Nice to see him rewarded. Go figure Burke calls up the smaller, more skilled Granlund instead of Knight or Reinhart.

No, I bet he's showcasing him. Another team might be interested in him.

Excited to see him play! Hopefully he won't just automatically be scratched.

To be honest nothing Burke does would surprise me anymore.

 

[Beats By CoRD]

Awesome!! How has he been doing in Abby?

 

[MarkGio]

Great news. Hopefully he gets some ice time

Awesome!! How has he been doing in Abby?

Very well 24 points in 29 games (has been pointless since put with Sven but has been an offensive catalyst)

Abbs Heat said he hasn't been as physical in the Ahl as he was in Europe but he is certainly not a soft player. He could really help our 2nd pp unit.

Granlund was with Olson and Reinhart yesterday

 

[Unlimited Chequing]

This is awesome. I'm excited for the kid.

 

[InfinityIggy]

Awesome!

Im actually unreasonably excited to see him called up

 

[Johnny Hoxville]

AH, I do expect you to promptly go over to the crow thread, as you said he would not play in the NHL this season.

I'm actually super excited to see this kid play, he seems to be the type of player that elevates his game when he plays with higher skilled players. Hopefully, he can provide a little truculence as well.

At this point of the season its the little things that matter haha.

Lets wait and see if he actually plays

If he doesn't play today I can see him being demoted prior to ever playing a game. And I am honestly surprised he was recalled, I think he will be over matched physically. I think Knight would have been a much better candidate to be recalled. But my opinion doesn't mean much

Now´s your chance. I heard a rumor they were looking for a new GM...

I am surprised too but nonetheless very excited to see him hopefully play. I would've thought that Knight or Hanowski would of got the call before Granlund.

I would personally pair him with Cammy and Galliardi or Jones.

 

[Pirate King Luffy]

Markus Granbust.

 

[YMCMBYOLO]

I will go to the crow thread as I said wrong data. I "had inside sources" saying that Knight would be recalled next and I was wrong!

 

[Taranis]

To be fair, it's pretty odd that Knight hasn't been called up as of yet.

 

[Lunatik]

To be fair, it's pretty odd that Knight hasn't been called up as of yet.

His play has tailed off a bit the last month or so, but to be fair to the likes of him, Hanowski and Jooris they are a handful of games away from playing the same they did in a full college season. I think it would be smart to let them rest for a game or two when we get some healthy bodies back. Conditioning is a huge thing for guys coming out of college since they aren't used to seeing more than 40-50 games in a season.

markus granbust.

!too soon!

 

[HighLifeMan]

I really wish he was in tonight in place of Galiardi..
