Stierlitz Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Utica Comets Director of Hockey Operations Pat Conacher announced today that the Vancouver Canucks have reassigned Ludwig Blomstrand, and have released forward Tyler Shattock from his professional tryout contract. Both players will report to the Kalamazoo Wings of the ECHL. Blomstrand, 22, recorded 45 points (33-12-45) and 32 penalty minutes in 53 games with Kalamazoo last season. The Upsalla, Sweden, native began the 2013-14 season with the Comets and appeared in seven games, without recording a point. Blomstrand was selected by Vancouver in the fourth round (#120 overall) in the 2011 NHL Entry Draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UticaHockey Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 so, safe to assume Fox made the roster? I believe there are still 15 forwards in camp if you count Stewart as a forward. There is no 23 man roster limit in the AHL so it will depend on how many extra guys Green wants sitting around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CRAZY_4_NAZZY Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 With Markstrom out for a while, and Backman up, Joe Cannata has a real chance to make a name for himself. Hope he does well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alfstonker Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 Love the Utica video on the front page. When Green was talking about how the previous year the fans gave them a standing ovation after their SEVENTH DEFEAT in a row to start the season, man that was really humbling. Not a bandwagon to be seen. Our fans could learn a lot about positivity and getting behind the team from these guys. They seem to make more noise in the Aud than 18000 Canucks fans do. We should bus them in on game nights. I really hope they get that Calder Cup this season as they deserve it. Go Utica Go!!! I'll be paying even more attention to the Comets this season.

If not then put Gaunce in place of Shink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghostsof1915 Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 The fans in Utica put our fans to shame. Go anywhere in the NHL I swear we are the only city with people in suits and non-stop on their cellphones. In Toronto with all the businesses, and head offices there, they go to the games in t-shirts, jerseys etc, or at least in Leaf colours, and cheer like mad. Rogers arena? The lower bowl might as well be a library. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canuckledraggin Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 Hm I took this from the Utica's website but it definitely not the opening night roster, too many players... It sure is. There are no roster limits in the AHL. The real question is, who is showing well in practice and in the opening line up. I have a feeling Green will have a veteran line up and slowly start to mix the younger players in as the season progresses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
