depends who you ask :D
Schroeder gets a shot there if his camp is decent

i think the only reason gillis/gilman say hes closer than his agent does is because they dont want to seem in a position of weakness when it comes to having to acquire a replacement via trade

... just started puckhandling drills in the last week ... damn!

This is going to be UGLY.

Moulson Tavares Okposo
Grabner Nielsen Boyes
Martin Bailey Niederreiter
Boulton Cizikas Joensuu

Streit Visnovsky
Hamonic MacDonald
Carkner Donovan

Nabokov
Dipietro
Poulin
Nilsson

I don't think these will be the lines on opening night, because there are just too many questions going into camp. Bailey showed late in the year he was best suited as a winger so Boyes might move to center. I think Nino should play the entire season in the AHL. He's been playing well. C Brock Nelson won't begin skating for a week or two because of facial fractures he suffered from being hit by a puck. W David Ullstrom will get a long look in camp. I have no idea what the Islanders will do with Dipietro. I expect them to keep his cap hit for this season.

Wow. I thought he looked pretty good out there with the Penguins. I wonder what isn't pleasing them.

The the one report the three invited are Tangradi, Bennett and Paul Thompson.

Hopefully Bennett gets a good look he has been their best player in Wilkes-Barre.
Also from what I read for the most part the team has been disappointing mainly on the Blueline.

So fucking stoked to see Horton on the ice again. I really like our netminder duo of Rask/Khudobin. I need to learn the guys' numbers all over again, I literally forgot. :L

Lucic - Krejci - Horton
Marchand - Bergeron - Seguin
Peverley - Kelly - Borque/Caron (upper body injury)
Thornton - Campbell - Paille

Chara - Boychuk
Seidenberg - Hamilton/Bartkowski
Ference - McQuaid

Rask/Khudobin

consider it booked!

and meh ... strange feeling of not caring where the canucks finish right now ... Im sure it will change ... but

I had a dream (... I had an awesome dreeeeeeeeeam - Lionel Richie!) ... with Kesler out the canucks shit the bed ... end up finishing out of the playoffs ... use the sleep doctor to make everyone go beddy-bye at the draft order selection ... end up with the #1 and #2 picks ... "howd they do that???" ... nevermind its a dream (an awesome dream - Lionel Richie)

end up selecting McKinnon and Jones and I end up buying a brand new Johnny Canuck 3rd jersey with the flying V as a shoulder patch

/could happen

In fairness to Lucic, you don't need to be in great shape to bowl over Ryan Miller...

Very tough to do with the Sabres with a few new faces around. I can see one rook for sure making the line up.

Here's what I can glean from sports writers covering the Wild:

Pierre-Mark Bouchard is still on IR, return date unknown

1st O Line: Parise/Heatley/Koivu // 2nd O Line: Cullen/Granlund(r)/Setoguchi // 3rd O Line: Brodziak in Center - & nobody cares to guess beyond that point

1st D Line: Suter/Spurgeon

2nd D Line: Falk/ - & nobody cares to guess beyond that point (currently only showing 5 total D men on the roster).

Goal: Backstrom/Harding/the occasional appearance by Hackett
