Game 2 of the pre-season: Jets vs. Oilers projected lines

The Oilers and Jets will play their second pre-season game tonight at Rogers Place in Edmonton with a 8 pm puck drop.  Tonight’s projected lines and D pairs come to us from Mike McIntyre of the Winnipeg Free Press:

Copp-Lowry-Tanev
Vesalainen-Roslovic-Appleton
Lemieux-Griffith-Dano
Everberg-Spacek-Lipon

Morrissey-Trouba
Stanley-Morrow
Niku-Poolman

Comrie
Brossoit

Audio:

Marko Dano

Coach Maurice:  Good test for a young group facing an experienced Oilers team tonight.  Putting Appleton on a line with Vesalainen and Roslovic.  Assessing tonight’s game.  On what he noticed in Dano’s game.  What has he seen from Eric Comrie in camp and what is he looking for?  Getting young players out against McDavid.  What will he be looking for from Roslovic’s game?  Is he expecting Byfuglien/Kulikov to skate today?
