Starting to look less likely that Jankowski makes opening day roster?

Something has to be cooking with Brouwer

Treliving has some work to do.

I think I saw something saying Jagr is missing the first game, so Brouwer should take his spot for that one game, but yeah, something has to be brewing with all these guys.

Yup, something is cooking for sure. Deadline is 3 PM...meaning time to mash F5!

I wonder if Lazar is the sweetener for Vegas to take Brouwer...

If Lazar is the sweetener, he's Stevia.

[Beninho]

Starting to look more likely that he makes it, this team knows they have a difference maker in Janko.

I think Vegas can afford to try him out full time at centre. Centre seems like his best case position and he wont get that on the Flames.

5th line is better than the 4th line, but yay for no bartkowski.

I think it's a either Brouwer or Stajan + Lazar to Vegas for a #6 D-man to replace Bartowski. Flames retain salary if it is Brower.

How nice of Brouwer to keep Jagers seat warm

Both options work for me

Looked to me like Hamilton-Jankowski-Lazar was the extra group.

Which is odd because Hathaway was waived, would make more sense to have Lazar or Hamilton in his spot?

Weird.

[bubbsy]

weird day for sure.

So assuming the flames don't actually sign jagr's contract today, can the flames technically stand pat and make no further roster moves by today's deadline?

no they need to send one of Jankowski or Hathaway down barring a trade

They are currently at 15f-7d-2g = 24 players without Jagr.

rosters need to be at 23 players by 3pm MT

A forward still needs to go down without Jagr. 2 with Jagr. Assume it's either Janko or Hathaway who goes down due to waiver business.

Of course the above numbers don't include Jagr.

However that I would guess will occur by tomorrow.

[sureLoss]

Loubardias thinks Jankowski gets sent down (maybe a "paper" transaction). Says Jankowski unlikely to play tomorrow. Hathaway likely plays tomorrow and gets sent down when Jagr becomes official.
