Rohrer is perfect size for N/A hockey. He wants to play here. I wish he didn't have to go back. GL to him.
This team is stacked. GO HABS!! you too are the ultimate cheer leaders for our amazing team.
I see Rohrer's stint in training camp as a full success.
He showed why the current Swiss Champion wanted him back so badly.
But it was a sign of recognition and appreciation by MSL to the young Austrian.
To send him back now to Swiss makes completely sense because their National Liga has started already.

HERE IS THE SECRET THE SECOND LINE WILL BECOME THE THIRD LINE (((WHY))) TALKING ABOUT CHEMISTRY – WE BELIEVE THE THIRD LINE WILL DO SO GOOD THAT IT WILL BECOME THE SECOND LINE!!!!!!!!!! YOU GUYS DID NOT THINK OF THAT DID YOU >>>>> WATCH AFTER A FEW GAMES WHAT HAPPENS!!!!

It is just to balance the lines defensively. Putting a rookie with dach and laine is too much.
Roy being one of the first cuts is deffo a strong signal he's potentially on his way out of the organisation. It's a shame really but he's had more opportunities than others. Rohrer still has some seasoning to go yet. A strong season in Laval will go a long way to getting a look in next year. I don't get too hung up on who is on what line at this stage. Coaches move players to different lines for a variety of reasons, spread the offence, take advantage of player chemistry or sending a message. Once the game starts and the lines roll, who is on what line becomes largely irrelevant other than individual ego. Moving Demi to the 3rd line could be one of those instances in a line matching situation where he'd be going up against the opposition 3rd line which would give him a skill and mobility advantage. I reckon Florian Xhekaj should make the 3rd line as I'd like the idea of him playing with Demi and of course Arber. Thanks guys.
Bye bye Roy. He will be traded. He lacks NHL passion.
