Sandin, Marinch, gravel will be the 5/6/7 imo. Maybe schmaltz ahead of gravel for the rhd effect though.
Sandin seems like a stone cold lock based on babs' ejaculation over him.
Sandin I can see getting a 9ish game tryout in the regular season until Dermott is back. I doubt Marcinin is anywhere but the AHL come opening night, he may see 5-10 games of spotting duty if there's injuries on the back end. Gravel hasn't shown anything, other than that he's an OK fighter, that's not good enough to secure a spot.
I'd say the blueline come opening night looks something like this:
Rielly-Ceci
Barrie-Muzzin
Harpur-Sandin
*Schmaltz as the 7D
