Little surprised that Ylonen or Groshev didn’t stay on but I guess Luke Glendening will be ready to go by the season opener. Conor Geekie staying on the main roster isn’t surprising by any means as he could be a Calder Trophy contender this season for rookie of the year. Max Crozier still being on the main roster is interesting as they have Darren Raddysh & Nick Perbix basically competing for the right side on the third defensive line. They have depth this year on the defense which can be of value throughout the season.
Suprised by some of the Canes and Wings demotions. Being waiver eligible has it’s downside.
