EDGE Analysis

Even fully fit, Lauko will be hard-pressed to earn a spot on the 23-man roster and figures to spend the bulk of the upcoming 2021-22 campaign playing for AHL Providence. Still, after racking up 19 points in 23 minor-league games last year, the Czech winger could show the team enough in camp to put himself on the shortlist of potential call-ups throughout the season.
