I think Knight should start in the AHL and prove something first. As I have said many times I am not that keen on NCAA guys so I don't have much hope that Knight will be much more than a NHL/AHL tweener and not sure that he should be handed a spot because Feaster just acquired him/gave him a biggish deal.
I think Blair Jones got a raw deal last year and deserves a shot this year especially with the apparent weak centers we have again (although if Monahan impresses could be a better group.)
