Helm and Djoos listed as Non-Roster? Does that mean they are being sent to AHL? If so, doesn't that mean Djoos gets sent back to Anaheim?

Or are they just injured?

 

[Preposterone]

Interesting, Lindstrom makes the taxi squad over Hicketts

 

[Hammettf2b]

Helm and Djoos???

 

[golffuul]

Helm and Djoos???

I'm guessing they get some kind of exemption for quarantining Djoos and Helm is just injured. Especially when the two are lumped in with McIsaac who is DEFINITELY injured.

Excuse me...they are "unfit to play"....lol

Hicketts is never going to be an NHL level player. Lindstrom has shown that he can at least play a safe reliable game at this level.

Capfriendy has Hem listed as IR.

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

Helm on IR, Brome on the 23 man roster. Ryan still on the roster so his must not be as serious as Helms.

Djoos would have to clear waivers again before being assigned to the taxi squad.

That roster is about as boring as it gets. Not even any young guys to pull for outside of Zadina.

I look forward to changing the channel every time the bottom six is on the ice

I dont think they need to put him on waivers, Wings still have an open spot that I assume he will slide right into. It wont be until Helm comes back that they will need to waive someone.

You must have forgotten last years opening night roster lol.

Assuming when Djoos gets out of quarantine and Helm is healthy that Biega is sent down and that’s the final 23 as they are only at 22 right now. Thought and hoped svech would be on taxi squad tho.

Does anyone know if you can just play taxi squad players over regulars for instance can wings just have rass in over a Nielsen or Erne even if those 2 are healthy?

I believe the answer is no.

Players on taxi squads can be put on the active roster as late as 5 p.m. ET on a a game day, giving clubs a better chance to having four lines, three defensive pairings and two goaltenders even if rosters take a hit because of COVID-19 protocols. The player on the active roster would have to be out due to injury.

 

[Ghost of Ethan Hunt]

So Djoos & Helm make 23 when Biega is sent to taxi & replaces a G.

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

Djoos would have to clear waivers again before being assigned to the taxi squad.

Djoos is still on the roster, But listed as a non roster player. probably due to Covid quarantine protocol.

Seems weird to have Ras and Smith on the taxi squad and not playing games. Probably more to come

My guess is that they are there until the AHL gets going. Just keeping them close by so they can get practice time with the big club, instead of going into “stasis” waiting for the AHL to start its training camp

My guess is SY has 10 more months to start incorporating substantially better players throughout the roster before guys start looking for exits.

The compressed NHL schedule is going to be quite busy(almost every other day). I think they will have plenty of opportunity to get playing time in the NHL especially with injuries forthcoming.

 

[lucaseider]

Oh man, that d-core is gonna have me drinking SO hard this season, probably lots of weeping too.

 

[Gniwder]

or waived. Basically roster limits still apply, they could easily put Nielsen on the taxi squad and Raz on active any time they want because nobody is going to claim Nielsen, and Raz is exempt. Same with Erne and Biega.

Funny thing is that it's a huge improvement over last season. Pretty sad.

That would also explain why they kept an even number of goalies.... practice.
