May have to factor in Raine in the mix on D if he gets a contract. I'm thinking that LA will use Ontario more this season. I'm thinking that's where MacDermid and Roach end up, probably Auger too.
Kings are at 44(?) SPCs right now so I guess it's possible Raine, Auger, Leslie all get deals. Zykov was sent back to Juniors so that brings the total to 43. Add those three and it's 46 which is right around where the Kings usually are for SPCs. The main hold up right now just seems to be playing time with 11 d-men possibly heading to Manchester to start the year.
I'm thinking one of Roach or MacDermid sticks in Manchester with Leslie being the odd man out. Pairings will likely be something like what Ziggy posted with a stay at home (LoVerde, Schultz, Roach, MacDermid, Forbort, Gravel) paired with a puck mover (Leslie, Ebert, Bodnarchuk, Miller, Raine) A pairing out of that group (Leslie and MacDermid?) are probably heading to Ontario to play top minutes and fill in in case of inuries/callups.
