Gaudreau is the guy who is on the bubble, of the veteran players, IMO. Marjo might be disappointing, but he is clearly better than Freddy.

I was mostly talking about Mojo's spot on the 2nd line with Boldy and Ek, even if it's someone else getting knocked out of the starting lineup.

At least I assume they aren't planning to play ଲhgren on the 4th line.

Do you think there's a chance they move Freddy to Iowa, is it even doable? I can't remember if he's got the No Move clause.

No, but they could move Trenin down there.
I wasn't impressed by Trenin.

I wasn't impressed by Trenin.
He has a partial no-trade, not a no movement. It wouldn't really save any cap as his cap hit is a little more than twice what can be hidden away, and therefore his replacement would effectively leave the Wild at roughly the same cap hit, but it gives a roster spot to someone else.

They could, but I don't see them doing that to the shiny new toy just signed by the GM.

I have a feeling Trenin has more time to prove himself and those 3rd line wings are almost set in stone for now.

Hunt being scratched here makes me think he's not going to make the final roster

Jon Merrill making the final roster is nothing short of tragic

I'm hoping the opposite. Hunt has made the roster, and this is Merrill's last to impress before he is waived. I don't see how they can regard his performance as anything but inferior to Hunt's in the preseason.

I've also thought that Chisholm was clearly better than both of them, so can see both going to Iowa, but Hunt being first callup.

Well, at least we don't have Goligoski and Addison in the lineup along with Merrill.

If you believe Russo he thinks Ohgren is AHL bound, same with Wallstedt because of cap reasons and all that. He says it's not a good idea to carry three goalies.

Hunt could stay up here and join the team on that long road trip because Middleton's wife is expecting. Russo also thinks Merrill will be the 7th D.

So Bally's is saying that my subscription is valid currently, but I can't watch until the next season starts? Huh?

I want to say something about Freddy playing PP above Öhgren, but WTF can I say.
