Prospect Info: Albany Devils and ECHL Affiliates Thread Pt. 3

no worries! in summary i just feel a 21 year old prospect deserves to play over burlon (24) or mcpherson (26) or even harrold (30 something) but in reality harrold whos on a one way is not going to be a healthy scratch and make 800 g's in the pressbox in the A...maybe trade harrold ?

harrold was waived. anyone could have had him for free. i dont think anyone wants him

Absolutely makes sense...That is why I don't like Myles Bell starting in the ECHL

I'm sure the three of them won't be back with the team next year. I'm pretty certain that a trade will happen once the injury list in either league gets populated.

a whole year for scarlett to wait is a long time...dont we also have someone else in albany on D ?

Injuries will happen to either the big club or albany or both. He'll get time

[The 29th Pick]

anybody know anything about Paul Thompson? is he a career AHLer ?

 

[NJDevs26]

I guess Lou can't resist logjams in the minors too lol

I'm wondering if it might mean that Helgeson might be called up soon.

I'm wondering if it might mean that Helgeson might be called up soon.

Why would it mean that?

 

[Hockey Sports Fan]

Fraser's on an AHL-only deal, so this might not have much to do with Lou. But it could also be/is probably one of those Lou-esque "giving an ex-Devils a break" type of signings. Gotta suck for Fraser going from a top-4 defenseman that Carlyle loved in Toronto to not being able to find an AHL job.

It's curious he'd get signed with all the D available to Albany, but I'm not sure this has much to do with anyone getting called up soon. It's not like there wasn't already a waiting-list for playing time at both levels.

Him or Helgeson, probably depending on who's injured.

 

[Marshal Rochambeau]

Has Helgeson earned a call up?

 

[kevinchoi]

in my opinion . no he has not...itll be harrold over him then hbraberenkov (sp?)
Then maybe him or kelly depending whos playing better. hell wouldnt surprise me if they gave fraser an nhl deal eventually then hed be another option.

yeah, if Sal went down I could see them calling up Helg, but if any other of our D went down I guess Harrold would be up

Hrabarenka lol

I had a good laugh at your version of his name though. Reminds me of when people tried to spell Pikkarainen's name

 

[JimEIV]

The fact that Hegleson was a last cut here tells you the organization is looking for him to eventually to take on a physical bottom pairing role.

haha i was in a rush at work leaving the office. i work for the state and i am in albany alot with my new position and ive been fortunate enough to catch a few games (terrible attendance btw) going from new jersey to albany is something else but decent rink for albany too bad they cant draw fans

AHL roster is full, let Bell dominate the ECHL and earn a call-up like Kelly Zajac did. Nothing wrong with that.

He just put up 11 shots in a game this past weekend, along with two goals and an assist. He had 1 shot and no points in the game after that, though.

 

[NJDevs26]

I just thought Bell was going down to the ECHL for conditioning cause he missed all of camp. If he's really down there maybe that was the reason why it was such a long holdout, because they wanted to send him there and he wanted to play in the AHL?

Kelly Zajac's not a guy that should ever be playing in the NHL, Bell's still young enough with tools enough to dream of that someday. But future NHL players don't usually start in the ECHL unless they're goons.
