For anyone in the know... are guys like Cholowski or Rasmussen eligible to play for GR in the Calder Cup playoffs once the Wings season ends?
Do not be surprised is Cholowski gets sent down to GR before the TDL and stays there for the rest of the season.
Not sure on Ehn as I have not heard anything here in GR as to what the Wings will do with him if they want him to get some playoff time here in GR. Hope to find out in the next day or two from my buddy in the organization on that.
Will also try to find out if and how it is possible for Svech to come back to GR and play (heard he could be cleared to play in March but not sure where.)
The only way Rasmussen comes to GR for the playoffs is the following:
1. Wings have to send Rasmussen to Tri-City Americans at some point (big if they even do or not) in the season and he stays there until the Americans are eliminated from their playoffs.
2. When the Americans are officially out in their playoffs and the Griffins are still in the Calder Cup playoffs, then Rasmussen can sign an ATO contract to the Griffins for the remainder of the AHL playoffs and be on the Griffins roster and play in the playoffs.
Trevor Yates was traded earlier today to the WBS Penguins for future considerations (most likely a player named and placed in Toledo (ECHL)). Yates was assigned to the Penguins ECHL affiliate (Wheeling Nailers) on the same day.
