Has Melchiori played in the NHL before?
No. He was recalled last year and earlier this year for brief periods, but has yet to dress for a game.
Does Ellerby have a minor injury that makes him day-to-day?
I thought his play was better than decent, and I can't see why he stays out.
The trade freeze will be lifted soon. Maybe we're trading Stu? Probably just wishful thinking
Didn't think about that one, maybe they have made a trade and can't announce it until tomorrow? One can hope right?
I must be missing something. Why call up a 8th Dman?
Enstrom/Bogo, Pardy/Buff, Stu/Trouba. Ellerby in the press box.

Pretty sure the trade freeze is lifted Friday night at midnight.
Has Melchiori played in the NHL before?
from the CBA - Dec 28th @ 12:01am local time. Would be after the Wild game.
Weird they would call Melchiori up before Redmond.
1 shoots left the other shoots right.
Maybe that's it.
Redmond is more skilled, more experienced, and bigger.
There's got to be something else in the equation.
