Graf has looked better on the Cuda IMO but Cardwell did have that monster game to close out Henderson so I understand rewarding him.

How has Furlong looked? I used to coach him as a kid.

Oh he's been solid in his AHL time thus far, feel like he does a little bit of everything.

Doesn't seem unreasonable to think he'll see NHL time someday, as some mentioned in another thread, but we just have a lot of bodies in front of him this season.

I think Cardwell is the more natural replacement for bottom 6 Dellandrea, even if his ceiling isn't as high as Graf's. He's got the energy, speed, grind game.

Also Cardwell already put in a full season with the Cuda so his tenure should force Graf to make it obvious he should be called up instead which as well as Graf has played it is not that obvious.

Artem Guryev assigned to Wichita (ECHL).

He hadn't appeared in a game yet for the Barracuda, is coming off an injury at the end of last season.

Just checked the Cuda stats. Didn't realize they had just one loss and that Collin Graf was the team's leading scorer. Watching him play for Quinnipiac I figured he was just a player putting up big numbers on weaker competition.

Is there NHL potential in his game?

Potential bottom six forward - maybe 30 points in a third line+PK role at his peak.

Yes. He has a surprisingly good off-puck game and high work rate in addition to being a plus scorer at the AHL level. Long-term, he could be a very good third liner. Seems to have made some progress physically over the offseason.
