We sincerely apologize for the extended downtime. Our hosting provider, XenForo Cloud, encountered a major issue with their backup system, which unfortunately resulted in the loss of some critical data from the past year.
What This Means for You:
- If you created an account after March 2024, it no longer exists. You will need to sign up again to access the forum.
- If you registered before March 2024 but changed your email, username, or password in the past year, those changes were lost. You’ll need to update your account details manually once you're logged in.
- Threads and posts created within the last year have been restored.
Our team is working with Xenforo Cloud to recover data using backups, sitemaps, and other available resources. We know this is frustrating, and we deeply regret the impact on our community. We are taking steps with Xenforo Cloud to ensure this never happens again. This is work in progress. Thank you for your patience and support as we work through this.
In the meantime, feel free to join our Discord Server

So no SHL extension or did we buy him out?
We could have 2 lefties and 4 righties in Chicago next year.

That's a lot of RHD, but given the uncertainty at the NHL level, the more options are the merrier.

I mean next year this is what we have under contract:
Burns - NHL
Morrow - NHL/AHL?
Honka - AHL
Heimosalmi - AHL
Legault - AHL
Nystrom - AHL
I have some hope we can keep Chat, but as many as we've signed recently we're still only at 6 signed heading into next year. 7 if we end up bringing Coughlan back, though that would cement that Morrow is the #6.

Defensively Heimosalmi and possibly Nystrom could have an edge on Morrow. Fighting for a third pair spot with Rod that may matter. They both have been playing pro against men for at least a couple of years. They could be dark horse picks to steal a spot on the third pair. Heimosalmi was pretty bad in his last WJC but that’s a small sample and he’s been playing pro since.
I know we appropriately make a big deal about not having defenseman signed, but I still suspect we’re going to find vets to fill the spots. We likely won’t have any of these guys in our top six D.

He will be loaned out to Färjestad the first year.
Even if he weren't loaned to Färjestad he would have to had a spot on the NHL roster for next year or the rules would have him go back anyways due to his age and draft position. This signing was only to keep his rights and see if his development keeps going and I think use him as trade bait.

That's the technical rules, yes. But in reality I think it's negotiable whether the IIHF-aligned team is really actually going to insist on sending the boy back to Europe instead of AHL.
Back in the day we had Kuokkanen of Kärpät organization pedigree play in NA for a season and then there was serious grandstanding from Sebastian Aho's dad that another non-NHL year in NA is completely out of question, but in the end he did spend the next season in AHL anyway. And I'd like to think that Canes didn't promise to make his son the 1C if he allows Kuokkanen to stay.
