Recalled/Assigned: Lauridsen and Manning reassigned to AHL Jan. 21; recalled 1/19

[Harold Bingo]

Good for them. Hope they don't look too out their element.

 

[Schwarbomb]

How many 7th round picks make the NHL?

[BillDineen]

Scary. Having said that, I bet these two look better than some of the turds on this D have lately.

 

[BleedOrange]

I dont mind the callups it is what it is ..

 

[AFTeRMaTH*]

Awesome! Doing all we can to get Hanifin or Marner I see....

[Broad Street Elite]

Well, I guess we'll see what we see here. Marner, here we come.

 

[chupanibre]

whatever, seasons over

 

[GingerFetish]

Maybe Lauridsen can stir things up with the Pens.

 

[GKJ]

I thought Lauridsen was at least Ok the last time he came up and played for us, granted expectations were quite low.

He actually did better than I thought in that stint as well. Scored a couple goals, although one of the was that hilarious own-goal by the Bruins

 

[Richi]

Yeah, Lauridsen's back. Hope he sticks around until the end of this (!) season

 

[BernieParent]

Dear Philadelphia Ducks: please just add a '1' in front of my predicted goal total for the Penguins. Thanks.

 

[BernieParent]

This is for FrankM95149's request in the Islanders GDT that I didn't finish before it was locked:

yeah...

 

[Schwarbomb]

Not a great moment for Dane. Got his head clobbered three times before he knew what was happening.

Got to give credit to Kaleta there. He knew that he had to just start unloading on Lauridsen and then to just keep it up until he got the TKO. If Lauridsen's able to get free at any point during that fight and land a punch then it ends differently.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Getting your *** kicked by Kaleta is a banable offense. I remember Coatsey trying to sugarcoat that one.

 

[Rebels57]

He actually was. That's the thing.

Yeah, there's no sugar-coating losing to a guy half a foot shorter than you. You'd think with the reach advantage he'd at least be able to keep Kaleta from getting anywhere near his head.

They're both not great fighters but Lauridsen's size & reach should have at least saved him from getting a beating like that.

 

[blinds]

Our defense this season...

Perfect, especially how it starts on fire.

 

[Vandalay Industries]

Lauridsen isn't even a good AHL defenseman at this point. This will be ugly if he gets more than 5 minutes tomorrow night.

Well, Lauridsen is +13 for the last 13 games in the AHL. That puts your statement a little bit in jeopardy.

He might not be your favourite, and might not be a good NHL player, but he obviously does well enough to be a good AHL defender AT HIS POINT.

 

[Flyotes]

Lauridsen will make the most of this showing. He will dominate Pittsburgh and sit on Crosby at least once. GREAT PAIN DANE.

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

As expected, both players have been returned to the Phantoms (AHL).

 

[sharpeye97]

As expected, both players have been returned to the Phantoms (AHL).

Only because Phantoms have 3 games over the NHL All Star break. Idiotic to keep them up for a break while they can play games. Manning will probably be recalled after the break.

ya, about that...
