By that logic it would never be possible to invoke that emergency call-up clause. There is never a time when they can't find 7 warm bodies. It must be based on a number of injuries rather than the number left or use the 7 that started the season or something like that. TBH I wouldn't want to bring Morrissey in under these conditions

It's not supposed to be easy to recall a player from the CHL. It's meant for true emergencies. The way it's written the recall has to occur when your compliment of D man falls below 6. And you have to do it twice from the AHL first before a CHL callup is allowed. The fact that most teams carry 7 or 8 d most of the time is why it's so rare.

I love how these day to day's keep changing to month+ injuries. Never trusting Paul Maurice's updates on injuries again. :p:

Y'all closed the tank thread too early. Jets went into the season, woefully shallow on D and now its come back to haunt them. The sky is falling, they are done.

Any team (even the best teams in the league) that loses 3 of their 4 top D for at least a month each are going to be haunted.

Its normal to lose 3 or 4 D long term during a season, but yes I would agree that losing your 3 best is unusually bad luck.

Still have to play the games. Personally, I'll wait for that to happen before throwing in the towel.

Too late in the game to hope for the tank to return?

If we had about 8-10 less points, this would be a perfect soft tank scenario.

We are all men, grown men who can share their emotions

I feel like crying on Paul Maurice's shoulder. And he would say 'there there, Rob Brind'amour once told me that it's always darkest before the dawn'.

I don't know how we're going to win with that D line up. No offense to any one individual, but as a group they leave a lot to be desired.

Maurice would make a terrible doctor.

Disembodied head: "How bad is it doc?"
Dr. Maurice: "Day to day."
Disembodied head: "But my head was severed by a machete!"
Dr. Maurice: "It's not as bad as it looks."
Disembodied head: "I can't feel my toes..."
Dr. Maurice: "We'll list you as probable for tonight's game. We can just mount your head on a toboggan and slide you out onto the ice."

Would be good at blocking shots
