Line Change
PL3-Stajan-Jackman
Looks like Stajan is demoted to the fourth line, playing between two bruisers. Don't expect much from him unless he returns to a scoring line.
Line Change
Given how Brent Sutter has managed lines through the exhibition round, there's reason to think Matt Stajan is in a dogfight for his spot on the roster with guys like Roman Horak, Paul Byron and perhaps even Lance Bouma.
Stajan failed to impress last season, moving from the team's top line to the fourth. Last season, the playmaking pivot still managed six goals and 31 points, indicating he could have value offensively for a different team. Don't expect too much playing time for Stajan unless he outworks Mikael Backlund, Brendan Morrison and Olli Jokinen.
