Everett FitzhughHOST
You know, Matty Beniers is gonna take another big step.
Everett FitzhughHOST
You've got Winterton and Melanson.
Everett FitzhughHOST
You know, you're probably gonna see OFM up here at some point.
Everett FitzhughHOST
Ville Leino Vynan made the roster out of camp.
7 MINS LATER
Everett FitzhughHOST
Yeah.
Everett FitzhughHOST
Um, you know, so I think it's, it started then.
Everett FitzhughHOST
But when you, when you know that Curtis Douglas or Ville Heinola or Jacob Melanson are gonna be there to, to keep watch and, and to protect, but also we saw Bobby McMann, we saw Matty Beniers, we saw Berkly Catton in the preseason, all of the-- Mackie Samuskevich also got, got mixed up in, in a-
Al KoniskiPANELIST
Yeah
RJHOST
And it doesn't matter who's on the ice or not.
RJHOST
You don't have to wait until Curtis Douglas is out there or Jacob Melanson or one of those guys who can deal with it.
RJHOST
They will deal with it.
RJHOST
But if they're not out on the ice, the expectation is that it has to be everybody.
Jeff PatersonHOST
Uh, there was that sequence midway through the second period, uh, started with Linus Karlsson and Matty Beniers.
Jeff PatersonHOST
Uh, Jacob Melanson is always looking for trouble.
Jeff PatersonHOST
And, uh, again, it's Luke Schenn that's, uh, there just to sort of tamp things down.
Jeff PatersonHOST
You know, if you wanna start something, you know that Luke Schenn's gonna stick up for his teammates.
Zaiem BegHOST
You know, Matty Beneers looks bigger.
Zaiem BegHOST
You get maybe a step forward from Jacob Melanson, who looks like he's been working on his offensive game, right? And so you get these improvements.
Zaiem BegHOST
You get this growth, right? know capo caco is also he's 25 he's young he can improve there as well but really it's it's it's berkeley catton shane wright maddie veneers they that is a a major source of uh wins and so that's that's like 5.4 okay so all right if joey de corde plays back up to his level that's another two And then also, again, these are in the top 25% of outcomes.
Zaiem BegHOST
There's a lot of luck in close games.
Zaiem BegHOST
And so we can assume that Otavainen, Nke Koko, and Jake O'Brien will be sent down to Coachella Valley at some point.
Zaiem BegHOST
And then you will have Ben Myers, Curtis Douglas, Oscar Fisker-Molgaard, Ryan Winterton, and Jacob Melanson fighting it out for the last forward spots on the fourth line.
Zaiem BegHOST
Now, you will notice, and we just mentioned this, Yanni Newman and Jagger-Ferkus not here.
Zaiem BegHOST
Disappointing, I think would be the word here.
20 MINS LATER
Zaiem BegHOST
Where do you see that scenario playing out? How would that play out exactly?
Jason BotterillSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Well, I think you look at different players that we've brought in, whether that's a Samuskevich, obviously Matty Beniers, Berkeley Cat, and Shane Wright.
Jason BotterillSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
We look at some of our players who the physicality that a Jacob Melanson can bring or Ryan Winterton.
Jason BotterillSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
So it does add up very quickly there.
DerekHOST
The third line, Capo Caco, Berkeley Catton, Shane Wright on the right wing.
DerekHOST
And then the fourth line, Ben Myers, Freddie Goudreau, and Jacob Melanson.
DerekHOST
looking at this i feel like that could be a playoff team how are you feeling about this
MattHOST
i would make a couple little swisheroos i would stick i mean everyone would stick chandler stevenson down the line from line two i'd like to put shane right up on line two to get that veteran uh wing setup of McMahon and Eberle, and then have Catton working with Stevenson, because I think they were pretty good last season.
Darren BrownHOST
What I see as the bottom, there's six players, I think, that are kind of in line for the fourth line, in my opinion.
Darren BrownHOST
Ryan Winterton, Freddy Gaudreau, Lil Yanni Newman, Curtis Douglas, Ben Myers, Jacob Melanson.
Darren BrownHOST
To me, those are the six players based on what I've seen.
Darren BrownHOST
Is there enough offense there to create that kind of a fourth line out of those six players?
30 MINS LATER
Patrik AllvinGUEST
know, I
John BarrHOST
think
Everett FitzhughGUEST
Jacob Melanson could potentially be.
Patrik AllvinGUEST
I have a really good feeling that

Everett FitzhughHOST
Jacob Melanson behind the goal, backhand in front, turn to side, Ty Nelson scores! Ty Nelson in the high slot, follows up the play.
Everett FitzhughHOST
Steps into a twisted wrister.
Everett FitzhughHOST
And with just four seconds to play in the first, the Kraken double their lead,
Al KoniskiPANELIST
Ty Nelson jumped on a loose puck there.
Al KoniskiPANELIST
But that all started behind the net.
Al KoniskiPANELIST
Jacob Melanson forechecking hard, knocks his guy off the puck, gets the puck up to the front of the net, and it's a puck that's mishandled that goes right out to Ty Nelson.
Al KoniskiPANELIST
He finds a top corner.

Mike BentonHOST

Mike BentonHOST
But how did this one build? We begin in period one early on with Logan Morrison earning...
Mike BentonHOST
A great chance to break on through for the game's first goal.
Mike BentonHOST
That goal again coming on the power play from Jake O'Brien and K.O. Fleury.
Mike BentonHOST
Down to the final seconds, a period one, and Katai Nelson beat the horn.
