Alright, At Sean's request, here's a list of all the pending UFA D'men and Centres. Now that San Jose has traded a second rounder for at most six months of Niclas Wallin , I'm guessing that's a benchmark for what similar UFA's might require.

So the list after the jump. Sorry it looks like a tabular nightmare -- I just don't have time to format it all pretty-like.

If it's me, I'm targeting Christoph Schubert as a rental (or maybe not -- I was under the mistaken impression he'd be a German Olympian along with Erhoff, but he is not on the roster) and taking a long run at Dan Hamhuis in the summer.None of the C's do much for me, so perhaps Gillis will have to look to a larger pool. Not that Gillis runs the team to please me.
