Incredibly difficult to make this team if you weren't here last year. Club had a ton of success. Brought almost the entire nucleus back. If ghost was healthy id suspect even gus sitting out at first. Sandin very well could make the flyers in season and I expect him as a taxi squad member with bunny from AV comments.

Totally agree. I would have been pretty surprised if he was able to work his way onto the 4th line. Raffl and Laughton were locks, and I thought NAK's spot was his to lose.

Like many on here, I'm not the biggest Braun fan. If he keeps it simple, plays smart, and just doesn't suck, I'll think we'll be ok to start out of the gate with him and Provorov paired.

People were adamant about him making the team

I think folks we just hesitant (or negative) about Patrick. As it turns out, there wasn’t a roster spot open.

Bill, I did not see the scrimmage. What is that make up by position for the first PP unit? My assumption...

Provorov....top of the umbrella
Giroux.....left half wall
Konecny....right half wall
Couturier......the slot
Hayes......crease screen

Only surprised about Andreoff over Sandin.

Not really a surprise. Once the AHL starts, Sandin needs to play, not sit.

For sure, I just thought they would rotate them out one at a time for games when the AHL starts. I kinda just thought Andreoff, as a vet, would be needed in Phantoms camp since they have a young forward group.

That sucks

Av comments suggest frost is only here until ahl starts unless there's a top 9 injury.

Confused about Foerster. Is he allowed to go to the AHL because the Junior season is not playing?

On a happy note, glad to see Provy get the “A” for home games. You’re a vet leader now! Congrats!

Still no word on Gostisbehere's status?

I read that he won’t be playing in the opener, and for what it’s worth, they aren’t allowed to say more because it is technically still preseason.

They lowered the ahl age limit due to covid. My question thst nobody can answer is can he go back to junior is does this mean he's ahl only. Wisdom is a phantom too.

The exemption only lasts until their junior teams' seasons officially start. Then they gotta go back.

You know what continually sticks out to me? Your frickin Toronto Maple Leafs BS above your stupid avy

Kinda sad that Linus "Lock" Sandin got sent to Lehigh.

Not even Chuck Fletcher knows yet. Teams are waiting for guidance if relaxed CHL/AHL age rule will apply all season or only until the CHL leagues are all playing.

Incidentally, I have noticed that if a link is "quoted" in a reply,such as you did, it does not work. But the original post link works. At least for me.

Dunno where that Bendecko vanished.
