Im not sure there's a spot at the dance for any of them to be honest.
What is everyone’s best guess as to which of the following oldies sign with an NHL team and who retires?

"Cleavage is like the sun. You can look, but dont stare.. Unless you're wearing sunglasses."
Looking through the teams there are really only a few spots where it could work:
- Chicago (Subban and Delia)
- Ottawa (backup to Murray)
- St Louis (backup to Binnington if Husso isn't good to go)
- Tampa (I heard McElhinney was considering retirement but can't find that anywhere now)
Only other one I’d add is Anaheim- they need a backup. Otherwise, they may have to wait for an injury to crop up to get a shot.
I think Miller finds work somewhere. Anderson is going to retire, and Howard just won't get an offer this year.

I'm on the same wave length as EB, although I'd flip Miller and Anderson. I can see Miller drifting off into retirement (already living where he wants to live with his family) and Anderson getting one or two more years as a mentor.
Agree Howard probably finds some playing time in the minors perhaps/over seas and may get a shot if injuries take place.
I'm confused as to why you guys think Howard isn't going to sign somewhere.....

Think about how hard it is to pull those numbers off.
I think Anderson is done.
The Athletic said Miller is apparently training fairly hard after a discussion with Murray so I can see the Ducks bringing him back. If they don't I think he retires as well.
Howard I would think has the best chance, he at least seems to have the greatest desire to continue by all accounts. HR has a good list of options, Chicago at the top makes a lot of sense.

Yeah Ottawa is out on these old guys. I still think we'll see some goalie movement via trade before the season. That'll open up a spot of two.
To my mind Chicago is indeed a good candidate as are Boston, Carolina, Arizona, and CBJ. These are all pending possible post trade needs...

Anderson retires.
Howard will not retire, but won't get a contract. And shouldn't. He's this year's Steve Mason - doesn't know yet that he's been toast for a while.
Miller might be back for one more year as a backup.
