Great news all this mumbo jambo ends and players know where they go next season.
Go Thunderbirds!
And we’d have to trade for him before we could sign him.I also think there’s a decent chance we bring Josh Ho-Sang along with us from San Antonio, although we have to sign him first
And we’d have to trade for him before we could sign him.
I have a feeling this is just joking on your part.
But Seattle does already have their AHL franchise going to Palm Springs. They bought the available 32nd AHL franchise last year, so we don't have to worry about them taking an affiliation away. Home - AHL Palm Springs
All true, but you can’t really skip that step.That isn’t strictly true. If NYI wants to re-sign him, they have first dibs. But I’d say it’s pretty clear he has worn out his welcome there, and I don’t really see any likelihood that they qualify him. Then he’s a free agent and he can choose to sign with anybody, and hopefully it’s with the team that opened it’s doors to him when he was down. No guarantee, but I’d say there are decent odds that’s what goes down.
Can’t forget about Toropchenko as well. He looks to be an eventual NHL’er. Maybe Nikita Alexandrov will go pro too.
Also agree that we’ll likely bring in Ho-Sang past this year.
So I used their 'contact us' form on their website to ask if they'd open those jersey's up for a 3rd pre-order as there are probably quite a few Blues fans that would love to show their support of our new affiliate!
We’re currently fulfilling the 1st preorder. Once completed and we know what is left, the 2nd preorder will be reopened.
I'm a little worried looking back at the last few years of the San Antonio teams. Looks rough....
That’s always the problem with not owning the affiliate. But I think we’ll see less situations like what happened with Vegas going forward as most NHL teams in the West own their AHL franchises outright or are partnered with AHL teams they’re happy with. And most eastern teams that don’t own and operate an affiliate outright are close enough to their affiliates where they don’t need to.Yes, I just threw out a team. Didn’t really matter who. Just the fact that a team could simply buy the Springfield team and that’s that.
