Lazar needs to step his game up in order to make this team. I see plenty of guys tonight that can fill his role and more.

Like when you see an outfield do a big dip at the latest second to snag a pop fly in the sun.

Jankowski is having a preseason reminiscent of Tkachuk's last year. Betting he gets snags a spot if he keeps it up.

Kylington has game. Can he put up consistent efforts all season if he makes the team? That's about the only concern for me about him now. If not this year. Next year for sure.

Gillies can only do so much.

Team defense this period has been............not great.

And Bartkowski has looked bad enough that two of Kylington, Kulak, Andersson, Valimaki could take the 6 and 7 spots.

Wotherspoon could usurp Bart too at this point.

Really impressed by Dube as well. He, Jankowski, and Kylington have really stood out to me.

Yeah, the team has kind of fallen asleep here. Lazar and Dube just had decent back to back shifts there, but not a strong period.

They're going to need a spot open for Dube next year too. He's really really good.

Not a fan of Lazar. I would prefer Lomberg or Hathaway on the team over him easily.

Watching on delay so don't know if posted earlier but Kylington gets pushed off the puck a little too easily.

His offense and skating are good but when opponents lean on him he coughs up the puck.
