I've watched extended highlights only as the game was middle of the night for me.
MacDermids goal was decent, he found a lane and got it on net through traffic. Something we didn't do enough of. He seemed to play okay, solid and earned another look.
Gravel. I like him but his head isn't in it. Maybe it's the pressure of fighting for a spot that was his to lose. Well, I think he's lost it. Gutted.
Anderson-Dolan. The kid was involved everywhere and looked decent in his own end. His game will translate to the NHL, definitely.
Loki. Would have liked to see a glorious return but he's done a job and helped out in camp, I wish him well.
Laich. I should feel the same as I do for Loki, but I think he's earned another look. I'm intrigued and he 'could' bring more to the bottom 6 than some other guys.
Iaffollo. He makes things happen. It wouldn't shock me massively if he made the team somehow but my gut is he goes to the AHL, where he could dominate.
Mersch. I'd written him off. I've changed my mind. Earned another look, on the bubble and I think he will lose out to Dowd, barring a trade.
Campbell. If we waive him then we lose him. Looks like he should be the backup. Do we risk losing Keumper? Do we carry 3 goalies whilst the forwards fight for the last NHL spot in the AHL? I'd risk waiving him, certainly better than losing Campbell.
