I'll take issue with 2 of your points.

Thomas Hickey can't take top-4 minutes anymore. Not even for 1 game. When he had to step in for Johnny Boychuk in last year's playoffs he was brutal. Hickey was a poor skater when he got here and he didn't get any better over the years. Besides he would have to slot in for another defenseman's roster spot, not Dal Colle's. And remember, Hickey didn't make the team this year and that was on merit.

As for Leo, I've been put off by some of his decisions under pressure in his own zone, as well as a penchant for taking stupid penalties. Yes he's still a decent penalty killer and can play center in a pinch (not that you'd want that for more than a few shifts), but I think Dal Colle is defensively sound too.

Agreed about Andrew Ladd though. I'd have no problems with him dressing ahead of MDC.

Is this the Brent Thompson appreciation thread?

No, this is the negative Thompson thread.

What is our goalie depth chart in Bridgeport?

 

[Wanderson]

What is our goalie depth chart in Bridgeport?

Lightning signed Gibson and Linus Söderström is gone. So I guess it will be some changes.

 

[SI90]

What is our goalie depth chart in Bridgeport?

Skarek

 

[IslesNorway]

What is our goalie depth chart in Bridgeport?

Skarek only as of now but Lou will sign an experienced AHL goalie to a 2 year deal so he can be exposed at the expansion draft.

My concern is more if there is an injury in goal on the Island. Need to find a suitable #3

 

[BarzyClub]

I thought Kinkaid would’ve been a good fit but rags got to him first.

What is our goalie depth chart in Bridgeport?

1. Jakub Skarek
2.
3.

 

[MJF]

Assuming these players signed AHL contracts. The article doesn't specify it.

 

[KrisBeKreame]

Im trying to fins someplace that lists the AHL contracts. I think Elite prospects is missing some

 

[IslesNorway]

Pastjuov wasn't given an ELC in tve summer but good on the organisation to keep him in the fold. Helgeson's been on an NHL deal previously but may have gotten an AHL only now. Not that it matters much

1. Jakub Skarek

Isn't Schneider going to be down there as well?

 

[MJF]

Isn't Schneider going to be down there as well?

He is. I posted that list before we signed Schneider and after Gibson and Jared Coreau left.

Nice to see Pastujov get a contract, he came on later in college, if he continues trending as a power forward it may just take some time for him to develop

 

[PK Cronin]

Schneider still isn't signed yet, at least according to capfriendly.

 

[MJF]

Schneider still isn't signed yet, at least according to capfriendly.

So my list is still accurate

Next 6 F’s
Ladd - Kubiak - Jobst

Pastujov, Bibeau, Coskey, and Brown most likely in ECHL

I'm gonna tip on Jenkins being loaned out to Saginaw.

 

[Chapin Landvogt]

At the moment, the team is showing 15 forwards, 7 Dmen, and 1 goalie.

That includes somewhat likely ECHL candidates Coskey, Bibeau, Pastujov, Brown, Brubacher and possible OHL return Jenkins.

I wonder what happened to Kyle MacLean?
