Training Camp

It would be nice if Kostka stuck for his sake and a nice story, but I think I'd rather we kept one or two of Holzer/Fraser.  I'd prefer to keep the more defensively oriented players.
 
Good point from one of our own.

@TMLFansRob

Moose Jaw's last game is March 16. Assuming Warriors don't make playoffs (currently 12th in West), Rielly can join the Leafs after then.

Have to admit I have not seen much of Fraser, at all. I agree with this mindset, but if Kostka can put up points somehow at the NHL level, we need every point we can get out of this lineup.

Just don't think offense is our problem.
 
If the the 2nd line can produce like they did two seasons ago, we just might have a chance.

The 3rd line, which I thought was the weakest part of the forward group last season, has a chance to be vastly improved over last year since it is all new.

Likely forward lines tomorrow.

Lupul-Kessel-Bozak
Mac-Grabo-Kool Lemons
Jvr-Naz-Komarov
Brown-McLement-Orr

Steckel in grey and no Frattin.

Gardiner is practising.

Orr over Steckel? We'll be a little short on penalty killing forwards if that's the case.

So McLement - Brown, Grabo - Kulemin, Bozak - and someone possibly?

Looks like it. One negative to going with 3 scoring lines is the majority of your penalty killers will be on on a scoring line. I'd imagine Komarov would go with Bozak, when he's not the one in the box himself that is.
 
Quick question, if Gardiner is around they have 24 on the roster, does that mean he is going on the IR and like in the previous CBA does that mean he needs to be on said IR for at least a week?
