Recalled/Assigned: Schroeder or Ebbett (UPD: Canucks recall Schroeder from Chicago - Jan 22)

Well it would only be a waiver wire move to protect everybody...And the back shortly could easily mean having Schroeder in the starting line up on Saturday.

They still have to get around the roster limit which means in order to bring Schroeder back up one of two things would have to happen; either someone would have to get waived and demoted to clear a spot or someone would have to get injured enough to be put on IR which would also open up a roster spot.

Waiving today is more likely to hurt a team than waiving someone after rosters are mostly set.

Honestly if he does this just don't draft players anymore.

At some point you have to reward your prospects for their accomplishment. If you're playing Ebbett who clearly was outplayed just for the sake of waiver wire's etc, then that's just unfair.

Pretty sure Gillis is talking exactly about what you are saying...rewarding Schroeder. Now that reward may have to come a day or two later based on contract and waiver situations. i didn't get the impression from Gillis that be back soon meant sometime this season. It seemed to me it was "don't bother checking out of your hotel Jordan" soon.

Unreal.

"Young Players? LOLZ"

Wasn't there a stipulation that Schroeder has to actually fly to Chicago? Or at least have a plane ticket?

Oh well, I'm expecting to see him on the roster soon, so I'm not terribly worried.

I'm not going to swear, but I am going to KICK THIS DOGHOUSE DOWN!

Coach V really loves his useless D men in his back pocket.

 

[Tiranis]

At this point the more interesting information is whether this is a mere formality or if he's actually headed to Chicago. They sent down a bunch of guys last season (Tanev, Hodgson) that they still had on the team to start the season.

Shredder will be back soon, Gillis said as much on the radio today. It probably just has more to do with Gilman massaging the cap then preferring Shredder over Ebby.

If Ebbett is seriously going to center our second line then this team is ****ed.

I don't think there is any way that he's back for opening night, regardless.

 

[mrmyheadhurts]

This is simply roster/cap management, not some AV conspiracy to quash young talent. I still don't understand that position given AV's excellent history of developing our young players.

Yup, but it's still relevant. Even if it's for the 2nd game. (And the trade option is still a possibility.) I'm sure there's a reason they kept him up this long... otherwise he could've just gone back to play a game in Chicago.

Sounds like this is what they will go with for the first 2 games. Then decide if they want to re-adjust going forward. (AV on 1040)

Yup. He'll be back,

 

[racerjoe]

Coach V basically saying he will be back up after the weekend.

I think I just burst a blood vessel somewhere in my head. I'm going to flip every table in this damn building.

 

[keslerburrows]

I'm mad. I hope this is just temporary and that he will be back up in a matter of days once Booth and Kesler are on the IR.

But I doubt it

It really wasn't that long ago, but it feels much longer.

 

[Tiranis]

Sure sounded like it. Said they're going to try to make some moves after the first 2 games and that 9 defensemen is not an ideal situation.

 

[Grub]

Ah screw it. Mike don't even bother drafting. Just stop drafting. What's the point of drafting when non of your prospects are allowed to play.

Frankly Schroeder outplayed Kassian. Kassian should have been the one sent down if we based this on performance but no, since Kassian was traded for Hodgson Mike has to safe face.

At some point performance needs to be rewarded.
