S. Starrett - G

EDM

Shane Starrett has been assigned to Wheeling of the ECHL.

Starrett signed an AHL contract with the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins in late October for the 2020-21 season. He posted five wins with a 3.63 goals-against average and .874 save percentage in 14 AHL games with Bakersfield last season.

Z. Bogosian - D

TOR

Toronto GM Kyle Dubas believes the Maple Leafs could use seven blueliners at times during games in 2020-21.

"The depth of our D would lend itself to this and I wouldn't be surprised to see us use it from time to time," Dubas said on Saturday. He mentioned that Zach Bogosian's penalty kill ability and Mikko Lehtonen's power-play skills could become factors in this decision, but it will ultimately to be up to coach Sheldon Keefe if it's implemented. Dressing seven defensemen in games could also provide Toronto's star forwards with more ice time during even-strength situations.

M. Rasmussen - F

DET

Michael Rasmussen has three goals and 11 points in 10 games with the Graz 99ers.

Rasmussen has been a disappointment offensively since the Red Wings made him the ninth overall pick in the 2017 Draft. He spent all of last season in the AHL, scoring seven times and adding 15 assists in 35 games after scoring eight and adding 10 assists in 2018-19 for the Red Wings. Detroit sees him as a two-way center but he lost time last season due to injury and that hampered his development at center. The move to Europe will help that and he should be in good shape to make the Red Wings once training camp begins in North America.

E. Pasquale - G

TB

Edward Pasquale has been even better this season in the KHL after a great season last year.

Pasquale went over to the KHL after seeing his first NHL action in the 2018-19 season, playing three games for the Tampa Bay Lightning. The Bolts chose not to re-sign the netminder and he headed across the pond, signing with Astana Barys and going 24-18-1 with a 2.03 GAA and a .930 save percentage. This season he has been even better as he is 12-4-2 with Yaroslavl Lokomotiv with a 1.53 GAA and a .937 save percentage. The 30-year-old may never get another chance in the NHL but he is carving out a nice career in Russia.

T. Benson - F

EDM

Tyler Benson is enjoying his time in Switzerland despite contracting the coronavirus back in October.

Benson was loaned by the Oilers to GCK of the Swiss Hockey League in September and has two goals and 10 points in 10 games thus far. “I had a bad fever … it was like a bad flu. I was wearing my mask at the rink, trying to stay as safe as possible washing my hands, using hand sanitizer. Not sure how or where I got it, but a few other players tested positive at the same time,” a now-healthy Benson said. Benson, who was selected 32nd overall in the 2016 Draft, is looking to make the Oilers this season as a bottom-six forward. He saw his first NHL action this past season and picked up a solitary assist in seven games.

I. Samsonov - G

WSH

Former Washington goaltender Olie Kolzig said that Ilya Samsonov has plenty of upside and has the ability to be just like Andrei Vasilevskiy.

That's heady praise from the Capitals professional development coach as Vasilevskiy is widely considered to be the best goaltender in the NHL. Kolzig also thinks that the addition of Henrik Lundqvist to the mix will be a valuable learning tool for Samsonov. "[Samsonov's] still a young guy and he's going to have some rough patches," Kolzig said, "So you need that veteran guy that's going to be able to get in there and do the job because we are still a competitive team that still have aspirations of winning another Stanley Cup and you don't want to sacrifice that with having the growth of a young goaltender." Look for Samsonov to garner 60-65 percent of the starts for the Capitals this season. He should be a bottom-end first goaltender or a top of the line second netminder on your fantasy team and he will make a great pick in dynasty pools if he is still available.

E. Bemstrom - F

Emil Bemstrom will return to the Columbus Blue Jackets as his loan agreement with HIFK has ended.

Bemstrom, had eight goals and 17 points in 16 games for the Finnish side, who only played once in the last two weeks. Bemstrom had 10 goals and 20 points in 56 games with Columbus last season, his first in the NHL. He has some fantasy upside and is expected to have a good shot at being a top-six forward for John Tortorella and the Columbus Blue Jackets this season.

Q. Byfield - F

LA

David Satriano of NHL.com expects Quinton Byfield to debut with the LA Kings this season.

Byfield (6-foot-4, 215 pounds) has the physical tools to make an immediate impact in the NHL, but it will depend on LA's plan for the second-overall pick in the 2020 NHL Draft. "Physically, I think he has the ability to step in the NHL with his size and his skating ability," Kings general manager Rob Blake said in October. "Those players that are drafted in that type of level, there's always that type of look at them to see if they project to be in the NHL as soon as next year. Physically, his size would do that, but there's a lot more that goes into it." Byfield has said that he will not report to the Kings' camp until the World Junior Hockey Championships have concluded (scheduled from Dec. 25, 2020 to Jan. 5, 2021). Initial reports had the NHL wanting to start on Jan. 1 but that is far from a guarantee. Byfield is worth a spot at the end of your bench to start the season.
