In the past the only way someone could be called up from junior was for emergency injury. It's how giguere got his 3 starts for the whalers. Sent right back after someone gets healthy.

For this to work, either someone is going on IR or we just completed a trade.

Gleason was already on IR to make room for Jordan.

Perhaps Pitkanen tried to practice today and couldn't?

They must be calling him up to play winger to take Skinner's place :sarcasm:

Not sure how they can claim injury unless Michal Jordan is going back and Pitkanen really won't play. Seems odd.

Yeah, with Pitkanen unable to play, we still have 6 able-bodied "defensemen" up with the team.


Harrison-Faulk
Corvo-McBain
Jordan-Sanguinetti


So either one of those players is hurt/sick, or something's going on that I don't know of. As it is, only Cody McCormick was on waivers today.

Reading PPP article on waivers, and they hint about a minimum time on IR before you can do an emergency callup.

Obvious question: is there a minimum time on IR before you can perform an emergency callup?

If that's the case, then they probably just want to see how Murphy handles the NHL.

Looking forward to seeing the brilliant defensive work of Corvo, Sanguinetti, Jordan and Murphy.

Gleason is on IR? During the habs game the nhl network announced Pitkanen was on IR.

Yes, he was put on IR to free up a roster spot for Nash ..retroactive. I'm sure they did the same with Pitkanen to bring Welsh up..again retroactive to the NJ game. Both should be eligible to come off though since it was retroactive.

What has been said above is correct. They were both placed on IR on Monday retroactive to the game against NJ after which both started missing time with injuries in order to have roster space for Nash/Welsh once we figured out about the injuries up front. They are both eligible to return as soon as tomorrow, but it's not likely that either one will. Pitkanen's closer to returning, but he's still not a guarantee.

Put Murphy out there against Olli Jokinen and Evander Kane.

Baptism by fire, Hurricanes style! Bring him down only if he is a minus 8 or worse!! :yo:

Canes will also officially announce soon that Jeff Skinner has sustained a concussion and obviously will not play tomorrow. #indefinate
