What are you guys/gals hoping to see in preseason this year?

What are you hoping to see with regards to coaching strategies/line ups/PTO's/young players?

I know me and a few others are hoping the flames aren't screwing around with lineups and PTOs in the last 2 preseason games, instead actually cementing the lineup earlier than usual and being really ready for game 1.

I guess in the experimentation times I would like to see Gillies/Rittich get a shot maybe to surprise and I'm liking the Janko/Foo combo, so I'd like to see a bit of that in the preseason.

I wouldn't mind seeing them try Tkachuk up with line 1 a bit as well as Janko with Backlund and Frolik as well. I guess I wouldn't mind seeing the 1-3-1 practice on PP since that seems like the way we're going, except use Hamilton a lot as the 1..
