First year pro (2008 draft pick #44 for Buffalo in the 2nd round), Luke Adam(39) showed promise out of camp to earn an early season call-up and has been back-and-forth from the Pirates to the Sabres. He’s yet to really light it up in NHL.

If Marc Savard is out indefinitely after suffering another concussion, Boston Bruins management should call up rookie Jordan Caron(38) who has already played 20 games for the big club and notched 7 points.
This is a no brainer and I can’t be the only one who is thinking this. Unless there is some sort of salary cap issue with having him play too many NHL games for his entry level contract to kick in.
Things got tense between Cam MacIntyre(41) and Michel Haley(18) as the Sharks took a two-goal lead on the Sound Tigers in the 2nd period of IceCats’ night at the DCU. No matter though, as Bridgeport were spoilers scoring the next three for the 6-3 win.
Sharks‘ 2011 AHL All-Star defenseman Justin Braun(27) gives me the thumbs up on the coolness of the IceCats‘ jerseys the team wore on 1/22.
He just cranked a 95.6 mph slapshot at the AHL Skills Competion in Hershey, which was good enough for 2nd but should have been first if the rules were followed.
Islanders‘/Sound Tigers‘ defenseman Dylan Reese is used to the trips back and forth between Connecticut and Long Island. He’s been called-up 4 times for 19 games this season but has done less well than he did in 19 games in the NHL last season. Having recently been reassigned to the AHL, you have to wonder if he will get another shot with the big club.
James Marcou(19) delivers the gloves of Cam MacIntyre(41) to the bench after his brawl that sent him to the dressing room early before the period ended.
Sharks‘ big and tough guy Frazer McLaren(10) 6’5″ 250 lbs. is sporting a shiner he picked up from getting poked in the eye during a fight with P-Bruins‘ Brian McGratton(11) at the Dunk on 1/16.
Over 1200 NHL games played, 19 seasons, 386 goals and 692 points in the face-off circle for the Worcester Sharks and Portland Pirates between veteran forwards Jonathan Cheechoo(14) and Mark Parrish(13).
That’s just plain crazy.
Worcester Sharks signed Grafton, MA native Ryan Lannon(44) to a pto recently. He’s suited up for 4 games and been a healthy scratch for 2 since joining the team. I will always fondly remember him as a part of those great WBS Pens squads from 2005-2008. Hopefully he can make an impact and stick with the local club.
