Not looking good for a pre-January start for the NHL, which should *fingers crossed* mean that Laffy, Dach and Byfield get a shot.

I'd assume though, if Byfield will likely be there regardless. I can't imagine that LA has any intention of playing him enough to burn a year on his deal, unless they don't see the OHL coming back at all this year, which would be pretty detrimental for his development.
