Was actually impressed by him, hopefully he makes it to SD

 

[Zegs2sendhelp]

The only person that looked like he wanted to make the team last night.


Cant have that

Pretty solid all around player, he'll be a key veteran for the Gulls.

Im thinking he prob played himself into a legit 1st call up if injuries happen

Maybe but they do still have 3 or 4 forwards to send down, not including Sennecke.

Of the 18F who remain on the camp roster, you have Sennecke who will be back in junior. 13F who I am pretty confident will be on the roster (in the order in which they appear on the updated roster) - Zegras, Fabbri, Strome, Killorn, Terry, Leason, Lundestrom, McTavish, McGinn, Johnston, Gauthier, Vatrano, Carlsson.

That leaves four guys in limbo - Gaucher, Harkins, Nesterenko and Colangelo remain in camp but without a sure path to a roster spot. They either need an injury to occur or need to force the team to either carry 14 F or make a decision on someone like Johnston/McGinn.

But unless they are looking at deeper factors such as maximizing the likelihood of Meyers clearing waivers, him being sent down first is perhaps a sign that they would give NHL looks to the three younger guys above before him.

I did see more from Meyers than Harkins but maybe the latter has shown more in his actual NHL games.

Thats fair.

Tho i hope we arnt planning on dressing Johnston dude is complete dog shit.... doesnt bring anything to the team/roster. To me hes a wasted roster spot.

Mcginn... i wonder if maybe we could send him over to Columbus. I know Columbus wants to add a Vet forward... and they also need to add some cap in a reasonable amount of time. That being said i thought he was decent in the games hes played in this preseason.

johnston and mcginn are both complete wastes of roster space

so naturally, they'll stay up while meyer doesn't

We like pinching pennies even when we are the 2nd lowest in cap. We are like the now defunct Oakland A's, lol. Except we are even too cheap to invest more in analytics like the Canes.

Is there another enforcer on the current roster I'm not aware of?

I actually think mcginn could be useful somewhat.

Johnston on the other hand completely useless

I agree, McGinn playing with a f***ed up back last season probably affected him a lot. I have hopes he can hit 10 goals again, I actually think McGinn-Lundestrom-Leason could be a productive 4th line.

Mcginn seems to have a little edge/pest to his game

johnston is a piss poor excuse for an "enforcer"

He's big, slow, and engages in staged bouts.
