After seeing all these preseason injuries in nothing games, I'm ok with an ounce of prevention here.
I suspect, as many others do, that Norris is not 100% ready to play. It seems like a replay from last season. I think he would have played one game by now if he were fully healthy.

Crazy this guy just gets it at such a young age. We're really lucky.


Yeah it really felt like this was game he'd be in if he was going to start the season on the active roster.
I felt like he wouldn’t play in Sudbury, I thought 2 of the last 3.

2-3 games is often what the final roster plays.

Last year, Batherson, Tkachuk, Chabot, giroux, Tank, Chychrun, Sanderson, JBD and Joseph all played 2-3 games in preseason, so Norris getting into 2 would be pretty normal, though those games might be spread out more normally.

I’m ready to split up tkachuk stutzle giroux.

Don’t think stutzle fits with them. They need a more straight line predictable player like pinto or Norris.
Stutzle has been good with batherson before. I’d like to see that.

Tkachuk-Pinto-Giroux
Perron-Stutzle-Batherson
Cousins-Greig-Amadio
Gregor-Jenik/Ostapchuk/Gaudette-Macewen

That looks pretty solid imo considering Norris isn’t in there.
