Agree. Maybe take a page out of Lemieux' playbook and come in lighter and quicker.

Must be a a thick dude at that height.
Always thought he was 190ish.
i am excited that jets will have a credible 4th line that will will act more like a third scoring line or can be converted to an energy line. scoring with petan or swap him out for lowry or lemieux.
dano brings the most energy/fun hits of any player. little cannonball out there. lenieux and dano might be a fun duo for the jets. two "little balls of hate" out there hanging off of large centreman.
Maybe not
He has all off-season to get lean and fit. Might also protect him from injuries.
I'm all for a fire hydrant build if it is actually muscle.
Orlov is listed at the same. Komorov at 210. Clutterbuck at 218. Crosby, Skinner and Gagner are listed at an even 200.
His agitating style and net front game could be helped by mass - but only if it is clean.
Really doubt Dano makes the Jets opening day roster out of training camp, something about Dano that Mo doesn't like or maybe it's Mo!
I highly doubt they put him on waivers

Go Dano! Would love to see him show up at TC in top notch shape - I know there are many that don't like his unorthodox style, but I think he's a very useful top 9 piece that can score.
Other players hate his ****-eating grin too when he gets in their grill.
Man if this guy could break through this season it would be great. Hopefully him and Petan are deployed correctly with some good linemates and can break through and gain confidence in their game.
Players who don't require waivers for the upcoming season:
Ehlers (1 year or 6 games remaining - whichever comes first)
Morrissey (1 year / 77 games remaining)
Petan (1/80)
De Leo (1 year)
Kostalek, Lodge (1 year)
Poolman, Phillips (2/60)
Comrie (2/79)
Laine (2/87)
Connor (2/140)
Nogier (2/150)
Lemieux (2/160)
Niku, Appleton (3/80)
Roslovic, Spacek, Harkins (3/160)
I think that's it. Everyone else - including Dano, Lipon, Buddy Robinson, Andrew Copp, Hellebucyk and whoever else isn't listed above would need to clear waivers at the start of the year.
Still think a Perreault - Petan - Dano 3rd line would be a huge force for this team. This line could get prime matchups and get some points on the board. Maurice would still have his Matthias/Copp - Lowry - Armia 4th line for defensive responsibilities as he clearly wants a "defense" line.

I'd be good with these two lines as the "bottom 6".
I think you could also try...
Perreault-Lowry-Dano
Copp-Petan-Armia
That Petan line was very effective for a short stint. Lowry might offer a stronger defensive presence than Petan with Perreault and Dano, giving up a bit of offense for defense, but balancing out the bottom two lines.
Options a plenty. And the best part is Matthias, Petan, Copp or Dano will be the 13th forward instead of Thor. So A) there is no big drop off with our first injury and B) it allows for competition night in and night out as there is a quality player waiting to take your spot if youre not producing.
Yup, and you have Roslovic waiting in the wings to add another very bright young talent to the mix.
