#RedWings lines: Bertuzzi-Larkin-Raymond Fabbri-Suter-Zadina Erne-Rasmussen-Gagner Rowney-Stephens-Veleno Smith/Namestnikov extras

What do they do with VEleno? He's been centering but I guess he can play wing. The first three center slots are filled and I don't think you put him on fourth line. But I think he's a better center. Could Ras still be hurt?

Noted. I dislike butchering names also so I appreciate the correction. And a reminder that my sinus infection and brain fog is a PITA but soon to be addressed with surgery. BTW, I don't have another account on this board. I think I've seen every preseason game and Rowney is just a guy IMO. Ryan at l...

Seeing rumblings of injuries to Namestnikov and Rasmussen which might keep them out at the start. I think the likelihood of Raymond and Valeno starting the season with Wings have increased.

17-6 shots. Ned sharp. Saw Raymond with Valeno. No pressure. Awful to watch.

With 8 D men then it's Namensinkov, Rowney, Ryan (I think Wings are inclined to offer him), Stephens, Gagne on the bubble. I think Giavani makes it since he would have to be exposed if sent to GR.
