Little bit of an eyebrow-raiser on the transactions wire, Barracuda sign goalie Samuel St-Helaire to an ATO (amateur tryout). EBUG? Something going on with Dell maybe? We play @ San Diego tomorrow.

Cuda sign goalie to ATO.

Might be the start of ATO season. The Oceanic has some extra 20-years old veterans and Samuel St-Hilaire who was part of Team Canada U20 last year might be looking for a new place to play.

Travelling from Rimouski to San Jose would be a long road for an Emergency Backup.

 

[LadyStanley]

WRT San Jose goaltending.
Vanecek to IR with broken cheek (after being hit by puck while sitting on bench/out week-to-week; my guess is he's out most of January). Askarov called up to NHL (backing up Georgiev).

Dell called up to AHL (backing up Romanov).

Carriere in ECHL.

And now St Hilaire on TO.



Sharks are known historically to find goalies all over the place, whenever.

Trade Season!

Ferguson upgraded ahl spc to NHL spc.

 

[Booba]

Experienced AHL netminder returns to North American after a 2 years and a half in Europe (DEL and KHL).


Houde was under contract with WBS. Before leaving for Switzerland, he had registered 20 points (11G-9A) in 23 games with Wheeling (ECHL).

Bjork last played in 2023-2024 with Rockford.

Per AHL transactions, Barracuda have signed Samuel St-Hilaire to SPC. (And per tweet assigned to ECHL today)

 

[Booba]

The Milwaukee Admirals have claimed forward Chase De Leo off waivers from the Charlotte Checkers.

De Leo had signed a one-year AHL contract with the Checkers but was subject to AHL waivers because he began the season in Europe. He appeared in nine games with HC Barys Astana of the Kontinental Hockey League and four contests with Zurich SC of the Swiss National League.

A 10th-year pro from La Mirada, Calif., De Leo had spent his entire career in North America prior to 2024-25, including 494 games in the AHL with Manitoba, San Diego and Utica. He has totaled 135 goals and 214 assists for 349 points in the AHL.

Two players moving to Europe :

Ahac played 4 games for Abbotsford

Lambert played for Maine in the ECHL while under contract with Providence.

Some further updates on players who left the AHL earlier this season.
- Greg Meireles (Springfield) has signed with a Slovakian team.
- Kalen Howarth (Milwaukee) has retired. Link
- Jermaine Loewen (Abbotsford) remains unsigned.

The Admirals dropped Scott Reedy's PTO and signed a regular season contract with him after 9 games.
