I think Grebenkin makes the team.
If he does though not sure there is room for Pacioretty, Jarnkrok, Kampf, Robertson etc. Might have to make a trade or 2.

Victor Johansson has 10 points in 8 games so far this season.
He had 8 points in 34 games all of last season. Very excited to watch his progress this year.

Definitely encouraging but it's the EDIT: Swedish junior level so we'll see how his game translates as he progresses towards their pro league.
I wonder if he has a shot at their WJC team?

Wonder if he’d slot in next to McMann and Tavares better than Robertson.
McMann - Tavares - Grebenkin

I would assume he would need to get into pro hockey for that but I also have no clue on what the team will actually look like for them this year.

If he's Mikheyev out of the box with more of a scoring touch we'll have a good one.

I think Grebenkin did in the KHL at 20 (May birth month), what Mikheyev did at 24 (October birth month).
Mihkeyev may be faster, Grebenkin more physical?
McMann is treading up hard. He’s not a 4th liner. He was the most productive forward after the big 4 in terms of goals. He’s a top 6 100%. Worst case 3rd line with other offensive weapons.
The leafs scouting in Sweden is down to minor midget I swear. Can’t complain as it’s resulted in some draft days steals on guys that otherwise would’ve gone completely undrafted.
McMann is an elite skater with above average size and strength. Very late blooming power forward who took years to develop his hands. Let’s just hope his hand eye keeps improving.
Easy call in moving out patches. I doubt his slow recovery will allow him to compete every game.
Kampf at 2M per is ridiculous but they will never find takers. Might have to bury him in the minors.

Kampf at 2.4
Could use his accrued cap space at the deadline for a home run
Same can be said of Jarnkrok

Kampf and Jarnkrok are both expendable at this point. There's too many interesting, cheaper young guys (and Patches/Lorentz) pushing for jobs.

The game’s less organized and there’s more headhunters looking to make a name for themselves, some AHL is fine but you don’t wanna see him lose a big development season with a string of injuries he wouldn’t have gotten on a sheltered NHL line.

I think Jarnkrok is a little more useful than Kampf but yeah if the kids push both those guys should get the boot.

I don’t think he was really ever someone who could make that jump. The high IQ, no tools combination doesn’t fill you with hope and excitement. Plus he’s not really that young.
He isn't really 4th line.

Yah. Small sample but he produced as a middle 6er. I think there is a chance he is a bit player but his upside is not 12:00 a night if he hits.

Backcheck, Forecheck, Paycheque.
Moving on from Kampf would be a massive boon. Hope some team feels the need to fill out their roster with centre depth. Let Holmberg, Dewar, and Lorentz take care of his duties.
