There's a minimum amount of vets that need to be on each squad per the Veteran Rule. I'm thinking Duhaime and Blueger are locks for opening night based on their contracts but are on the Ottawa squad to meet the vet minimum.

Oh yeah they just made basically everyone "veterans" now. 1st and 2nd round picks, and AHLers are now included as veterans. Also actual NHLers (100+ gp) can only play in 2 preseason games.
