- Can Chiasson elevate his game and fit in with some more skilled linemates? No Johnny or Monny to play with so these are the next best audition mates.
- Is Bollig going to be the fittest bench warmer in the NHL or actually get into some games this year?
- Is Poirier at least a 4th line caliber player who can provide energy since he's unable to do much offensively in the NHL? Probably AHL bound regardless.
- Will Chad Johnson continue to pee in Elliott's cornflakes forcing his way into a 1B situation instead of just B?
Edit: And Pierre I honestly thought Kulak already did that in the last Winnipeg game. Downright Brodie-like and then 2 goals on top against an overmatched line-up.

You don't win an NHL job with one good pre-season game. Consistency is key. If he can have another big game, that would help his cause a great deal.
