Here's my take on the camp battles:

Guaranteed a spot to start:
Kylington, Pelletier, Duehr, Vladar
A good chance to be in the lineup:
Coronato, Ruzicka
Tweeners:
Wolf, Jones, Gilbert, Oesterle, Hunt, Zary
Dark Horses:
Pettersen, Schwindt
...

Burried in the AHL: Rooney

Will be fun to watch some of the kids battle for jobs! Theirs to lose for a change.

Rooney signing remains puzzling to this day, he was the anti Sutter in almost everyway.

Luckily this is his last year.

Indeed. No Tanner Glass types this year to turn it up a gear only to flip the switch completely off when the season starts.

Certainly feels like jobs are actually up for grabs this time around. Last season group 1 was the main roster and you knew nobody was cracking that squad.

I’ll only venture into those threads when I have to pay the “If Huberdeau scores a Hat Trick tonight, Someone will get a free pair of tickets if you post in the GDT/PGT” or I feel like fighting with the minions of CP.

Lyle is already signed on a two-way, Gourley likewise on an AHL deal.

Aspirot is a professional try-out, whereas kids like Quinn Mantei and Jari Kykkanen would be amateur try-outs.

  • It looks like Huberdeau is starting with Lindholm as his center.
  • Their wing options to start look like: Sharangovich/ Coronato / Pelletier
  • Would be interesting to see who Zary is centering
  • Tanev -Kylington seems to be the paring for team Iginla
  • I guess that means Hanifin - Andersson, and Weegar - Zadrov will round out the D.
  • The middle 6 forwards seem to be Backlund, Kadri, Mangiapane, Coleman, Dube, and Ruzicka to start
  • Poirier, and Nikolaev are on team McDonald - a team that looks like it will be cut first

Poirier on the fringe AHL/ECHL team is crazy. Maybe because whatever injury kept him out of young stars.

100% injury related

To me that spot suggests they aren't sure if he'll partake

At least he will have a chance to stand out hopefully, and make it past a few cuts. Might not be the worst thing.

Based on his instagram videos alone, I'm going darkhorse here in Kylington

Was posted somewhere but it is because he has been rehabbing from post-season surgery.
