Whale goalie Chad Johnson(29) started the unfortunate streak of 2-0 shutout losses that I’m on at Worcester Sharks‘ games.
On 2/5-10 he posted his second shutout of the season.
In his 6th year in the Devils‘ prospect system, Stephen Gionta(11) earned his first NHL call up for 12 games with New Jersey. He didn’t register any points but didn’t look out of place either, especially considering he stands all of 5′ 7″ tall.
I hope he scores himself another call up this season.

Albany Devils‘ #1 goaltender Mike McKenna(1) has been struggling at times in the first half of the season, but he may have just started to turn the corner with the team as he notched his first shutout for the year last Tuesday vs. Worcester at the DCU.
Anyone know why he ditched his Twitter account?
Sean Sullivan(37) was overlooked to participate in the 2010/2011 AHL All-Star Game in Hershey even though he has a league leading 10 goals among defensemen. Not cool.
the Rangers are putting the scare in their 2008 first round (20th overall) draft pick’s hockey pants by shipping him to Connecticut due to deteriorating numbers on the scoring sheet. Last season in his rookie year he led all Rangers‘ d-men in points.
Bad Del Zotto. He won’t be with the Whale long.
Jason Williams(10) was last seen in the AHL in 2002-2003 with Grand Rapids, affiliate of Detroit Red Wings. Just one year prior he was with the Red Wings for their Stanley Cup run. Since then he’s played with the Blackhawks, Thrashers, Blue Jackets and back to the Wings last year.
Without a contract for 2010/2011, he signed a pto with Connecticut Whale late last year and in 6 games has registered a couple of goals to go along with a couple of assists.
Could the Rangers sign him for his one-time presence around the Cup?
Before being returned to his ECHL team, Bakersfield Condors, 6′ 4″ tough guy, Erick Lizon(44) signed to a pto with Worcester Sharks throws down against Whale pugilist Justin Soryal(47).
Corey Locke(84) has always been amongst the leaders in AHL scoring in his 7-year pro career but finally notched his first point (an assist) in first NHL action with Ottawa on 1/13-11.
It’s only his fifth game in the big league ever but maybe he can stick for awhile and make an impact with the lowly Senators.

After starting the 2010/2011 season without a contract and then signing a pto with Bridgeport Sound Tigers, Jeremy Colliton(21) earned his two-way deal with New York Islanders.
He was recalled the first weekend of January and scored two goals in his second game with the team in their overtime win vs. Colorado.
It was his first for the team since April 15, 2006. The Isles are the only NHL team he has skated for in his 5 years and spent last season in Europe before returning.
