The lineup will be different but who cares....As for Heinola, all I can think of is that either they are planning on Morrissey playing on his off side with Dillon and have Stanley with Pionk or play both Stanley and Heinola together on the 3rd pairing(Heinola has played a fair bit on his right side)...or a trade is happening to one of Heinola or Stanley

I think heinola plays one way or another. Maybe something like:

Heinola-JoMo
Dillon-pionk
Stanley-demelo

Or:

Dillon-JoMo
Stanley/heinola-pionk
Stanley/heinola-demelo


But I agree, underrated for sure.

If we dont sign someone, for sure...I cant see Beau or Niku beating them out in camp

My point exactly. Even Maurice doesn’t love beaulieu that much…I hope lol

Or maybe Chevy knows how much he can get for Stanley(pre Seattle trade rumors) but didnt want to do anything until he got his guy(Dillon)

If Heinola can play top 2 minutes right away that D core does look really scary with 3 good lines. If Dubois has a bounceback next year you guys could make it to the second round at least.

I have one other question, do you think Perfetti will make the lineup right away? you guys also are pretty deep on center so Stastny kinda has to play the wing already

imo Stastny was a backup plan for Perfetti. I think he can make it out of camp but his one knock is his ability to play in the AHL(meaning its a easy way out for the Organization to send him there). In the same breath, its easier for Perfetti to jump back to the NHL if he cranks or there is an injury(you cant do that from the OHL).

It will be interesting how Perfetti, Heinola, Samberg, Stanley, Gustafsson and Vesalainen do in camp as Samberg is the only one imo that will not make it even if he plays decent
