abid

i see he's struggling this year in the pre-season. i was thinking he would get a chance on mario's wing maybe riding shotgun as a guy with some talent and toughness, but i guess not. i was just wondering what kind of year you were expecting from him this year statistics wise and in what role/line?

He'll probably be on the 3rd line, posisbly 2nd.

I see maybe 20 goals and 15 assists if he plays the full season.

He was a candidate to play with Lemieux, but who wasn't? Abid played himself out of competition and others played into it(Koltsov).
