i’d place a smart bet he won’t be the only one unfortunately…i forsee departing: kotalik, biron, numinnen (we won’t resign him for ANOTHER 1 year deal, bring on paetsch 
), HOPEFULLY kalinin (but we won’t dump him unless we score seabrook from chicago in exchange for kotalik), and either briere or drury
i see no possible way we keep both briere and drury UNLESS:
a. briere decides that after another superb season, he will accept a long term contract for the same amount he’s making now (which is what he asked for last season, in the terms of a 5 year 25 mill deal) and will actually “practice what he preaches” in that he does indeed want to stay in ruff buff like he claims so much
b. drury accepts an EXTREME lowball offer in exchange for a long term contract and opts not to seek a deal like brieres to “stay with the team he wants to play for”
c. salary cap increases a good bit from this season, which is also quite possible due to the increase in attendance and revenue this year
