Rookies that made your team's opening day roster

[Empoleon8771]

Penguins have McGroarty (L3 with Eller and Puljujarvi) and Blomqvist (backup since Nedjelkovic is injured), with potentially Brunicke getting a 9 game stint before going back to juniors. It's shocking how good Brunicke looks here, he was just drafted in the 2nd round this year but is making a legitimate case for playing in the NHL.

Oilers should have 26 year old Noah Philp for opening day

For the Islanders if Maxim Tsyplakov was born 5 days earlier he wouldn't be classified as a rookie(he just turned 26 as well)

 

[Sasha Orlov]

Lane Hutson

Jett Luchanko, fresh off his 13OA pick in this year's draft, has all but made the opening roster for the Flyers. The majority of posters are thrilled. /s

Yeah i mean you guys have so many good defensive prospects that you would be forced to trade a defenseman otherwise they will ask for a trade due to limited playing time. I mean Nemec, Casey, Hughes, Sigenthaller, Pesce and Hamilton are all top 4D dmen. Plus as you said, you have Silyaev too. So in a year or two, you guys better trade one or two of them to make room

I would say the ones to move on from would probably be Hamilton & Siegenthaler when Silyaev gets here. Casey replaces Hamilton & all his PP minutes while Silyaev replaces Siegenthaler and all his defensive minutes. Our top 4 would be
Luke-Nemec
Silyaev-Casey
Whoever-Pesce

Will the Sens and Flyers have the two guys fighting for the Calder? Yak and Mich look to be, by far, the best of the rookie crop.

 

[Czechboy]

Ivan Ivan?

 

[Magic Mittens]

Stankoven and Bourque

 

[lionsDen]

Ivan Ivan?

I’d sayvyes

 

[EveryDay]

Hutson
Kapanen
Roy/Heineman

 

[Bozo Nicholson]

Conor Sheary

Hoven from Mayor's Manor (he contributes to the Kings and provides independent coverage) thinks Andre Lee, the Kings 2019 7th-round pick, will make opening night roster.

 

[Obvious Fabertism]

Ohgren and Khusnutdinov have made the opening roster at forward for the Wild. Wallstedt has made it as well, somewhat surprising that they are keeping them all up, they played well enough to deserve it, but the Wild potentially could have saved some cap. Good to see the team reward these guys for great camps.

Hunt deserves NHL time too but the D is stacked up nicely 1-6, any injury will get him a call up and play time over Merrill.

It was a good camp for the youth, apparently all that time and effort with the development team this past summer paid off, several guys looked to have taken significant steps forward.

Canucks:
Raty
Bains
Silovs


Wallinder will join them next year with Lekkermaki and Pettersson

I can tell you’re a big fan, spelling both Willander and Lekkerimaki wrong. I hope for your sake your name is Bob.

 

[Patty Ice]

Sharks should be sporting Celebrini, Smith, and Gushchin.

Cagnoni has shown he is a player but it'd be better for his development to start the year with the Barracuda. He needs to cut his pro teeth in the A.

Matvei and Jett​

Luchanko is gonna become the youngest player in Flyers history

 

[Teemu]

Nolan Allan appears to have made the team with Kaiser on IR. Nazar was intitially sent down but played well tonight and could have changed the plan.

 

[Lunatik]

For the Flames, Wolf is a lock and some thing Cooley will make and we'll run 3 goalies for a while (I don't think so personally) as well as maybe Honzek and/or Klapka, both are up in the air still though. We'll have a better idea tomorrow when we see who's placed on waivers.

Regardless... Klapka and Lomberg are clearly ideal linemates.

 

[UpHere]

Canucks have Silovs in net.
Raty and Bains still up and fighting for jobs but when injured players come back only one at most will stick. Probably Bains I’m guessing but not many spots open at forward with a healthy lineup so could be none.

i can't stand the 'nucks, but Bains should be in the opening lineup

Nice of him to bring his kid to work.

Ok, not sure why misspelling a long foreign last name is now some type of sin here

Imagine if the Canucks still had Brzustewicz too.

New favorite Shark.

If Siegs is back and he looks back so far then you could keep him. Move Dillon in 2 years when Silayev comes over. Siegs has another 4 years at 3.4. If he’s good then that’s a solid deal you hold onto. If one of the other LD prospects show you they can replace Siegs for cheaper then great I don’t think he’ll necessarily have to go if they don’t. Especially when Silayev will only be coming over at 20 and maybe won’t be a top 4 D yet. Siegs will still have 2 years left at that point. Perfect bridge from Siegs to Silayev as the top 4 shutdown LD

Stankoven and Bourque were pretty much locks to make the team before camp even started . Expectedly they made it and as 12/13th it looks like Oskar Bäck made the team too.
