DS: I think we're excited about the depth of the group, first and foremost. And then it's really up to the players. Do I think that [Anders] Bjork and Heinen and DeBrusk and [Jakob] Forsbacka Karlsson, the forward group, yeah, I think they're going to vie for spots. But then you've got players like Kenny Agostino coming in, Frankie [Vatrano's] going to want his spot, [Austin] Czarnik played well last year, [Peter] Cehlarik's going to be a little late because of the offseason shoulder surgery. You've got other players that could be sitting in the weeds a little bit in Colby Cave and Anton Blidh that might push [Tim] Schaller and [Noel] Acciari and some of the other guys in their spots. Danton Heinen had a tremendous playoffs [with Providence] and should feel more comfortable having played games last year. It's a tremendous amount of names and that's just the forward group. Then you add Charlie [McAvoy] to the mix and a healthy Brandon and then you've got Robbie [O'Gara] and Matt Grzelcyk that, you've got young players in [Jakub] Zboril and [Zach] Senyshyn, [Jeremy] Lauzon that are just turning pro.
I think Brandon's a great example of last year where he just kept getting better and we said, 'Well how can we keep this kid out of the lineup?' There could be players who do the exact same thing. Emil Johansson has played a couple of years in the Swedish Elite League, we'll see where he goes, the skating ability that he has. Goaltenders probably feel the same way, Malcolm and Zane, had good years, a strong playoff run, let's see if they can push [Anton Khudobin].
