After a busy morning covering Team Neufeld we switched our focus to Team Lesuk for the afternoon.
Illness:
2019 4th rounder Henri Nikkanen is sick as per Kevin Cheveldayoff.
Lines & D Pairs:
What would day 1 of camp be without us overanalyzing lines and D pairs from a group that represents only half the regulars on the team. But this is hockey in a Canadian market so here is how things looked this morning:
Ehlers-Namestnikov-Iafallo
Niederreiter-Lowry-Appleton
Barlow-Lambert-Ford
Torgersson-Toninato-Levis
He-Zhilkin-Lucius
Fleury-Pionk
Stanley-DeMelo
Sautner-Bauer
Anhorn-Barteaux
Kahkonen
Comrie
Note:
Brad Lambert and Nikolaj Ehlers would be a deadly fast combination. Chaz Lucius, who is slowly being worked back into game shape, looked good out there.
Media:
