First peek at the roster

First peek at the Ice roster, from the protected lists posted to an Internet forum. These are dated July 1, so there is a chance changes have been made since then. Teams were allowed to protect 25 players on their main roster and 14 on the futures list -- which must be 1993 or earlier birthdates. Because these are dated July 1, it is likely that there have been significant changes since then, so take this for what it's meant to be -- an early snapshot of what the team might look like come September when camp rolls around.

The frontlines will look familiar -- seven returning Ice players are back, including Sharks draftee Sean Kuraly and one of the league's top scorers in Daniil Tarasov. Jacob Fallon is back after a year at the University of Michigan. Ryan Obuchowski is the lone returning defenseman, with Jon Gillies back in net. Dalton Izyk, who dressed for a handful of games last season, is also on the roster.
