Recalled/Assigned: 2023-24 Colorado Eagles and Utah Grizzlies (ECHL)

[tigervixxxen]

Kiviranta still having immigration issues or something? Also still don’t see what happened with Kozun

I think Kozun declined the offer to play in the AHL.

Eagles are the same type of team, grind it out with bottom 6 types through the whole roster. They’ll make the “playoffs” because 7 of the 10 division teams make the play-in. If they get home ice for that they’ll make the first round of the actual playoffs. They are noticeably better at home and have been since becoming the Eagles.

Im most curious how call up favorite Pavel is going to get a look since he’s experiencing “role acceptance” playing on the Eagles fourth line.

Not great for Malinski to be bypassed already by a journeyman ahler.

Assuming he even plays.

Schueneman is going on the trip in case of an injury. Malinski and Caleb Jones are spending their time practicing and playing with the Eagles, this is better for their learning and development

 

[Chiarelli]

None of these recent college signings are panning out really or filling roster spots unfortunately

Jones and Malinski are 26 and 25 years old respectively. They aren't learning anything else in the AHL.

Malinski would learn more from practicing with NHLers than playing games in the AHL imo.

Assuming he even plays.

Either way Malinski needs to be around NHLers and NHL practices to improve imo. I don't think AHL time at his age is going to do much but that's just my opinion.

Disagree. If Malinski had been great or even adequate in preseason then I could see it, but he was an outright disaster, he needs to get more accustomed to the pace of the game at the pro level, and that will not happen by throwing him straight into the NHL where he'll barely play.

Well...they're adding organizational depth if nothing else. All they need is for one of these guys to pan out as a decent NHLer.

Unfortunately they're finding out much like Sakic and Roy found out when they first arrived and tried to fill out the depth chart with European free agents--there is just no real substitute for drafting and developing talent.

Tufte has been racking up points in the A since going down. I’m actually excited for when he finally gets a call up

Let him get all the confidence and good feelings going. Injuries will happen at some point and him (or whoever gets the call) coming up with some confidence and swagger would be...different from last season.

It's kinda funny seeing how much bigger he was then his linemates. I agree with Tufte building confidence. It would be amazing if he gets called up and is provided with a real opportunity with some form of talent.

We know how Bednar loves career AHL slugs.


Did Caleb get to see Popeye get his championship ring last night?

 

[CobraAcesS]

Tufte had 2 goals and 14 shots in his Eagles debut tonight!

Holy shit lol


Are they still trying to get him to learn the center position or no?

Now that we have some useable NHL bottom six players no one is ever getting injured again.

That was a boss goal the way he mugged the Dman to get the puck and went straight to the net to burry it.

 

[Pokecheque]

Hopefully Tufte gets a chance against the Jets. I bet that guy has no love for Rick Bowness.

Bowness took a leave of absence for his sick wife

Ah yes, I heard, that's too bad. Hopefully whatever it was, it's not too serious.

Seizure I think

God f***ing dammit Middleton what the hell did you do

It’s just disgusting.

Also Scheuneman didn’t even play last weekend for the Eagles, he certainly didn’t get chosen because anyone thinks he’s better than just being expendable for a week.

That said, its a bit of a different story for minor league hero Malinski this season. Nobody really is doing anything except Tufte and Holland. Tufte will 100% be the first forward call up utilized. On defense it will be either Hunt or Jones.

He should be suspended for that. Egregiously dirty in that he practically body slams Podkolzin and the puck is LONG gone.

It doesn't even look that bad in slo mo. Looks like Podkolzin just lost his balance

It couldn't be that clean, even the video of the incident violates the term of service for this website.
