Could Olsen provide some competition for Copp for 4C?

I think he could use another year in the AHL but he can use this training camp to make a strong case as one of the first call-ups.

I think Burmi would have to play lights out to push Lowry to 4th lne center. as stated befoe, more likely is is LW on Lowry's line.

Agreed with the first point. Not sure Bout the 2nd. Think he's RW on the 3rd or center on the 4th.

3 RW is about right he's got speed and will go in the corners, also i think he's excited to be back and that can do nothing but help.

I don't believe burmi plays 4C at all. He'd hate that and he's too good offensively

Burmi hating something? Imagine that. Good offensively? It's been a while but not sure I'd use the "good" word.

 

Talent isnt always purely statistical.  Not too many people think Burmi *isn't* offensively talented.

Wouldn't that line combe put Staf on the 3rd line....4.35m per year is lots for a 3rd liner.

4th lone spots are interesting this year.

Anxious to watch the game that's coming on.

19. Boy did Winnipeg’s Nik Ehlers coast through his first two games at that tournament. But he finished well, leading a couple of scouts to laugh that Ehlers was letting everyone know he’d be more competitive at the main camp. Also: “He’s stronger than you’d think.”

I find this discussion yesterday quite interesting.  Maurice talked about changing the lines up and essentially suggested Lowry will eventually settle into being the center "that plays against the other teams top line".  And the speculation was he might get time between Ladd & Little.

 

I wonder if the Jets forecast that as the number 2 line with Ehelers-Scheif-Wheeler as the number 1 line...?

 

Could be a transitional season for more than just the inclusion of young players.  The Jets have a load of centers both now and in the pipeline so people are going to be converted to wing...

Maurice says that Lowry will eventually play against the other team's top center. They have 5 that have played top 9 center. They like Perrault at wing. Who else plays wing? Burmi is the natural choice but Maurice says they will try Lowry between Ladd and Little. (So, the 4 centers would be Lowry, Scheif, Burmi and Copp?)

 

They played L-L-L earlier today at TC.
