No, you're right, this is about retaining his rights should he ever come back. Which, now I think about it, might have been the key to him getting qualified. Keeping his rights on the 1 in a 1000 chance he improves enough overseas costs them absolutely nothing.I thought Bjorkqvist went to Finland or something.
I'm gettin' all these D-tier prospects mixed up, man.
WB/S has a lot of openings all of a sudden.
Hallander - Poulin - Puustinen
Svejkovsky - Gruden - Nylander*
Ansons - Frasca - Legare
Devane* - Glover - Andonovski
Houde
XXXX - Fedun*
Ortiz - Maniscalco
Hanus - Swoyer
Lindberg / Gauthier / Nappier
* denotes veteran status.
Probably need another C to push Gruden down because he’s not a 2C and like 2 LD and 1 RD. Probably a goalie too. Hopefully keep Robert but I could see someone giving him an NHL 2-way deal if we don’t.
Thats a lot youngsters. Probably will get some vets in FA tho. The ones that has some NHL experience and always gets called up first so we can whine about them blocking the younger guysWB/S has a lot of openings all of a sudden.

Penguinitis. Guy was cooked the minute he chose to sign with us.what was lindberg's injury that was so severe it kept him out all year? lasting effects?
LBI, like an ankle sprain maybe?what was lindberg's injury that was so severe it kept him out all year? lasting effects?
seems like "severe ankle injury requiring surgery" was the word at development camp where he barely participated. still not healed. so exactly what i didn't want to hearLBI, like an ankle sprain maybe?
Brookbank is an interesting hire. He got experience behind an NHL bench the last couple of years. I'm sure he'll be the guy to replace Forrest if/when he goes.Taylor Haase

Id put an eBay search email notification on. They pop up on there all the timeSorry to hijack this thread for a sec, just wondering if anyone has a WBS pens jersey from the early 2000’s they’d like to sell? I’m looking specifically for the 2001 white Mario jersey/blank, any size, though I’d prefer 48 or 52. Willing to pay top dollar. Not looking for replica sizing: S/M/L etc. I’ll take a look at anything though. Thanks!
4 preseason games, unlikely to be streamed:
