Damn. That’s a serious contract for him. He’s very lucky to get a deal like that and not have to move to Russia to get it. Miele got a similar, albeit a bit richer, contract. But I definitely see Miele as having earned it. Fasching? Hmmm...

Dysin Mayo got a 1 year, 2 way deal.

Coyotes Sign Mayo To One-Year Contract

I really relish that contract.

That's not crazy is it? I thought high end AHL guys normally get like 200k+ on their AHL deals

Yeah, and they’ll get guaranteed amounts higher than their AHL comp, even if they don’t get the call ups. My issue is Fasching isn’t on that level. He’s a career 0.44ppg in the AHL. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not hating. I mean, good for him. But it seems a little extravagant for a player like this.

I kinda think it....sucks....

 

[Kaizen]

I really relish that contract.

Maybe he can catch up to some of the other righty d prospects.

 

[The Feckless Puck]

I really relish that contract.

I wonder if it will pass mustard with the new owner.

1 yr 2 way AHL contracts for Pedrie, Killins, and Berry. More no risk depth to allow for recalls

This was out a month ago but it's close enough to the start of camps to open a new thread for the coming season....

Tucson has signed 21-year-old F Kevin Hancock. He split last season between Owen Sound and London, and finished fourth in OHL scoring with 107 points.

Aaron Ness was noticeable in last night's game against the Ducks. I was unaware of the signing and unfamiliar with him as a player. I'm pleased to see he will be with the RR's organization for the next two years.

I believe he led the AHL in points from defense last year. Means he should look good on a NHL pre-season roster.

Terribly written recap of the pre-season opener including wrong score in the headline, but hey, everybody's rusty in training camp: The Official Website of the Tucson Roadrunners: NEWS & STATS

Highlights of the game in today's pre-season finale preview, yes, the pre-season is one back-to-back:

Roadrunners got their asterisks handed to them by Milwaukee tonight. 5-zip. Included a shortie (keeping the Coyotes tradition).

Not terrible. Allows Varady to get everyone's attention.

I think the talent level in Tucson will be good enough to compete. But, we'll see. That's why they play the games.

I don’t think the five guys just reassigned yesterday went back there so the roster’s only going to be stronger.

Yep. Pretty sure this coming Friday's lineup will be vastly different from the guys who played tonight.

Recap, including an opening sentence that disagrees with the headline for the second straight game: The Official Website of the Tucson Roadrunners: NEWS & STATS

Sounds like the Roadrunners executed the Coyotes power play design perfectly, 0 for 7. On the bright side, they'll be practicing in Tucson for the first time on Tuesday, which means the adult ice league kicks off that night!
