Loaded Toronto roster. Should be a good test.

 

[Henkka]

Chiarot is the best marketing face for this game. Maybe after Holl.

My speculated roster would be "all guys resting from yesterday".

Rasmussen - Copp - Perron
Kostin - Veleno - Berggren
Söderblom - Lombardi - Fischer
Hirose - Danielson - L'Esperance (or some other AHL vets with Danielson)

Määttä - Gostisbehere
Chiarot - Holl
Johansson - Wallinder(or Newpower/Didier/Rafferty)

Husso
Hutchinson

So who is wrong? Khan or Kal's program?

Ansar has AlJo and Ken has Ed in the lineup.

 

[Henkka]

Ras - Copp - Perron missing.... that's gonna be murder.

So who is wrong? Khan or Kal's program?

Ansar has AlJo and Ken has Ed in the lineup.

Quite sure Edvinsson will rest and Johansson plays (who didn't play at Pittsburgh).

 

[Detroit Knights]

Yay! Kasper and reaves fight still may be on!


Anywho, Danielson is playing and I cannot wait to see what he does. Even if he is bad I am fine with it, I just want to see how he handles a mostly A lineup of Toronto. This is his biggest test. Who knows, maybe he does well enough and plays in the Saturday game. Lalonde said Saturday's game is mostly dress rehearsal and a couple guys who could make the team or not so let's see!

Can't wait to just get drilled tonight lmao.

[Barry Amsterdam]

am i missing something but kasper isn’t in the pregame skate? but he’s playing?

Also very excited for Berggren-Danielson-Kostin.

Maybe throw Kasper In for Kostin

 

[Detroit Knights]

probably just for a select few of the players that have a shot at making the lineup on those first two lines?

With that, maybe the rest of them are going to be sent down or to their respective teams and are just trying to get more practice in to learn more.

yeah maybe who knows

yeah maybe who knows

I just wonder what lalonde means when he says he "earned the playing time". Is this like a "yeah he is going back to WHL, but they don't need him right now and we are having too much fun with him at the moment" type thing, or is it "yeah he earned it and we are thinking of putting him up in front of berggren at the moment to start out with 9 games and see what happens because he is obviously outplaying berggren and nate can be a winger to start and transition later if he stays after the 9 game tryout" type thing.

Never know

He said he “earned the amount of games he’s played in this preseason". Unless there's another quote out there i haven't seen maybe?

 

[HisNoodliness]

Looks like a "compete for a roster spot" lineup.

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

Damn, was hoping for a kasper/reaves fight...

I'm thinking you're kidding but just in case, why would you want our young prospect to fight some goon who outweighs him by 40 lbs and doesn't really need a stick for most of what he does on the ice? And in a preseason game no less?

Obviously joking. Reaves just acts like he is going to fight anyone and I have disdain for him for a multitude of reasons. They are obviously not going to fight and it would obviously be stupid if kasper decided to join in the tilt.

He not only has poundage over him, he has reach, actual fighting skill and toughness, and would probably enjoy doing it. I'd rather just watch the biznasty/reaves fight that they keep claiming they are going to do at some point.
