very pleased with how this team is shaping up.
