They could at least wait after tonight's game.....I'm surprised they call someone from 3R who are in the middle of their own playoff run.
I called it this morning.I'm surprised they call someone from 3R who are in the middle of their own playoff run.
Ya. They knew Wotherspoon was out long term. They knew Trudeau was at least nursing something. Then they cut the ATO guys? (I think they had a college D or 2 as well as Protz). The only logical reason is that none of them were eligible to play in the playoffs? Otherwise, why cut them now when you’re short and have 2 rounds left? Then you hurt the Lions by calling up their best guy only to have him sit. This is bad player management in my opinion. And they could potentially lose more D as time goes on. (I hope not of course)I'm surprised they call someone from 3R who are in the middle of their own playoff run.

The college D was cut right after the Belleville game. He was not part of the squad for the playoffs. The only reason he even got an ATO was because he was near Belleville and Laval wanted to rest guys. He was never a candidate for games that matter.
Are there any extras left for the next round?
That seems thin with 2 possible 7 game series coming up.Sevigny who got recalled from the Lions.

Are you sure Nijhoff is on an AHL contract?If you want the extras not yet recalled from the Lions, you have:
Forwards: Beaucage, Nijhoff, Novak, Mianscum
D: Jandry
Goalies: Cavallin, Jones
Are you sure Nijhoff is on an AHL contract?
Mianscum is not AHL replacemesnt calibre. Neither is Jones.
Cavallin and Beaucage are decent; Novak and Jandric won't embarass themselves.
Oh, and Condotta can play D in an in-game pinch.
What is the lineup tonight?
I know nothing about Charlotte other than they have very few prospects and are very heavy with AHL Veterans.

I did not watch last game but what hapened? They allowed only 19 shots and lost 5-1?
They allowed many odd man rushes, including on the power play.I did not watch last game but what hapened? They allowed only 19 shots and lost 5-1?
