Confirmed with Link: Domingue traded to Tampa Bay for Leighton, McGinn

[moosemeister]

Might want to add Duclair to that list too, which really sucks.

Totally forgot about Duke. Yes him too

 

[AZviaNJ]

Mixed emotions as I have a long-standing irrational hatred of Tye.

For what he did to Connor Murphy here? Louis making an appearance, too....as does Martinook. Didn't go well for the Pirates.

Nah that would be a rational reason . My irrational hatred is mostly reserved for everything that was the post deadline travesty that was the 14-15 Coyotes.

Also wow that looks like an absolute blast.

Why the hell did the officials let extra players from the other team on the ice? That's some bullshit. They're lucky that didn't clear both benches.

AHL uses the 3-official system. With the linesmen having to be close and ready to jump in during a fight, the lone referee is observing the fight. No one's really able to keep an eye on the benches in that case (the problem being exacerbated by Portland's arena having benches on opposite sides of the ice. Still though, even if the officials are at least keeping an eye on the bench, if a player really wants to leave the bench to join a fight, it's hard to stop him.

Ah, at the very least hopefully the players who left the bench got in some serious serious trouble, along with the coach. That could've gotten way worse.

In the NHL, the first to leave the bench during an altercation incurs an automatic 10-game suspension. It's probably the same/similar in the AHL.

Nothing for the coach or organization? It doesn't seem to happen often at the NHL level so I guess it works as is.

I don't know the rest of the specifics. I'd imagine there's a fine for the coach or organization involved too. The second player to leave the bench also gets an automatic 5-game suspension. Plus there's the whole part where starting a second (or third, or further) fight when there's one already going on is supposedly an automatic game misconduct. Theoretically that would mean a bench-clearing brawl ends the game by default, and the entire roster of both teams gets suspended for one game. In practice, the NHL defines most of what goes on between the players who leave the bench as not "fights" so they don't get the game misconduct. In practice it's true, most of those who get off the bench past the first few just grab a guy and there's maybe a little pushing and shoving, but that's it.

Interesting thanks.

Sounds like a donnybrook took place.

This deal is great. It only costs Tampa money, and we can use Tye in Tucson while we dump the one-way contract. Domingue was done here. Hope he sorts his stuff out and shows some of his early form.

On the one hand, that does sound like Chayka/Barroway. The kid may make great trades but he has zero idea how to treat people.

On the other, Louis seems to have a penchant for whining a lot.

 

[RemoAZ]

Just not smart when you have a roster full of young players. We have an inexperienced GM, Coach and Owner. They need to bring someone into management that has a better idea how to run a professional sports organization.

There were already 3 goalies in Tucson. You need to act like an idiot to be told to go home like that. Teams have a right to tell you go home, I don't see how that's shocking.

 

[Mosby]

I hope the Lightning hire Patrick Roy.

 

[offkilter]

Domingue was and is a whiny headcase. He's always been that way going back to his Portland and Springfield AHL days. I'm surprised the organisation took this long to figure it out and jettison him. Honestly I think his days of playing pro in north america are done. Don't be surprised to see him in Europe or the KHL next year.

 

[Mosby]

Maybe send Leighton to Vegas for free?

 

[The Feckless Puck]

Lord knows they could use a goalie right now.

 

[crazyhockeylover96]

So McGinn is in Tucson but where is Leighton? He's not listed on either roster.

 

[TheLegend]

Funny we're headed to Toronto.

Louie went up against the Marlies tonight in Toronto. Lost 2-1. Stopped 25 of 27 shots.

 

[Mosby]

Leighton was listed as a healthy scratch with the Coyotes today. Don’t think he’s actually with the team though.

Maybe they just loan him to an AHL team needing a goalie. Or deal him for a conditional 7th.

You, like the rest of us have no idea how Chayka treats people. Maybe if LD played like he was suppose to, he wouldn't be having that conversation with Chayka in the first place.

Believe half of what you read and all what you see.

Exactly. LD had his chance and blew it big time.

I agree. He had a golden opportunity and blew it big time. He is not a NHL goalie. HBK hit the nail on the head as he questioned LD capabilities long ago.

Sweet deal for him. No expectation to play, gets to collect an NHL salary.
