Lehner not on the roster. Not surprised but it's weird the lack of rumours much less updates about him.

 

[LadyStanley]

My guess is Jesse and other will ask about Lehner. There's physical health after surgery, and where he is mentally with all the (off ice) pressures he's under.

Anyone know what this long term injury to Miromanov is?

Anyone know what this long term injury to Miromanov is?

As far as I know he has been out since New year's Eve after blocking a shot

 

[barriers]

He came back from the blocked shot injury in March, I think, and later had a very awkward leg injury that I couldn't find the video of with Twitter being useless and what not

 

[LadyStanley]

"Long Term" -- anywhere from two weeks to end of contract.

If it's concussion, could be career ending.

 

[azvgk]

As far as Ahac goes, I thought he got concussed in the rookie game. It was right at the end of the Shark game, I was sitting in Row A and he was no more than 10 feet from where I sat. Didn't think it was a long-term injury, he left the ice on his own but was a bit wobbly.

Do you expect Hill or Thompson to be your starter?

 

[LadyStanley]

I'd think Hill as Cup winning goalie might have the upper hand, but LT was the stalwart through the season.

Cassidy might platoon to start the season and pick someone by mid season.

So is the plan for Howden to play in the top 6 this season? Or is it more likely that someone else (like Dorofeyev?) takes his spot in top 6?

Lines are likely to start the same as they were in the playoffs but with Smith spot open. Dorofeyev should win it over Cotter and Comtois in my opinion.

HSK training camp

 

[theslatcher]

Camp roster reduced to 15/9/2.

Brisson, Korczak, & Pachal still up, that is.

 

[Skinnyjimmy08]

How has Dorofeyev been throughout camp?

 

[IceNeophyte]

How has Dorofeyev been throughout camp?

He has stepped up a notch, enough that I think they will have to make a rough decision between him and Cotter to start (probably Cotter for his physicality). Scorofeyev is every ounce an NHL ready player.

 

[EXTRAS]

Is daniil chayka still left at camp?

 

[hangman005]

Is daniil chayka still left at camp?

Nah he was assigned to Henderson on the 30th

What an awful mess it made to field fourth line plus a handful of roster hopefuls and all the rest scrubs last night. Why even bother.....

 

[LadyStanley]

Nice summary of Tuesday game

AHL vs AHL.

 

[Vegan Knight]

They will definitely be looking for a second/third line winger around the start of 2024.

Dorofeyev has looked best but no one has grabbed the spot. Dorofeyev should start the year in the lineup but they will probably start Cotter though because he got the most games last year, even though I still think he is pretty much only a shot at the NHL level.

I could see them signing Comtois for around 825-850k so we can keep all our cap space while using LTIR and no one else is any better for a 14th forward. They could always send him down no harm done at any point in the season. That low risk is what would get him a contract not really anything he's shown, which hasn't been much.

Which waiver eligible Dmen do you guys figure are still going to get waived this week or before season starts?
