Recalled/Assigned: Nathan Lieuwen (Assigned 11/23)

[ZeroPT*]

Well they've already seen him play against NHL teams, right, how much more information is getting one start this weekend going to provide? If you're advocating giving Lieuwen regular time I guess I could be sold on that idea but his AHL track record this year isn't exactly indicative of a player who's on track to becoming a regular contributor.



With the team and doing some on-ice activities (I think?) but not cleared yet.

I'd like to see more.

@BillHoppeNHL: Nathan Lieuwen is here ... not sure if he helicoptered in or what, but he's here.

Yeah, I was going to ask about the feasibility of getting to Buffalo; e.g., what route did he take and how long did it take... nearly three hours, oy.

Taken from the article on BuffaloNews.com announcing the postponement of Fridays Rangers game -

Coach Ted Nolan announced that Jhonas Enroth would play both games this weekend, the now-postponed game and Saturday's contest in Washington.
Enroth talked about how excited he was to match up against fellow countryman Henrik Lundqvist in goal when the Rangers hit town.
Nathan Lieuwen arrived from Rochester, driving West on Route 104 because of the Thruway being closed. Saids it took him a good 2 hours and 45 minutes to get here.
Lieuwen on getting to Buffalo from Rochester - Certainly learned some new roads on the way here. #BuffaloSnow
