I do this every year before camp, middle of camp, and near the end of camp. But here we go.
*This does NOT factor in trades, signings, etc. Just as the roster sits*
2018 Roster: 23 Open Spots
Locks (100% Chance to make the roster): 17
Anderson
Atkinson
Bjorkstrand
Dubinsky
Dubois
Foligno
Jenner
Nash
Panarin
Wennberg
Jones
Murray
Nutivaara
Savard
Werenski
Bobrovsky
Korpisalo
Pretty easy. Just need to look at the one way contracts and how high they played on the roster. The only intrigue is the possibility of a trade of Panarin, and what the depth chart will look like. Same goes for defenseman.
The team seems to like to keep 2 extra forwards and one extra D. 17 spots locked up. 2 up for grabs on defense, and 4 for forward.
Likely (75% chance or higher of making the roster): 6
Duclair
Hannikainen
Milano
Sedlak
Kukan
Harrington
Only two way deal is Milano, who could use seasoning. None of these players roster spots are set in stone, and bad performance by them or beaten out by players on the next list could mean they end up on waivers/back to the minors. But for now, they have the inside track.
On the bubble (50% chance or lower of making the roster): 11
Abramov
Broadhurst
Dalpe
Davidsson
Gerbe
Robinson
Vigneault
Carlsson
Clendening
Cross
Simpson
Lots of young guys or older AHL guys. Easily can play their way into the next tier with their own play or struggles of the players in the next tier.
AHL/Junior Likely (25% chance or lower of making the roster): 10
Bittner
Fortier
Foudy
Macinnis
Stenlund
Thurkauf
Sherwood
Collins
Siebenaler
Somerby
Berube
Kivlenieks
Little to no chance for these guys, but the potential is always there to play into the next tier. Doubtful they can get higher than that.
