because Demelo is better...you would ice a worse team just because you don't want to lose an inferior prospect? Tennyson going to get the first crack at holding down that #6 spot. There's no need to lose D-depth right now, that's all I'm saying. They might both make the team as well. Demelo #6, Tennyson #7 |

Demelo #6, Tennyson #7 I doubt that'll happen with Brown and Torres being on the roster. Unless we get rid of Brown who's completely worthless. |

I say keep Tennyson, Torres, and Brown as the healthy scratches. Send Goldobin, Mueller, and Goodrow back to the Cudas in the last roster cut. |

I think Demelo and Tennyson would benefit from splitting time on the ice and splitting time watching the games. They're both ready to show what they can do |

They're both ready to show what they can do We also don't need to carry the max of 23 players either. Hey i'm a Demelo fan, but with him being waiver exempt, he probably gets sent down with Tennyson getting the first crack at holding down that #6 spot. |

Hey i'm a Demelo fan, but with him being waiver exempt, he probably gets sent down with Tennyson getting the first crack at holding down that #6 spot. I feel you. I just think that so far Demelo has earned a spot on the opening night roster and Tennyson serves as a good 7th defender. I would like to start the year with an extra forward and an extra defender (Torres and Tennyson). Brown can spend the whole season as a healthy scratch for all I care.. just so he can show off that glorious mustache come Movember  |

If you bust your ass really hard and outplay all of your competition you still can't make the team due to the way the other lesser players contracts are structured... Does anyone else see how crazy this is? Am I alone on this one? |

Does anyone else see how crazy this is? Am I alone on this one? Sometimes you're just victim of your contract status though. Which gives certain players the edge no matter what. Brown and Torres are perfect examples of this. I for one would rather Demelo be playing everyday down at the Cudas playing special teams than have him up here alternating with Tennyson and no special teams play. We don't need to handle Demelo like we did Mirco last season. If Demelo's on the big club he needs to play every game, not split time with someone. |

Demelo should be our 6th defenseman on the third pair with Brendan Dillon. He should play on that 2nd PP unit with Pickles or Martin, and that's how we should roll coming out of camp! Defensemen like Tennyson are dime a dozen. He does nothing for me. So I have no problem with him sitting as our 7th until someone is injured or needs a day off. |

But that's not going to happen though imo. Tennyson's going to get the first crack at that #6 spot and by the looks of Braun will get the first crack of being the right hander on the 2nd pp unit. |

None of us know what's going to happen. You're making a TON of suppositions and assumptions that Deboer is going to steer the ship the same as McLellan. I'm not saying that it won't turn out like that, but until we make the mistake of putting Tennyson out there every night I'm going to remain optimistic we make the correct move instead. |

I'm just saying what I think will happen, by what i'm hearing. Even if Demelo makes the team he'll be alternating with Tennyson, which i'm not a fan of doing that to Demelo just saying. Also Tierney might not make the team with Hertl taking over the 3rd line center. |
