The final roster has not been announced, though. Locmelis is in the camp, but he is not guaranteed a spot yet.

I know the final roster has not been set.

I was told last year (was that you?) there was no way he would make the team, but I insisted he would.

I will insist he makes the team this year as well.

Yeah that probably was me. A year ago I was sure that our conservative coach would not take a kid with 0 pro experience and I was glad to be wrong. This year, however, he has better competition. Specifically, two centres from NCAA with similar production. They are slightly older and thus potentially Locmelis is a much better player. But at the moment, they are no worse, have looked great in exhibition games and might have an edge over him.
