The waiting Game...

So now we are waiting for the final cut, which has to be done by tomorrow at around 3 pm i believe...

The main competition is between Thomas, Bisonette and Janne...

Alot of speculation believed that the final competition would end up being between Janne and Bisonette, but with the complete absence of Thomas as of late it might be him on the chopping block. Both Bis and Janne played today and Thomas did not dress, and Janne got a look on a top line, and from what I saw he showed some good skill out there.

Really at this time I have no idea what is going to end up happening, but I do have a good feeling of Janne making the team. Right now I doubt he is going to crack the top 2, but a line I am really hoping for is Cooke - Talbot - Pesonen, I think that they could really work well together (Sniper, Grinder, Playmaker).

Basically I think Janne has to make it over Bisonette if it comes down to those 2. I understand Bis brings some toughness to the team, but I think we need to make sure that our 3rd and 4th lines have high scoring potential. If the finals taught us anything is that even if you have 2 of the best top 2 lines in hockey, if your lower lines struggle then you are in trouble.

In conclusion, if Mikey T and Ray have any sense Janne will be a member of this team to start the season (what happens when Gonch and Whits come back depends on how we start)...
