Amadio and Greig vs Giroux and JBD

Have the Senators indicated when they plan to trim the roster and separate the players into the NHL and AHL groups yet?

Yes, he was cut a few days back.
Green indicated today there will be a large group of cuts either after the game tonight or tomorrow morning.

I didn't realize it was that long ago. Thx for the clarification.

Also wonder if some of it is mental. He was good while being a tandem with MAF but not so much as a starter. Anyhoots, he didn't look great in the last game so you were right. I based my original comment on what Leaf fans were saying on their board, albeit, very few of them have any confidence in him either lol.

If he ends up being really good with Boston, it will probably be for the following reasons:
1. He had laser eye surgery done in the off-season.
2. He has a new helmet where I'm assuming the sightline issues of the old one weren't repeated.
3. Boston's team defensive style of hockey.
4. Goalie coach Bob helps him address his shortcomings.
5. He's the backup, not the starter (at least that's the plan).

Chabot needs a defensive D to play with, not another offensive D. Similar types of players but on different sides. Plus, as good as Yakemchuk has looked in the pre-season, he stills needs a little bit of seasoning in the minors. TML vets all didn't show up for that game so really hard to judge what his performance will be like in regular season. No need to rush him, he still has a lot of things to work on.
My pairings would be:
Sanderson-Zub
Chabot-Jensen
Klevin-Hamonic
JBD/Yakemchuk as alternates depending on play and/or injuries.
I selected Hamonic based on his play in the 1st game, he looked like his old self. If that keeps up, I'd like to see him in at least 50% of the games alternating with JBD. He'll be a great mentor for Klevin..
I do agree with your 4th line, Reinhard/Jenik seemed to have a lot of chemistry. We'll see how they do tonight with Borgault instead of MacEwen.
I remember reading that his skating was one of his strengths. It seems that if he's paired with a good partner, he's really good; if paired with a bad partner, he struggles. Wonder which type Chabby will end up being.

I don't see them putting Amadio on the 4th line and Cousins on the 3rd. They're paying Amadio over $2 million, Cousins is getting less $1 million. Amadio can play on the right or left side. I also think they'll be trying Norris at center, not on the wing. He might be 3rd line center to ease him in. It also wouldn't surprise me to see Perron in the top 6 with Norris being on the 3rd with Amadio and Greig. Lots of possibilities with this group.

I could see that. I guess for me it's just one of those things where he's so far removed from his success at this point that I think it'd be hard to get back to that level. I could see him being serviceable as a backup at least, but I'd bet on Woll and Stolarz both before Murray.
Tkachuk - Stutzle - Giroux
Greig - Pinto - Batherson
Cousins - Norris - Perron
Gregor - Jenik - Amadio
MacEwen
Greig - Pinto - Batherson
Cousins - Norris - Perron
Gregor - Jenik - Amadio

Any word on the cuts yet? Green's big harangue about "half of you won't be here after today" has me curious.
Reinhart and Jenik have performed well so far and I expect one of them to win a roster spot.
Crookshank is more likely to be in Belleville.
Gregor has an NHL contract so he will most likely be on the roster; same with Cousins.
The 13th F might be MacEwen; he has played OK IMO.
Ostapchuk needs more development time in the AHL.
Switch Amadio and Cousins.
Replace Ostapchuk with Reinhart or Jenik.
Forsberg has a contract and Tokarski does not, so . . .
Lots of possibilities; not many greatly desirable options.
