Couple of things worth getting to on a Thursday evening…
–> Bombulie’s practice update didn’t have a ton of great news in it. Alex Picard is out “for a while” with an upper body injury after blocking a shot late in the third period when Norfolk was on a power play.
–> Jonathan also made mention of these stats he mined which he put out on Twitter early this morning:
–> Elsewhere in the AHL East Division, a familiar face to Penguin fans is on waivers. Click this link, but if you don’t want to, his name rhymes with Mancrew Dorjon. Still clueless? Just click the link. If no one claims him, he’ll be in town Saturday.
–> Vote here for the starters for the AHL All-Star Classic later this month. If you want a guide as to who to vote for, look no further:
| East |
West |
| Colin McDonald, WBS |
Krys Kolanos, ABB |
| Simon Despres, WBS |
Ryan Ellis, MIL |
| Jeff Zatkoff, MCH |
Cedrick Desjardins, HAM |
–> Finally, for you Dan Henningson fans out there, he is on the way back up to the AHL again. This time with the Rockford IceHogs.
Gameday for tomorrows tilt with the Rochester Americans will be up at its normal 3 pm slot on the blog tomorrow afternoon.
Let’s Go Pens!
