I was kind of hoping to see a couple more undrafted CHL free agents invited this year, but I guess they didn't want to over saturate the camp. Interesting that they brought McNamara into the main camp. They must have liked what they saw in Penticton.

^ For team Crisp, I got the impression that Huska really likes Hunt. I also think that he had some decent chemistry with Coronato in the AHL. That's why I expect:
Hunt - Schwindt - Coronato
Honzek - Bishop - Basha

My guess is that the D will look like:
Hanley - Barrie
Kuznetsov - Tinordi
Grushnikov - Brzustewicz

I'm guessing team McNeil will try:
Pelletier - Rooney - Lomberg
Stromgren - Morton - Duehr

Solovyov - Parekh
Bean - Pachal
Poirier - Aspirot

It looks to me that Coronato is getting a crack at the Backlund/Coleman line. Huge opportunity for him if that's the case.

Sounds like they only have 3 practice days before a bunch of exhibition. It is probably best to just get your team together, get them reps, and put the lines together that you want to see rather than messing around with unsigned free agents.

Kind of disappointed Nikolaev hasn't made a push for a roster spot.

Interesting that Weegar and Andersson are in different groups, especially if these groups are designed with pairs/lines in mind.

I think they start with Weegar Miro this year. Rasmus and either Bahl Pachal or Bean

Based on Coronato’s and Barrie’s presence on Team Crisp, I think these are likely the lines and pairings we see tomorrow:

Kuzmenko - Kadri - Sharangovich (Crisp)
Coleman - Backlund - Zary (Crisp)
Huberdeau - Pospisil - Mantha (MacNeil)
Pelletier - Rooney - Lomberg (MacNeil)

Weegar - Miromanov/Barrie (Crisp)
Bahl/Bean - Andersson (MacNeil)
Bean/Bahl - Pachal (MacNeil)

Mantha and Kuzmenko have to be in the plan to be traded if they want to elevate Coronato. Otherwise I don't see any room for him, he is wasted on the 4th line.

He is likely AHL bound.

Plenty of opportunity for young guys to win a job, if not for opening night.

Some of these kids have to step up and steal someone else’s spot and force a trade.

Some of these youngsters need to step up. It can’t be that difficult to get a spot on this roster

If Coronato shows better than Kuzmenko or Mantha do you see them being traded to make room for him?

That's awesome, great guy.

I Immediately think of faceoffs! I bet he's going to be practicing with Zary, Pospisil, and Sharangovich quite a bit.

You are probably the only one surprised by this...

The guy has played more ECHL games than AHL games over the last two seasons (combined)

I'd agree to it only if Hartley was the coach, history showed that the French surrender their defensive lines a little too easily.

On a similar note, I actually want Pospisil to rub off on some of the other players and make a tinted visor line.
