Opening Day Roster

  1. I thought those were the starting lines 😳

    Then i realized it was organized by jersey number😅

  2. damn i just realized that there are lots of 7 in our defence:

    7, 17, 27, 47, 57, 73

  3. I don’t see why we need to have a full roster, especially if accruing cap space is such a priority for management.

    Mark Friedman played a grand total of 5 games last season after we traded for Zadorov on November 30th. I like Friedman, but he’s not going to play unless we’re load managing someone or two guys get hurt, it just doesn’t make sense to have his cap hit on the books.

    We risk losing him to waivers, but looking at some of the names that have cleared recently, I highly doubt he would have been claimed. Even if he was, we have lots of guys who can fill in as an 8th D down in Abbotsford for some spot work

  4. Doesn’t Patera have to be on the roster since they claimed him back? Or when you claim a guy back is it a free pass skipping waivers to the AHL?

  5. Are they still going to paper Lekki up to avoid the cap hit from potential bonuses if he gets called up later?

  6. So stoked Räty was given time and the coaching he needed to figure out his game! This is the way with our young guys moving forward. Let them develop in the minors with big minutes and support without the pressure of being one wrong play away from being sent down or benched. Build them up and have them demand a spot on the team out of training camp. He might not stick all year when the team is healthy, due to his waiver status, but I guarantee he will be here to stay next year!

  7. > Heinen – Miller – Boeser

    > DeBrusk – Pettersson – Sprong

    > Joshua – Suter – Garland

    > Sherwood – Blueger – Höglander

    > Räty/Åman/PDG

    bias aside, who’s got a better forward group in the NHL? i find it insane the competition is so strong you can’t even find a spot for a guy who absolutely lit it up in camp/preseason like Räty.

  8. Playing vids as I scroll and I see this shit, Iam like hold the fuck up… lol dicks

  9. i’ve heard next to nothing about Heinen. can anyone give me some insights into this new 1st line winger no one’s talking about?

  10. I don’t want to be a hater… but I’m kinda glad Mikheyev is gone.

    Pumped to see Debrusk, Sprong, Sherwood in the fold.

  11. I don’t understand why the kept Raty but sent Bains down. Bains was a lot better for us during the preseason
