CapFriendly reports him as slide eligible.

No effect, he will slide. I do hope they bring him up for at least one of the last 2 games as a little reward/motivator. I don't see much point in having guys who won't be around like Sanford or Asplund on the ice, might as well reward somebody who is in the future plans.

Yep. Rotate the emergency loans and play these last two games for the value they offer: talent evaluation. It's not like the guys have to save Hynes' job at this point.

It might not even be the worst thing ever to send a few extra guys down to Milwaukee early for their last two regular season games down there.

It would be really sad if everybody parachuted in just for the playoffs, but for whatever reason didn't quite click/adjust right away and it actually ended up hurting the Ads. It's a short series. Although at least by getting the bye past the play-in rounds they'll have lots of time for practice. And there is still a game on Sunday that everybody could play for tune-up purposes.

So... whatever will be. I have to revise my post on playoff bandwagoning to say "Admirals!"

I can’t even see the puck..

Those special jerseys look kind of nice in action too.

My daughter has Anthony Del Gaizo's #8. He didn't play, but I saw him on the ice for warm ups.

Neither could the goalie. It was a good screen.

Great goal! It was a good game. Too bad they couldn't beat the Wolves and the refs.

My wife pointed out that I am the "white blob" above the "N" in the HOMETOWN sign.

I wore my white Admirals polo for Milwaukee Day 4-14, the same as the Area Code.

She stayed home and watched the game on TV because she is ill. She is a charmer.

Nice. Anthony is a good example of why it would be nice to populate a new ECHL team. Well, or possibly why we don't need to! From the fan perspective anyway, it would be nice to have 10 guys in the ECHL who are already affiliated and ready for callup. I don't know how much work it is for them to just keep bringing unaffiliated spares and substitutes, though. They sure had to bring a ton of them this year. Maybe it's so easy that it's not that big a deal for them.

I guess the jerseys are nice from the front view, but white numbers on a white band at the back probably aren't ideal for viewing.

My wife said that Anthony was with the Admirals before this season. The Hockeydb says otherwise, but maybe he signed an ATO after coming from U Mass Amherst. If he never played in a game it probably wouldn't show. Anthony came from the ECHL South Carolina Stingrays.

Nicholas is the youngest brother. He is in Junior A.

I am pretty sure that the Admirals have a call list. They are usually the guys who don't make the team in their brief camp before the season starts and after Nashville's ends. If you can't call your brother, who can you call?

Bouchard has been in the Admirals camp for 2 or 3 years. Bouchard played 2 games last year and 21 games this year. He has been a project, but he is improving.

Any idea if they sell those online?
