The Flames and general manager announced yesterday the club has re-assigned 17 players to the Flames minor league affiliate, Quad-City. Here is the list of players sent down:
1. Hugo Carpentier, C
2. Kris Chucko, RW
3. Adam Cracknell, RW
4. Cam Cunning, LW
5. Carsen Germyn, LW
6. Warren Peters, C
7. Dan Ryder, C
8. Aki Seitsonen, RW
9. Jonathan Tramblay, RW
10. David Van der Gulik, LW
11. Peter Vandermeer, LW
12. J.D. Watt, RW
13. Brad Cole, D
14. Brett Palin, D
15. Dan Spang, D
16. Ryan Wilson, D
17. Leland Irving, G
Really no surprises here especially since Van der Gulik was the only on to see any exhibition game time. Kris Chucko is looking more and more like a gigantic 1st round bust, while Leland Irving had a groin injury and the Flames didn't want to risk making it worse, hence why he didn't see any game action.
I really cant wait for the season to start, especially after the Flames romped the Panthers 8-2 last night. I know it is only exhibition but from what I heard on the radio the Flames looked really good. Peter Maher said they are way faster than last year and that is music to my ears. All the new guys have chipped in on the score sheet and Boyd has been awesome, racking up 6 points in 3 games. Look for him to get a shot on the second line to start the season.
