well they are giving him a look in practice, but I swear I read (it may have been here actually) that he can't play in a game unless he's under contract.


That's my understanding also. White is still practicing and no decision yet.

He was the 13th forward in practice with Heinen and Czarnik sent to Providence, Bergeron and Backes in the line-up and Spooner's injury status uncertain.

What's the deal with Ryan White?

my prediction, they`ll sign him, some here will be screaming with praise that finally this team has toughness.

He`ll play, he`ll hit, he may drop the mitts, then he`ll take ill timed penalties and many here will immediately go to the Sweeney thread and hammer him for signing this stiff

Just my prediction

If Beleskey plays over Heinen then we have a problem. Good message to send, play great and be the best forward in the bottom 6, get buried in Providence.

It may play out this way but Beleskey should get 20 games to sink or swim

Heinen has done nothing to deserve a demotion. I want to see Cehlarik and Agostino on the Bruins too, but not at the expense of Heinen. Pick your fourth liner, I’d rather have Heinen playing over them.

Yep, a 100% absolute guess on my part but I`m wondering if Sweeney wants to see what Beleskey looks like when a return of Bergy and maybe Backes occurs which will allow Butch to place personnel in spots they are best suited for?

Either way, it will all come down to Beleskey and how he plays, he`s been better this year but considering how low that bar got last year...I`m pulling for the guy, appreciated what he brought in year 1, it would be a benefit if he could find that game again but I`m not so sure
