Outside of Colborne, every one of us pretty much pegged this as the opening night lineup before ever seeing a single development camp/training camp scrimmage/preseason game. Players that we thought had good camps, were sent down, not because they played poorly, but rather because it was convenient.

Those that made the lineup, made it primarily because of their contracts, and those that didn't would've had to have had an amazing preseason to avoid being sent down. The one real surprise would be Street, and even then, they already had him clear waivers so they can send him back down once Cammalleri comes back.
