Dewar still still get a game in. Kampf looked competent last night and played his typical game (ignoring Cap implications). Jarnkrok looks like his typical self, shot a perfect crease front pass into the goalies glove.
Locks:
Matthews
Nylander
Marner
Tavares
Robertson
Lorentz
Holmberg
Should be lock's but not showing it:
Knies
McMann
Meh but will probably make the team:
Pacioretty
Kampf
Jarnkrok
Reeves
Odd man out: Dewar
Back to Junior: Cowan
They should probably waive Reeves to get the forwards down to 12 but trading Jarnkrok (or Kampf) works for me as well.
Rafai and Meyer had a very good game. First call ups if they pass waivers.
Liljegren looks unenthused, no urgency. Very disappointed. They will probably let him try to play his way to being better at his contract and cap hit.
Treliving has a few moves to make. Timmins should either make the team or get traded because he’ll be snapped up on waivers.
I think they are hiding Murray because another good game and he would be gone on waivers too. Probably will get claimed anyway.
We are going to lose one or two regular NhL players for nothing and people will moan. But Lorentz and Robertson have been excellent. They have to replace someone.
I have been saying for a while and I still don't even know if it is possible, but not signing Lorentz (or even Pacioretty) right away is a lever we have to manage the cap in the early season before injuries hit. I do wonder why neither PTO has signed yet.
I would also waive Reaves to gain cap and roster flexibility.
