I was looking at various line ideas with the forwards we currently have. One thing that really stands out is the looming battle in camp for bottom 6 spots.
I made a couple of assumptions with the lineup.
1) Reinhart makes the team
2) the foliowing is the top 6
Mouslon/Ennis/Stafford
Hodgson/Girgs/Stewart
That leaves 10 more forwards; Reinhart, Gionta, Foligno, Deslaurier, Flynn, Mitchell, McCormick, Kaleta, Larsson and Ellis looking to fill the last 8 spots on the roster (6 bottom six spots and the 2 extra forwards).
Obviously this can change between now and camp. But assuming things stay as they are, what are the chances Larsson is one of the two (I'm assuming Elis is going back) that ends up in Rochester to start the season?
This thought about Larsson popped into my head because he is still exempt from waivers. Whereas other young guys battling for spots like Deslaurier and Flynn are not. Obviously those two and someone like Kaleta could get sent down instead.
