Jack looks leaner. Dropped weight to get faster?

4.6 could work...
3.5, 4.25, 6 = 4.53 AAV. That could work for sure.
But I'm sure the Mercer camp would still prefer two years. Instead of taking the 3rd year, he could/ should bet himself.... isn't that what Fitz is fond of saying?

I've never understood the point of not showing up to training camp. Get a PTO signed with exclusions on media availability and physical activities. Hit the video room, work with coaches on schemes, etc. There's a bunch of stuff that can be done without risking injury.
Let's not get so attached to training camp lines that we start prematurely naming them.
That's how we end up with such noted combos like the H2O line.

He better get some new pads. He's always got nice ones and the mostly white is lame.

Haula wasn’t on the ice because he’s sick. Should be food to go in a day or two.
Pesce had surgery at the end of the season, as was already known. He’s doing good, working on agility and comfort. Considered week to week, does appear he’ll be ready to go for the start of the season in a few weeks. He was there yesterday.

you have to assume Meier and Mercer will get promoted off the third line at some point during the season

Where did you see this? I have been scouting the web for news and I haven't seen anything.

Always a sound philosophy.
Letting Boqvist, Wood go and losing Mcleod decimated the speed on the bottom 6 last year

Generally yes, but the great Devils teams always had a bit of nails on a chalkboard type of quality too - Stevens, Claude, etc...yes it's good to have as many talented guys who don't have an overinflated ego as possible, but as we saw last year you also kind of need someone to straighten these ****ers out when they start lollygagging and becoming more worried about the refs than the games. Sometimes rocking the boat is good.
And yes I know Keefe 'should' help in that area but you need peer pressure too. Nico is a lead by example guy. Jack is too passive-aggressive to really get in people's faces. Dougie is just a passive, loveable dork. Who's gonna do that here - maybe Haula and Palat? That's stretching it, especially since they didn't do enough of that last year.
