That means Brady Skjei, Dylan McIlrath and Oscar Lindberg are all getting a longer, harder look.
I will say, though, Skjei not being included in Tuesday's pre-season loss/tie to the Flyers is a major positive now that he's safe. Alain Vigneault said he wanted to take a harder look at some players by giving them the nod in the back-to-back set and Skjei was not included.
