[Mr. Canucklehead]

Sbisa was still absent from practice today and now Bieksa, as well. Guessing they might not be good to go for Friday.

IIRC, the comments in the Utica thread regarding Sanguinetti's play thus far have been quite positive.

 

[Baby Pettersson]

Is another Dman injured?

 

[PhilMick]

What a wonderful name for a call up.

Deserved this. Maybe significant that it wasn't Corrado

Dropping like flies

orcatown has consistently called him Utica's best D-man, and it seems like Green agrees with that assessment though I think Biega deserves some consideration too. Hope he does well. Looks like Hamhuis-Weber on the 2nd pairing?

More than a little scary

So here's a question...

Does he have to clear waivers to be sent back down?

i.e. is this essentially a free showcase for the kid. with how well he's put up points on a 1st place Utica team.. i'm sure he's been noticed by a few scouts out there...

Doesn't have to clear waivers. Same situation as Defazio.

Because he's already cleared waivers this year, he's fine as long as his stint on our roster isn't an extended one (I believe it's 10 games or 30 days).

1st rounder on the third pairing! Such depth!

 

[Ernie]

Can someone explain how he scored 50 points in 60 games in the AHL in 2011-2012?

Did he get switched to forward?

You'd think that someone would have put a player with elite AHL numbers somewhere on their roster.

Strangely enough I'm interested to see how that D-corps does, especially if they shelter that 3rd pairing defensively - which they may or may not need to do depending how good Sanguinetti is.

 

[M2Beezy]

No corrado? Thats to shatter his confidense thats to bad but for canucks hope this guy suprises and does good

 

[monster_bertuzzi]

I kinda remember when Saguinetti was being mentioned as a top prospect before the 2006 draft.

Marc-Andre Gragnani scored 60 in 63 in 2010-11

Didn't work very well for us, did it...

I guess we'll find out first hand what his shortcomings are soon enough. I just hope he can skate.

For all the mistakes Sbisa makes, he ends up highly reducing the risks he creates with his speed

You are right! 10 games or 30 days on roster since last clear.

1) Season Waiver Exemption

He does have to clear waivers in a season.

Bobby Sanguinetti's waiver exemption of 4 year(s) and 143 career NHL regular season and playoff game(s) has ended. He has been credited with 6 year(s) and 45 career game(s). Please see notes above for scenarios where the player could be waiver exempt, such as if he already cleared waivers during the 2014-15 season.

2) Situational Waiver Exemption

Is he exempt as an emergency recall, previous exposure, or conditional assignment?

YES! He was previously exposed as he was exposed to waivers on September 27, 2014. So, he is fine unless/until he gets 10 or more games or 30 or more days on the NHL roster (do not believe it has to be consecutive).

Yes and it will be interesting to see how Andersson does without him.

He wasn't forward in Brampton (with Hodgson and Duchene) either when he scored 29 goals and 70 points in 61 games Those 2011-12 Charlotte stats were solid, because Checkers had few offensive players with him. He had been good offensive defenseman in AHL his whole career, but i don't still waiting success in NHL. Hope that i'm wrong with that and he fits Willie's system better than Tortorella/Muller.

 

[Jay Cee]

Ouch. Our lack of depth on D is really going to hurt us soon if we can't address it.

And Etti being Old Persian for "star". Or Italian for 'good with bolognese'.

He set an AHL record at the skating competition.

 

[Caspian]

I have a feeling Sanguinetti is going to surprise people.

 

[Orca Smash]

Willie said they expect bieksa to be around tomorrow, for what its worth, sounded more like he was sick or something to me.
