Who did they get to replace the injured PTO? This is getting crazy now.
I haven’t found a news release but it looks like they purchased the contract of one of the statistical top ECHL guys who isn’t signed by a Nhl team. 27 year old Raleigh native Billy Christopoulos. He did not have a good year at all in the AHL last season with a 6 GAA. Doing much better in the ECHL with a 2.22. He just won ECHL goalie of the month with a 1.97 GAA run in December.

Notes from the game...

Utica has played 4 less games but Chicago moves into first on points percentage with .800, Utica has .788.

Warsovsky said Mattheos is the most improved player on the team this season. Also complimented Keane on his play over the last half of the season.

lackey is uninjured now. He was back up last night. I dont know if Christopoulus was returned to the ECHL or not.

That's an interesting comment on Mattheos given an extreme lack of scoring production. Must be doing a hell of a job on the little things. I haven't been able to watch as much this year as I did last year.

He did miss basically 2 seasons of hockey (25 GP) due to cancer and injury, so just getting back into the game probably took a lot of work for him

Wells is healthy and called up to wChicago. With Lyon and Wells there, Manella and Lackey were released from their PTO. Maybe they didn’t see what they wanted to keep Manella around. He had a .955 sv percentage.

Stephen Harper was traded for futures.

Wild way to lose (pun intended).

score a shorthanded goal to tie it 4 minutes in. Allowing a shortie 7 minutes later to give them the lead. Drury had an assist. The rest of the scoring was veterans.

Wolves lost in OI 3-2. Wolves scored 2 in the 3rd to take the lead. Gave up the tying goal with 3:30 left, 30 seconds after taking the lead. Staal scored the GWG in OT.

All veteran scoring. Lyon in net.

I want to see the world burn, particularly HFCanes, so I am highly interested in Estallo

does this thread title sort of mess with anyone else on here that grew up in acc country?

i only sail with the pilot, dammit.
Dammit. Can't get the damn song out of my head now.:wally

Sail with the Pilot at the wheel
On a ship sturdy from its mast to its keel.
He guides through storm and wave,
Insures you while you save.

Sail with the Pilot o'er the seas,
He's got plans for every growing family.
Worries are far behind you
There's really peace of mind, too.

When you sail with the Pilot all the way,
So get on board the Pilot ship today!
