Read.Couturier.Simmonds
Umberger.Lecavalier.Akeson
Rinaldo.Raffl.PEB/Laughton

MacDonald.Coburn
Streit.Grossmann
Schenn.MDZ (I have a gut feeling this pairing is going to break out this year.)

Mason

Very interesting. I like the lines on paper as well.

Hopefully Gee can get Schenn going offensively.

I think Luke Schenn with MDZ might be real good, believe it or not

They could really compliment each other well. I'm very optimistic for them.

 

[flyersfan4706]

My bold prediction of the season is that we will all be in love with Bellemare by April. Really pulling for him.

 

[mall3013]

These lines look very good. I'm really looking forward to Luke Schenn and MDZ. Let the countdown continue.

 

[Retroram52]

Umberger.Lecavalier.Akeson: This line is very curious. You have the force with Umberger, the experience and savy of Lecavalier, and the athletic speed of Akeson. Could be a very interesting line indeed.

Actually that line's speed is probably the most concerning part of that lineup. Akeson isn't the fastest dude in the world either. He's deceptively slow for his size.

another great article from Bill. Touches on highlights from rookie camp. Sounds like Ghost and Aube Kubel (henceforth known as NAK) are making waves. Love to hear it.

 

[flyersfan4706]

@davegisaac: In tomorrow's rookie game, Morin will play with Gostisbehere. Laughton will center Taylor Leier and Aube-Kubel.

Those are some pretty good young dmen we have.

Rookie game starts in 15 minutes. CSN Philly is supposedly streaming it for those who can watch.
