My thing is, while the WJC would be of benefit, does he really have anythg 2 prove in JR?
There's no reason to believe he made considerable progress, but WHAT IF he comes to camp and impresses beyond expectations and then some.
I personally think he will be going back to the dub and the WJC, but why discount him as NHL ready already?
What if he is the best defender in camp and proves he belongs? Send him down? Why?

Jones is not a comparable for Reilly so I don't see how that affects the conversation at hand.
As for 'holding a player back' that is not my point, I said he's not ready and I stand by that. You're using a hypothetical scenario to argue my prediction/observation.
Maybe he does come in a beast and force his way onto the roster, maybe Reimer wins the Veznia, maybe Kulemin scores 30 goals, maybe Bozak is a good palyer.......anything can happen

David Clarkson goes for the reverse Wendel Clark and will wear No. 71 for the #leafs.
I'm not a fan of the contract and also not a fan of the number.
Who will be kessels center next year?
Will bozak or kadri be that guy? Also Who of them gets topline PP?
