I was a fan of all three FA signings even though the term seemed a bit long, because each one addressed a need that was lacking from the year before. Jay Beagle should be able to take some of the load off of Brandon Sutter and either is capable of filling in, in a shut down role, should one get injured during the season. Antoine Roussel should be a good replacement for Derek Dorsett and provide what the team lost when Dorsett was no longer able to play. Tim Schaller will be a very good hard nosed in your face 4th line defender that can play center as well as the wing.
