Darian Dzuirzynski suspended by AHL for 3 gms for actions vs. MCH yesterday.
Shinnimin out with a separated shoulder due that fight.I watched Dzuirzynskis fights and he is terrible. Its to bad Shinnin got punched out. Didn't even look like he wanted to fight.
LEWISTON – The Portland Pirates affiliation agreement with the Phoenix Coyotes is set to expire following the end of the regular season, but both parties are sounding confident that a new agreement is within reach.
AHL team:
Werek - RFA, he's gone. In fact he really owes the Coyotes money back
Kennedy - UFA, he's gone.
Hextall - UFA, he's gone.
Yip - UFA, he's gone.
Maybes:
Fairchild - UFA
Brodeur - RFA
Weller - RFA
Miele - UFA, I'd like to bring him back strictly to make AHL better
There are rumors that a Team from Switzerland is interested in Mieles services.
Can someone give me some insights about him? The stats look quite nice.
which team in switzerland? I think he will fit in well in CH, I honeslty havent seen him play more than a handful of times, but the skill is there for sure. Im actually really familiar with swiss hockey, i lived in zentral schwiiz for 8 years and my wife is swiss
Miele has all the skill in the world. He's just too weak to play in the NHL- he gets pushed around and loses puck battles. I suspect he would look great in the Swiss league. But another team might be willing to give him a more prolonged look in the show.
thanks! how about his skating?
