I believe they won't be able to move Ward which will force them to hold onto him and let Peters go.

I feel this gives them a young D core that in 1-3 years could be the best in the NHL. With a good d core in front Ward could return to the coveted goalie he once was. The obvious downside is the lack of offence.

Nobody wants Semin's awful contract.
