Pretty much what I expected, except for Pettersson with Backlund, which is a welcome surprise. I assume Kempe-Andersson-Temporary is a 4th line which will be bumped up to 3rd if we get a round 2 reinforcement forward, because they don't want to split up the Pääjärvi-Larsson-DLR line unless we get no reinforcement forward.

It wouldn't surprise me if Backlund, Zibanejad and Larsson doubles and plays with Kempe and Andersson, alternatively some wingers like Rakell and Nyquist and Andersson plays C. Cus I have a hard time seeing Kempe not play at least 15-16 minutes per game.

Edit: D-lines they practiced with:

OEL-Larsson
Lindholm-Klingberg
Gustafsson-Wikstrand

Wikstrand...
Yeah that makes me feel bad for Gustafsson.

Ideally I would change Kempe with Janmark, not that Janmark is bad or anything I just feel like Kempes skill set is better suited in the top 6 than Janmarks.

Wikstrand 2+2, +5 in 7 NT games this season. Good at the WJC, and a solid international player now. Unless there's a meme I'm missing or bitter Sens fans for how he handled that.

Yeah... No I just don’t see it. At least he’s better than Frallan. Oh yeah I remember that Ottawa deal. Jesus christ what a mess. He made a f***ing deal and then didn't stand by it and started blaming Ottawa for not being able to play. Stand by your word go over and at least try it out if you’ve signed. Thanks, I’d forgotten how much that idiocy ticked me off. The worst part about it was that he got swedish media on his side blaming Ottawa left and right about something THAT HE f***ING MESSED UP.

He's a solid defender. By no means spectacular, but played well in both matches vs. Denmark which I followed live. Don't get why he's disliked this much here.
 
Most likely in Denver with his wife.

Dear migi, congrats on your first job! The Denver area is sure a fine place this time of the year for both Mr. and Mrs./ms.? Söderberg. Just wondering if he might stop by the Malmö/Copenhagen area to visit his aunt or perhaps Pudding (A 08) & the boys in yellow and blue. Any time soon that is...perhaps if Washington makes it past Guentzel and Hörnqvist.

Atleast pettersson gets to play tomorrow i guess?
He will, the practice lines are(as posted earlier);

Janmark-Zibanejad-Rakell
Nyquist-Backlund-Pettersson
Pääjärvi-Larsson-DLR
Andersson-Kempe-Everberg

OEL-Larsson
Lindholm-Klingberg
Gustafsson-Wikstrand
 
He's in the not invited zone, the one he got into because he had an off year last year(so did every other Avs player also), sadly.

And this year he is part of a "fantastic" group of players (Avs) according to Landeskog...

Logic...grows on trees...
 
do we have to have 3 goalies or can we use all 5 open spots on forwards/d ?

if all stars decline from stanley cup round 2 then we should still add players from na imo....melker karlsson, sörensen, oscar lindberg, djoos are all good players......maybe even ahlers like andreas johnsson, borgman, rosen etc would be good to add .

We really only need 1-2 F's, and 1 D if the stars are unavailable.

I'd go with Sörensen and, Melker if Söderberg is out of the picture. I'd be down for Djoos as 6th D.

Andreas Johnsson would be better than most of our forwards but he won't be be available any time soon. Pretty sure Lindberg will be invited if Vegas is eliminated, Grönborg used him on the top line last year with Bäckström and Nylander.

Lindberg isnt better than any forward on the team now imo. He hasnt had a good season
 
Forward lineup last year:

Oscar Lindberg - Nicklas Bäckström - William Nylander
Gabriel Landeskog - Victor Rask - Elias Lindholm
Joakim Nordström - William Karlsson - Dennis Everberg
Joel Lundqvist - Marcus Krüger - Joel Eriksson Ek

Lindberg was so out of place lol. Also, before Lindberg and Bäckström joined up the top 6 was this I believe;

Landeskog - Rask - Lindholm
Karlsson - Nylander - Eriksson-Ek
