With a good preseason Zadina beats out Svechnikov for the open wing spot.
Tough to predict Bower's future with the D log jam going forward.
On a side note(s): GR is going to do a heck of a juggling act trying to get the high-end prospects (Veleno, Ras, Zadina) time while playing the vets (Elson, Puempel, Kuffner, Terry) enough. Imagine this will be the last year for Turgeon in the organization, he's pretty much indefinitely buried on the center chart now.
I would think Svech will be in the AHL being waiver exempt. Probably having Rass or Zadina make the team preferably Zadina. Flip Nielsen to 3c and Filppula to 2C seems like they are practicing that way. If Veleno plays well in the exhibition games there is a possibility he may play to. Should be an interesting couple games
