1+1 for Walfridsson in a 3-1 win.
nah. that’s Elvenes, our guy had the shot that you couldn’t seeIs our kid the one with the sick hands that made a nice toe drag at the beginning?
Their ranking is.... um... interesting to say the least. Gersich and Hobbs should definitely be on the list, Gersich ~#5, if not higher. Also I'd have Clark and Fehervary ahead of Riat and Vanacek.In the good news bad news department:
Bad news the Caps farm system (#29) isn't the best due to lack forward depth.
Good news the Pens farm system (#31) is worse.

Hershey just sent out a tweet indicating there will be an announcement on Monday. Could just be a promotional schedule release or could be a player announcement
The announcement was about the SC being in Hershey, but there is a few ex Bears that haven't found a home yet. Wayne Simpson, Tim Kennedy, Zach Sill, and Garrett Mitchell are a few of the names that are UFAs that played in the AHL. Other notable UFAs in Eurpope include Alex Giroux, Ryan Potulny, Jacob Micflikier and Kris Newbury (doubt any of these guys get signed by Hershey)are there any former bears still out there to be signed?
I'd doubt it. He did play last season in Asia. I'd assume that he did that only to "prove" to teams that he could still play after taking two full seasons off. He'll be a good addition to the room to help the young guys transition and learn to become better pros and he probably was told and accepted the fact that he won't play every night.Pyett seems low-risk, moderate or higher-reward for the Bears. I wonder if he'll start in SC to get his legs back.
He's had 12 fights over the last four years. It's not like he's a real huge fighter anymore. Plus, he was god awful last year and a waste of a roster spacePeluso can punch faces, thus why he keeps getting two-way deals.
Not a big loss in the system. Only notable thing he's done since signing is make sports center top 10 plays. Lot of young guys in Hershey already this year so I'd expect some of them to end up in the ECHL where McGauley was.
