[Harry Kakalovich]

do the sens still retain his rights? when do they need to sign him by?

 

[Ouroboros]

He needs to be signed by June 1st, 2017.

 

[Harry Kakalovich]

He needs to be signed by June 1st, 2017.

Thanks!

 

[operasen]

He needs to be signed by June 1st, 2017.

I'd hope that gets done this year. If he's serious about an NHL career, I'd think he would agree.

 

[Hutz]

He needs to be signed by June 1st, 2017.

Yikes... that's sooner than I'd like.

 

[Super Cake]

So how is Hogberg doing?

Are the Sens going to sign him before June 1st, 2017?

1.89 GAA and a .932 SV%. One of the top goalies in the SHL.

 

[DJB]

Hogberg called up.

I think this is merely to backup tonight and to ensure Andy doesn't play. I dont think this is an injury to Anderson

Weird... when do teams ever call somebody up to ensure the starter can get a day off?

 

[Micklebot]

Here's link for the callup, might be an issue with Anderson

 

[Clayonator]

Give him the damn start.

Well looks like it is an injury.

Probably couldn't have come at a better time really.

 

[Tnuoc Alucard]

Give him the damn start.

After Just 28 career AHL games, sure why not start him vs the Stanley Cup Champs, in the second game of a back to back ............ what could go wrong?

 

[BonHoonLayneCornell]

Give him the damn start.

Eh. Let Mckenna get shelled for 8 or 9 tonight.

 

[Micklebot]

He's also got around 100 starts in a similar level league (SHL).

Vasilevskiy played 37 career AHL games, but had his first start long before reaching that total. Andersen only had around 50 career starts in the AHL before getting NHL starts, Lundqvist never played a game in the AHL.

It's a bit different when looking at goalies trained in Europe, they might need time to adapt to the rink size and style of play, but a specific number of AHL games before giving them an NHL start is just plain nonsense. If you want to argue he's not ready, fine, but do so based on his level of play, not by looking up a box score and stopping at games played of all things...

In any case, if it is Mckenna or Hogberg starting... What could go right?

What could go wrong? Mike McKenna.

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

Mann's message was cut off ... add "of the drama" and we're good.

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

Hogberg called up again. Could be a clue that Anderson isn't ready to go

 

[OD99]

Interesting...maybe he isn't sick and was injured against the Devils.

Speedy recovery but would be good for The Hog to get a game in the NHL just for the experience.

 

[CTC]

Anderson with a concussion.

 

[Clayonator]

Could have felt flu like symptoms that were later attributed to concussion.

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

It was later tweeted out that day as an upper body injury. I don't get why they don't just say what it is. Clearly if its a concussion , he needs to clear the protocol. It could have been nausea due to a concussion earlier I suppose.

 

[God Says No]

I hope this guy gets in a game. He looked good against the Marlies last night.

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

According to Boucher .. he'll get a game on the weekend as of now.
