I agree. It would be sweet to get Suzuki if they end up making the playoffs. But the answer will come by Monday's 3PM trade deadline. Because if a player isn't technically on the AHL roster by the TDL, that player will not be eligible to play in the AHL playoffs should the team qualify.
They'd need to send Suzuki down by then. And it would only be a paper transaction. He wouldn't physically need to be down there or play. It would only be a technicality to make him eligible for the playoffs.
Selfishly, I want that to happen. But I don't think they will. When you consider he played a full season of junior last year, plus going all the way to win the OHL Championship and then again play at the Memorial Cup, take some time off and then come back for camp and playing this full season. Management may prefer to give him some rest because he's played a lot of hockey the past two years.
