Hot Links: Thursday, October 7

Morning, folks. Happy over the hump day.

Edmonton takes to the ice tonight at Rogers Place, with the Vancouver Canucks next in line to take a beating.

With this being the second-to-last game in Edmonton’s preseason schedule, the calibre of both lineups is anyone’s guess. You could argue for dressing an opening night roster, but there are still cuts to be made and both teams are running out of runway in terms of gathering the information necessary to make them. Stay tuned.
