Dean Kukan makes the club, and most likely paired on LD with Nutivaara on RD 3rd pairing.
(Kukan just signed a 2 year 1-way contract earlier this summer, for $725,000).

Carlsson & Harrington will fight for the 7th depth spot.
Davidsson has a very good shot of vaulting into the 13th/14th Forward depth position, over Hannakainan

Best 1st pairing in the league.

foligno has no business on the 2nd line. He's too slow.
They are better off putting Milano there. He's faster and frankly has better puck handling skills

Did Kukan have a good AHL campaign? Really haven't been impressed with him so far as an NHLer. Carlsson won't be a healthy scratch. He doesn't make the team if he's not playing full-time.

He is slow, but it's a shutdown line that already has Bjorkstrand there for scoring. Milano is better suited with a faster scoring line with a really good playmaking centre like Nash, and another goalscorer in Anderson.

Definitely top 3.

Kukan really came on the last part of last season and playoffs. He also had an outstanding Worlds tournament, carrying Swiss team to the finals.
The one I really want to see more of is Nutivaara. He Covers the D zone so well. If he plays 2018/19 like latter part of last year, he will start getting some recognition.
They also extended Nutivaara for 4 years.
Kukan and Nutivaara (as well as Murray getting healthy) were the only reason they let Cole walk.

what do you think wennberg is?
the only thing you do is stunt his growth as a player constantly playing him with garbage line mates like Foligno who is no help to play at his speed.

Ah, okay. Yes I've been very impressed with Nutivaara.
