that was clear...except oreskovich...I thought that he would make it a little bit better...maybe not the final roster, but under the top 25...

well...you are right...he was great...but what else can you do?? I mean, there are only 12 offensive positions in a game...
bruno, smitti, joe, duke, stazz, wolski, arnason, lappy are fixed in a way...are 8....4 remaining..so who is still out there besides healey:
svatos, hensick, guite, parker, smith, hlinka, richardson, mccormick and rycroft...
so let's say, hlinka or svatos should get the remaining position on the 3rd line...

so only the 4th line is left. now its the question, if you really wanna have a good offensive guy (with less defensive abilitys) on the checking line?? I mean, the 4th line is a line, which should shut down games and destroy the opponents strategy..for sure, you could put a "scoring" line in the 4th line too, but that would mean a lack of defense in the back-move...

I know, its very hard for healey...but there is stilly a guite, richardson, rycroft and also parker (who is THE destroyer himself) which would be a great line to shut down games...if you wanna have also a 4th scoring line, you should place a svatos - richardson/healey - hensick line....but as I said above...such a 4th line would not be able to go out and kill the game of a good opponent's offense...

Colorado should fill also defense rather LD position (In my opinion of course Smile

)

T.J. Hensick and Mark Rycroft have been sent to Lake Eire Monsters. Well, TJ had a great camp, but, we have very good offense and there is no spot for him in the first or second line. Putting him on the bottom lines would be bad for him, he is future top line center I think. Rycroft may be recall if someone get hurt, he was quite good last season in the 4th line.

for me, personally, rycroft is a litte bit surprising....I thought, that mccormick would have benn sent down instead of him....but obviously, mccormick is in better shape than rycroft...

McCormick was sent down too. Well, it seems that Budaj will start opening night vs Dallas and day-to-day game in Nashville. Theo is not ready yet, and Weiman will be playing backup as long as he is ready to play. I don`t think Q would put inexperienced Weiman to the net as a starter goalie...
