We\u2019re not out looking to just give away players. I don\u2019t know how many younger players, mid 20s to younger, that are going to be available that we could acquire, but we\u2019re going to look at all possibilities, sticking to that plan of staying younger, getting a group together that can come together over the next couple of years as a team and start to get in a position that we should be in, but at this point in time, the market is very slow. Patrik does the deals, he talks to the GMs, but talking to a couple of other people that hold the same position as me, they are surprised too, how slow the market\u2019s moving. So it may end up that it\u2019s a slower deadline because of some of the rule changes and how teams have to approach things going forward for the playoffs, or maybe it\u2019s just going to open up here next week, getting closer to the deadline.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u201cWe\u2019ll be as active as possible if, in fact, something makes sense for our return.
