King Heffy Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 OJ would get the call if we were expecting him to have to play. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bree2 Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 I thought Benning said he wanted to bring up some guys to get a few games in. so far recently only Macewen has slotted in. Bailley should have played too. I know it is up to Green to play them, but they just sit for games in the press box. we could have used a goal scorer last night!

CRAZY_4_NAZZY Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 Makes me wonder if JB is looking into acquiring depth for the d position moving forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-23 Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 No Rafferty? Probably a good thing, he would just sit in the press box next to Bailey, despite proving himself down in Utica 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be good for Benn to get back into the line-up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly this team needs players with more truculence. 1 hour ago, ThaManbeast said: Because if somebody gets hurt last minute theywill have somebody to play. This happens every time there's an injury. Guys get called up to fill the 'spare' slot. If another guy gets hurt, gets sick, pulls something in practice/training etc, you've got another body already recalled, practicing with the team and ready to slot in. This is how this works... 33 minutes ago, bree2 said: I thought Benning said he wanted to bring up some guys to get a few games in. so far recently only Macewen has slotted in.

IIRC, Benning actually said something like 'get a look at'. That includes how they look in practices with/against other NHL'ers FWIW. And like was the case with MacEwan last night, further injuries will dictate whether they see actual game time. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dpn1 Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 I like this call-up for the Canucks . I watch all the Comets games and he has been one of the best all round Dman in Utica. I have always thought he is a player like Tanev. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tystick Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 I think Brisebois is capable of playing a game similar to Tanev. Excited to watch him play. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ossi Vaananen Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 Breezer will be here to watch games. When a guy actually slots in, I'm thinking Juolevi or Rafferty gets the calls. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also think that maybe someone is interested in a prospect or two of ours... so maybe it would be something like Stetcher+ Brisebois for Dillion (we sorely lack any type of toughness on the back end) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool that they get a small bump in pay. But what's the point of continuing to call people up to simply ride the pine and enjoy a training session here or there without ever playing them? What’s so hard to understand? You always need an extra Defenceman that you don’t dress just in case. Every single pro team does it. It’s not rocket science that when a guy goes down you call one up. 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OJ needs to spend the whole season and playoffs 8n AHL this year. Id like to see Briese get a game but I think he's the extra D, Benn will get back into lineup. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could use another Dman with some offensive upside. Especially with a right handed shot. Im gonna take him in my fantasy draft next year if he’s still available so I’m banking on the guy haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I'm predicting once we clinch he will get some games to rest our R side for the playoffs... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
