The team is allowed to make other moves lol.

Ofc but these moves can be done another day can we for once get excited?

 

[Chaos2k7]

Actually quality AHL guys get snapped up very quickly as well, nice to jump in but we also need help on the big club...

Doesn't seem like Chicago is in any rush to move Sharp and the longer they hold onto him the less leverage they have in trade talks. I would imagine Tallon is filling out the roster and waiting until Chicago backs down from their crazy initial asking price.

Depends on the individual. I'm excited.

 

[EnforceTheLaus]

Good depth. Harper had 32g last year so >>> Butler.

For AHL depth? Iknow i come of as a pessimist but can you enlighten me what excits you?

Two more AHL d-men, wasn't really worth another thread.

 

[JP Mick]

Haha....

McKenna is a huge catch for the organization.... He'll be in FLA sooner than later I think. He'll be great with the younger goaltenders in the system, but he's a real option to backup Lou if Montoya falters or injury.

The Panthers have also been busy raiding one team from Chicago... It just happen to be the AHL Wolves. Harper and Regner are legit signings for the AHL and gives the organization high-character players and real depth. They're going to force the younger players to step it up if they want to play in Florida.

I'll have more as soon as I speak with Joyce.

Thanks for the insight.

I think McKenna got 2 years to prevent teams from claiming him on waivers during the first year.

 

[LUUUUUIS]

It's important to surround our young players in the AHL with quality to foster a winning culture. Lighten' up, guys.

 

[SoupyFIN]

If we get one more depth signing, it won't fit the title.

 

[Bouma Fett*]

Acolatse is a good catch. Don't really see NHL upside in him, but he was a solid, stabilizing presence on the Adirondack Flames last season. He will be a decent AHL presence for you guys
