Hartnell would find a way to draw a 2 minute minor for excessive splashing and Mezaros would go on IR day to day with swimmers ear.

Once the novelty wears off, you will see less of them. The views from the seats are awful, so it's much better on TV. As long as they don't over do it, say 3-4 per year, it's a money maker.....and after all, that's what it's about.

The one in Philly was enough for me. My son missed it because he was sick so I guess if he wanted me to go with him I'd go to another one but otherwise I'm done. You're right. You really can't see well from about 75% of the seats.

Did you test all 100% of the seats to verify the validity of this statement?

Sorry getting ready for Feb 1.

Amazing he played 15 or so games. He was a place filler. What does it say about Adirondack that there aren't better options down there?

I put him in the same boat as Patrick Thoresen, without the puck to the jimmy.

I sat in the porch for the game, walked the perimeter of the first level, sat in the nosebleeds behind homeplate for the retiree game and along the first base line for the Phantoms.

I did my homework...

He was a better penalty killer than Rinaldo. Also much better and not taking penalties.

Rinaldo is back! Discipline should improve by leaps and bounds.

After playing in San Jose for four years, Falloon was traded November 16, 1995 to the Philadelphia Flyers in exchange for LW Martin Spanhel, a first round draft choice in the 1996 Entry Draft and a third round draft choice. (These picks were later transferred to the Phoenix Coyotes and Buffalo Sabres and used to acquire Danny Briere and Mike Martone, respectively).

Just sayin...

Not looking at anybody in specific, but isn't that just a little presumptuous (EDIT: not happy with the word selection here, but can't think of a better one)? Maybe they didn't want to take anybody more important away while the Phantoms are seeking a playoffs spot? They're six points out, but with only one less win than the eighth and ninth place teams, with game(s) in hand.

Again, I don't know their roster that well, so maybe it's just needless optimism.

This road trip should be interesting.

Over/Under for combined points for Richards and Carter Sunday is 3.5

They put him there because he's willing to skate hard, which makes him a premier PKer.

The most important thing for minor league affiliates imo is to have capable players ready to fill in at the NHL level.
