The taxi squad we'll use all year as the next guys to get called up. We'll be switching guys in and out...we won't keep guys all year on the TS. We want to get the young kids playing. The AHL training camp doesn't start until Jan. 25 and we can keep them here until Jan. 20th. Use it as a training tool....Chris Higgins will be working with them all year. Conditioning and skating coaches will work with them. A valuable way to keep developing guys and get them better. Will spend a lot of time on figuring out who we want up here....want to give a lot of opportunity..whether through injury or illness, to give them playing time. benji is a sharp guy. I never doubt his plan. 42 minutes ago, Squamfan said: makes me wonder about jordie benn, jamie benn, the dallas stars and how that chain of events went. 38 minutes ago, debluvscanucks said: Oh dude, you better be! Counting on it! that's a very cool connection I wasn't aware of. also a nice way to ingratiate himself to fans and ease the loss of a fan fave like tanman. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smashian Kassian Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 - The good: Hamonic with the team, should play tomorrow. - The bad: No Miller to start the year - The ugly: Unreliable tests So a guess at tomorrow's lineup: Virtanen / Petey / Boeser Pearson / Horvat / Hoglander Roussel / Gaudette / Sutter Motte / Beagle / MacEwen Edler / Schmidt Hughes / Hamonic Juolevi / Myers Holtby in the pipes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fanfor42 Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 NHL teams will gravitate toward the test kits that give the least false positives over time. European teams went through this already. In Europe the pros have been playing since Oct. Almost every team playing in Europe has had covid impact. Some with 1 or 2 positives. Some where 3/4 of the team has tested positive. I have first hand experience with this with friends and family. Luckily these guys are healthy and recover pretty quickly without a lot of lingering effects as a general rule. All teams have had games rescheduled and had players miss games. Some teams have sat out 2 to 3 weeks. NHL teams should expect to experience something similar. This is to be expected. Hopefully with vaccines coming the impact lessens over time. But the reality is this may be a very challenging year and it may not always be fair as it plays out. Luck of the draw. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently 14F + 7D + 2G on active roster with cap of $84.19m. Take out Miller + Benn and they have 13F and 6D, not counting taxi squad players ready to step in if required. Send Baer or Eriksson to taxi squad. Bring up Hoglander. Put Ferland on LTIR and voila, no cap issues that I can see... I also believe salaries of players that cannot play due to covid test protocols are treated as if the player has been waived to the minors, this will give a further 2 x $1.075m relief while Miller and Benn are unavailable. Opening game lineup based on Capfriendly with Miller and Benn removed: Virtanen Pettersson Boeser Pearson Horvat Hoglander Roussel Gaudette MacEwen Motte Beagle Sutter (Eriksson) Edler Schmidt Hughes Hamonic Juolevi Myers Holtby (Demko) Edited January 13, 2021 by BigTramFan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They probably notice how the media plays up things on the ice. Good for Adam to liven up the reel. Same with Schmidt. I also find that the video works a lot better on mute.
