That's also a good option, occasionally.Yeah, I know that but my browser wasn't having any of it so I lazied my way out and asked you instead.

Canes, Panthers, and Hornets are all mediocre.Charlotte Checkers, probably the best professional team in NC right now.
No, Duke is.Charlotte Checkers, probably the best professional team in NC right now.
It's time to reward Kuokkanen for his strong start. Even if he were to struggle, it would be better than watching Martinook do nothing with his Top 9 minutes.
Williams, I think you meant to say Williams.
Martinook is slotted too high, but he’d be excellent on the fourth line. Other than making up infrequent celebrations, I can’t think of where I’d want Williams in the lineup.
The only reason I can see keeping Foegele is we really don't have a better option, and he's at least not a liability. As sad as that is. All of our prospects in Charlotte will likely come up and produce about the same, which is not much, and potentially less reliable defensively. I'd be willing to give Kouk a shot, though. I'm not sure they would do a swap with Foegele or not. As you can tell, I don't have much faith that we are growing future top 6 talent in Charlotte. They're all likely destined for bottom 6 roles. IMO.
It's hard to say what another one of those guys does with the chance until they get it. If it's supposed to be about earning your spot, Foegele hasn't been earning it as much recently, and it seems like some other guys in Charlotte have. If they don't cut it, and Foegele kills it in Charlotte, swap em back. Right now, I'd be more okay with him not producing if he was at least showing more of his disrupting capabilities from earlier in the year and preseason. Even if it isn't realistic for him to go balls to the wall all game, every game, I haven't even really seen him do it in spurts recently either. They probably just don't want to go from, "this guy is what a Hurricane should be" to demoting him to Charlotte.
I’d like to swap Foegele with Kuokkanen
Try this:
Ferland - Aho - Svenchnikov
Kuokkanen - Wallmark - TT
Martinook - Staal - Williams
McGinn - Bishop - PDG
Foegele looks like he's playing through a LBI, he's been really slow, which kills a guy like that's effectiveness.
Lost 5-1 to a very mediocre Belleville at home tonight. Report from my family is it was one of the worst games they've seen out of the Checkers (though not as bad as their playoff-ending game last year)...apparently we couldn't even string together 2 passes

« The team » and not « Mar teen » according to Civian et al.Checkers evidentially reaches out for clarification from Velucci. He meant to say the team supposedly.
Since Foegele seems to have lost his mojo and the Canes suck at scoring, maybe we send him down for a bit and give Kooks or Saku a shot?
foegele looks night and day different in a bad way than he did to start the season. i would be encouraged to see the team send him down to get his act together. it also wouldn't be entirely unreasonable to see them give poturalski a shot at some point.
Yeah, McLovin' has been bad lately. I would call up Kuoks
Maybe Saarela can become that third line "pain in the ass , high energy , hard to play against " - type of a player for the Canes. Irrationally , he's my favorite from all the Finns in the system.

How do they have such a great AHL team yet the call ups cant cut it but yet other teams call ups from lesser AHL teams are all good.? Asking for a friend
