Niederreiter and Comeau scratched
If you own Niederreiter, make sure to bench him tonight. The rookie has no points through three games. He could very well return to the Portland Winterhawks after playing six more games.

#Isles practice at Iceworks today. Nino Niederreiter skating with Moulson and Parenteau.
Niederreiter skating with linemates could be a good indication he is healthy. Considering John Tavares was absent from today's practice, it becomes a bit more difficult to asses the situation.

"I want to keep pushing myself," Toews said. "I've always wanted to be a great offensive player and I definitely worked on some things this offseason to improve in that situation. You always want to be one of the best players on your team and across the league. I feel like I could be one of those guys this year. People talk about it, but it's about time to fulfill that potential."
The sky is certainly the limit for Toews, who posted career highs in assists and points last season. At this point in his career, he should continue to improve, landing in the 35-goal, 75-point range. With so many question marks in the first round, the former 3rd overall pick certainly would not have been a reach.

But the NHL will have to wait. The Red Wings have a crowded roster and a preference for allowing prospects to marinate in the minors. So, Nyquist will start the season with the Grand Rapids Griffins.
Nyquist continues his preseason tear, making the Red Wings makes some very tough decisions. Last season, this collegiate standout scored 18 goals and 51 points through 36 games with the University of Maine before playing eight games for the Grand Rapid Griffins. Although he will start the season in the AHL, keep his name in mind for the future.

“Look at the stats from the league. He’s a pretty good player. I’ve seen enough to know that over the course of games that I’ve watched him that he’s an excellent player and I don’t only look at what he presents, in terms of skill. It’s his mind that’s so sharp.”
Scheifele continues to impress the team's brass with his near dominant outings. Scheifele scored 22 goals and 75 points in 66 games with the Barrie Colts of the OHL. If he makes the team, expect him to play a relatively prominent role on a scoring line.

We’re still not ready to hand the seventh overall selection a spot on the opening-night roster, but he’s sure doing his part to make a strong case for inclusion.

After Tuesday’s virtuoso performance (two goals, four points), everyone is curious what the seventh overall pick is going to do for an encore. Can he keep up his high level of play? The 18-year-old has met every challenge so far, so it would be tough to bet against him right now.
