I have no idea what this chart means and I refuse to learn.

Tufte has been getting Bednar praise all camp. Kiva and Olaffson are probably fine by Bednar.
NHL makes you suit up a certain amount of NHL experienced guys per game and clearly Bednar was giving his absolutely making the team guys a break by not making then travel. And also giving guys on PTOs every shot to show they belong on the roster or someone else's roster.
I would guess a lot of the younger guys are going to be cut today.

As per usual, MacDermid best skater on the ice.

Clurman and Tufte not doing themselves any favours it seems

My favorite part of training camp is Bednar saying Drouin isn't guaranteed to play with MacKinnon then immediately cementing Drouin to MacKinnon.

Seems that Ivan Ivan is the one who has separated himself for the 4C job so far. Also interesting to see Ahcan and Schueneman in that group ahead of Hunt.
Bednar will drop Drouin like a rock if he doesn't produce or buy in defensively once games start to matter.

I'm fine with that, what I don't like is cementing Rantanen to that line, and not a guy that can play some defense and win behind the net like Nuke or Lehky, and then putting two grinders with RyJo, and 3 shooters together on the 3rd line.

I agree on all fronts. Drouin's best chance at success is to be glued to MacKinnon all season, they know this.
Meanwhile the second line badly needs a player of Rantanen's caliber.
I think we see a shuffle within a few weeks of the regular season
Drouin - MacKinnon - Nuke
Lehkonen - RyJo - Rantanen
I could see RyJo and Rantanen doing some damage together.

Drouin with Mack is the only thing that makes sense in that top 6. Rants shouldn't be on that line, Lehky and Nuke shouldn't play together.

True underdog story for Ivan Ivan to win a job as a walk on from juniors.
Did lehky and nuke play together at all last season? I think it can work its just they would be so good next to mack and rantanen.

It clearly states MacDermid is the best player on the team.
Ivan squared emerging as a real 4C possibility perhaps? Or is this just because Meyers played in Minnesota last night I wonder.

They have played together some, but I really don't like it. too much of the same thing, they end up tromping on each other and making the line less effective.

Ehh looks slow, scared of shadow. Frail Cale is two sneezes away from ending up in hospice.

If Johansen can score and distribute the puck well from the bumper that would provide an element to the power play they haven’t really had for a long time.
Kadri had a solid shot from there, but couldn’t do anything in terms of puck movement. Lehkonen moved the puck well, but wasn’t a shot threat.
