Backstrom is probably the best player in that list and is a big upgrade at C. Nash is intriguing as well.
No one else stands out to me as a huge upgrade for your team.
Howdi -- I am trying to determine if any of the guys on this list are worth my time to bid for at the auction.. Given that my fwd group is the strongest part of my team and I dont have too much to spend at the auction, is it worth it to really try to upgrade here?
Here's the list of last years group of players with expiring contracts in our league.. Nash Stands out to me the most, but what about any buy low (or perceived low) options who would do better than my current list... Thanks in advance!
****** Ryan Kesler
****** Ryan Clowe
****** Brad Richards
***** Joe Pavelski
****** T.J. Oshie
****** Martin Havlat
****** Jaromir Jagr
****** Cory Conacher
****** David Clarkson
****** Joe Thornton
****** Milan Lucic
****** Danny Briere
****** Patrick Marleau
****** Brooks Laich
****** Radim Vrbata
****** Vinny Prospal
****** Nazem Kadri
****** David Perron
****** Nicklas Backstrom
****** Joffrey Lupul
****** Chris Kunitz
****** Mikhail Grabovski
****** Stephen Weiss
****** Rick Nash
****** Mikko Koivu

Agreed with Backstrom and Nash and Kunitz is a nice consolation prize if the bidding on Nash doesn't go well. Kesler is also an excellent buy low option.
