The only guy with real separation from the pack for me is Cholowski. Hronek and Sulak are in the middle. Then Hicketts and Saarijarvi right behind them, not necessarily in that order.
Which is to say I don't really care who, besides Cholowski, has made it. Anyone who didn't make it can go to GR and get big minutes. I'm not worried about it. I'd personally prefer Sulak for his size and skating, but if it's not him I don't consider it a big deal.
I do wonder if Frk has made it. Rasmussen has a spot locked, Zadina looks AHL bound. Then it's just Frk and Svech right? I like Frk on the PP a lot. Real poised. Way more intelligent decision making than guys like AA. And of course he's got a bomb of a shot. And honestly I like the other parts of his game. He's no hole defensively. He's not super fast but he's not slow either. I think he's a decently well-rounded player capable of playing top9.
I'll be a little sad if Frk hasn't made the regular squad.
Great points about Frk. He's quietly and humbly made his case, especially last night. What a frking shot lol. I'm hopeful for Svechnikov but in some instances you straight up go with who's hotter. ATM the two are close.
