They only had 2 spots?

Only natural they give it to these 2 instead of Belzile and Pitlick.

"Other players like Alex Belzile and Rem Pitlick were also be ineligible for the AHL Playoffs, as they’d had to have been put on waivers on Thursday at 2 p.m. in order to be eligible.

Both having played more than ten games since last going through waivers, Belzile and Pitlick would have had to go through waivers, ..."

"Initially, the Canadiens also wanted to paper Justin Barron, but, due to suffering an injury in Thursday night’s game against the L.A. Kings, the NHL refused the transaction; as you cannot demote injured players, even if it’s only on paper."

No bueno for the Rocket, trailing 0-2 with a minute to go in the first.

Rocket broadcasts on RDS are unwatchable. They're always showcasing players on other teams who happen to be local.

I'd much rather they spend their intermissions on the Rocket, who's coming, who's going and when. Stats, projections, more in-depth analysis, their chances for the playoffs, what will happen to Primeau who will no longer be waiver-exempt next year, etc. Plus, it's always Jasmin Leroux with those assignments and he sounds like he's rehearsing a script.

What do you think of the blue jerseys?
They're much nicer than their regular home jerseys. They really pop and you can easily see all the jersey numbers.

These teams are becoming very confrontational, already two fighting incidents in this game.

Yeah the numbers are barely readable on their home jerseys

Simoneau with a big hit and a fight

Edit: 3-0 Rochester

By the way, the AHL trade deadline is next Friday. Players signed to AHL contracts can still be traded and be eligible for the playoffs. Today was the deadline to have players on NHL deals in order for them to be eligible.
