So good news is that Mikheyev is in a normal full contact jersey now, bad news is that he’s not ready for home opener.
Lines from practice today (no Aman/Beauvillier):
Kuzmenko-Pettersson-Garland
Di Giuseppe-Miller-Boeser
Joshua-Suter-Mikheyev
Hoglander-Blueger-McWard
Hughes – Hronek
Cole – Myers
Hirose – Juulsen
Elite 4th liner McWard.
Edit: Soucy is absent. Blueger left practice after 15 minutes (he was in discomfort after blocking a shot vs Calgary).
Aman sent down, wonder why Beauvillier is out.
At least Sam Rafferty’ll probably be playing, right? Right!?
Wonder if Beau is getting traded for a dman
Aman sent down and Beau sent….. somewhere?
I don’t remember much of Mikheyev. Really looking forward to seeing him play at his full potential.
