Whats up with Steen going to Allsvenskan and not back to the SHL?

Whats up with Steen going to Allsvenskan and not back to the SHL?

Just a guess,SHL probably didn't want him to leave in Mid November vs the Allsvenskan team is probably thrilled with the help for however he's there

Poor Gaunce. Divver misspelled his first name and Porter called him Cameron. I guess that says all you need to know

Apparently in August Providence signed this guy

Fare thee well, Big Sherm. Fare thee well.

Derek Sheppard is a former 4-year Canadian university player, I love me a good ol ham and egger that knows he’s got nothing to lose. Straight out of central casting for this era’s sociopath “Rinaldo” looking goon

Sheppard is actually a pretty good source of entertaining some nights. I’ve watched quite a bit of him.

He knows how to celebrate and throw hands. I’m sold. Who do you think he’s replacing, if anyone?

Just depth I assume. Anticipating a lot of fluctuation in Providence this year and if some prospects are trade or kept overseas, they’ll need him. Plus, Sherman isn’t getting an offer so he’ll be nice to have around for depth.

one way deal with Zboril
McKegg will be a decent tweener like Paul Carey
Booth? Your guess is as good as mine,have to assume they've found an ECHL team to take Providence's leftovers

 

[Dr Hook]

Hard to hate the Zboril signing even though it seems likely he is destined for the big club here. Is he still waiver eligible or does he have another year. But two years for a guy that we think is going to get regular NHL minutes at 725k is a great bargain. The other two, meh. Whatever, PBruins need bodies too and I imagine we see neither of them in Boston unless there is a major injury crisis.

Zboril needs waivers,has a nice cheap contract and was very good last year, pencil him in the Boston roster for now

Yes if he is not waiver exempt then I think it's fair that he is slotted to take on of the LD slots with Gryz and Lauzon. I am kind of stoked to see him get time to be honest.

Holy moly. He destroyed that guy. Picked him up and destroyed him again

So does Keyser get loaned out again ?

Assuming healthy he's got to play somewhere, They need to get him going again,it's possible that he's Vladar's backup to start and they loan Swayman out, who knows

And Keyser/Swayman can be loaned to an ECHL team that isn’t Atlanta? (Since they’re out this season).

I think so
