The needs are the priorities, and for once, they don’t involve a player negotiation. The questions are more of an internal exercise to help shape the roster for the start of next season.
When it comes to needs, they generally consist of the same things going on a few years now: improve the defense with legitimate defenders who can be trusted to handle tough minutes (at least one, ideally two), improve the bottom six, and add some center depth (not sure Alex Kerfoot – Pierre Engvall is the one-two punch you want on that side of the roster).
