Thanks for the insight and definitely agree on the majority. Unfortunately Klimchuk will have to go back to Jr and not be eligible for the NHL unless he makes the team out of camp. Arnold seems to be progressing nicely and I could see him having a great rookie season in Adirondack. Possibly a trade-deadline call-up.

Gaudreau normally likes to use his teammates in game, but he's the best player on the ice at all times, so might as well try some magic when the stakes are low and the physical play is limited. The reason he survives in every league he plays is due to dishing the puck at the right times and finding open ice around the net.
