Good stuff. I think my best takeaway from the round table is the point that Gallant has been given probably a little more in terms of roster ingredients than he “needs”. He will experiment in training camp and the early season. And then once he has his system and guys rolling, Drury will move any spare parts. Find homes for guys who don’t quite fit.
Personally, I wouldn’t worry too much about lines since I think Gallant will be mixing and matching so much. I appreciate it’s a useful way to visualize and discuss the roster and lineup.

I had that issue too. I think the issue is with copy-paste. When I tried copy-pasting the password, it failed. When I typed it in manually it worked.
Definite non-candidate for a future appearance here to offer kudos for an job well done. Unexpectedly professional with the added bonus of not having to listen to two minutes of headbanger music on the intro and outro. Amazing what can be accomplished when people with some historical perspective and opinions based on close watching and facts get together... a model for what I WISH these boards were like more often, and even maybe for this whole frequently-ridiculous-of-late country! ;-)
Not a lot truly new here but given all the roster gyration in recent months helped me crystallize the fact that Barron is unlikely to make the squad right now and honestly I hadn't quite done the math by which the Reaves deal made Hunt a guaranteed AHLer.
I think the optimism re Chytil may be a little overboard and I hope I'm wrong; if he can bring what he did at last season's outset, plus some more, across a whole season that would be lovely... but I think that IF he's not included in a deal he had better prove himself this season or he likely never will. In any case the only way he displaces Strome next to Panarin is if Strome gets moved. If we take great leaps forward by Lafreniere and Kakko as a sort of given, I think Chytil's and to a lesser degree Blais' contributions are the biggest wildcards up front.
The D logjam is going to need to be partially resolved if not now then sometime in the next 12 months. I don't expect both Miller and Jones to be here next year, and I think y'all seem like you're discounting the expectations for Nemeth staying in the top six-seven for at least two years. If both Schneider and Lundquist are near-term givens, some of the other young D will need to be packaged.
Thanks again for an interesting and entertaining hour, gents.

Bob, I'm just curious. What's that jersey behind you? I didn't know the Confederacy extended to Canada

It is a jersey from the Roanoke Valley Rebels formerly of the Eastern Hockey League and the Southern Hockey League. I was the GM of the Rebels in 1975-76.Bob, I'm just curious. What's that jersey behind you? I didn't know the Confederacy extended to Canada

Years ago I had a theory that Edge was Eddie Olczyk which ended up being proved wrong.
Or was it?
William Karlsson was 24 when he was claimed in the expansion draft by Vegas. Chytil turned 22 last week. If Gallant can turn Chytil into Karlsson, Chris Drury will be doing cartwheels down Broadway.
I hear shades of John Giannone from Edge. Nice voice changer

Dvorak was suppose to be Karlsson 2.0
but Chytil stands to benefit from this coaching staff

You should have cut to the black screen every time the man in witness protection was speaking.
