Description

1. I'm a big Anders Bjork guy, but I'm beginning to feel that he gets a stint in the AHL to start based on his recent setback that caused him to miss the China games and pretty much most of the pre-season games.

2. I have been pro breaking up the Bergy/Marchy/Pasta line to try and spread out the offense but based on camp so far it looks like they'll stay together (that is, if Bergy is healthy enough to start the year) and Heinen and DeBrusk will get Krejci's wings.

3. Based on Studnicka getting cut today I feel like the 3C spot goes to JFK and Frederic will go to Providence.

4. Don't know that the 4th line will look like, this is my belief. Obviously Kuraly's health will help decide how it looks.

5. On the defensive side of things I want Grzelcyk in the lineup, but I feel that he is the 7th guy on the depth chart right now based on camp so far.

Just my guess as to how the team looks in a week. Tear me apart. Tell me where I'm wrong.

What a shame, I was really hoping he would make the team, or at least get the 9 game try out. I think he's their best prospect. I also agree that I want Grizz in the lineup, but I'm guessing he starts out of it. Oh well, injuries happen. I'm on board with everything on here.

They should bury Nordstrom and give the last 2 FW spots to Winnik and Stempniak. I know they just signed him but he is garbage. Don’t see Wagner sitting. But i’d say pretty accurate.

I'm with you on Nordstrom. Don't like the signing, but I I feel they play him to start because of the deal they signed him to. And I can easily see Wagner being in the lineup as well. 4th line can go like 4 different ways to start the year.

Seeing how he’s hurt would be the perfect excuse to do it. Lol

Ya 4th is interchangeable. Kuraly may not be ready for opening night either.
