WTF is up with Jayce Hawryluk? He only played 19 games with Belleville and put up 3G/8A/9 Pts. His contract runs out at the end of the season.
Is this guy injured like 2 of the other acquisitions NJ picked for the Comets? Dugan has only played 3 games for Chicago.
Only Ibragimov (LW/2G/3Pts/9GP) and Hayes (LD/1A/5GP) are healthy and playing. Both will be RFAs.
Hatakka (LD) is hurt and may not play until next season. Has 1 contract year remaining.
Hawryluk (RW/LW) and a VE by AHL rules is unknown. Will be a UFA
Emond (G) is out for the season and will be an RFA.
Comets needed Forward help more than anything especially at center.
They received 2 D, a goalie, an ECHL forward, a 27-yr-old wing.
Hawryluk is that wing, who has a .62 PPG in the AHL which is exactly the same as Jack Dugan who they traded away. A meaningless roster exchange.
Zack Hayes was the return for Dugan. He's a LD.
Comets LD:
Wotherspoon
Vukojevic
Groleau
Geertsen
Gourley
That crew can give the Comets a decent threesome every night.
Keeping Dugan and acquiring Hawryluk for futures would have been a much better deal especially if he was healthy. Dugan has only played 3 games for Chicago.
Igragimov (90), Hayes (65) Hatakka (68), Emond (1) and Hawryluk (8) are all listed on the roster.
Ibragimov - playing
Hayes - playing
Hatakka - possibly by the end of the season, but likely not until next year
Emond - out for the season
Hawryluk - ?
Of the 5 acquisitions NJ brought in only 2 are playing and both are downgrades from what was here. Essentially NJ did nothing to improve their farm and in fact weakened it.
*EDIT
This actually belongs on the Comets page. Sorry about that.
