Machine of Loving Grace Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Fantastic for Dumont. Play a passionate game now and people will remember for next camp. Montreal does play a back to back... do we see Mayer for Carolina? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dlbalr Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Any idea who the backup is for the Bulldogs tonight? Lawson's only DTD and on the trip so I'm guessing he'll dress tonight while they look for a more realistic solution (or that DiPronio again) once they get back.

Lovett's Magnatones Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Classless move calling up Dumont. Nobody on that Bulldogs roster deserves a call up more than Alex Henry. Especially seeing that the team is settling a score tomorrow with Ryan "Douchebag" Malone. I wonder if this team is serious about competing with the physical powerhouse that is the Eastern Conference. Dumont? Please! I guess Palushaj has another AHL dud to compete for Mr Irrelevant.

Commandant Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Alex Henry? The guy won't even catch Ryan Malone let alone fight him. He makes Hal Gill look like Pavel Bure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only is he an awful skater as Commandant noted, you want to steal another defenceman from a team literally missing 4 regulars on the blueline as it is? That would be more classless in my books as you're dealing an unnecessary blow to Hamilton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlbalr Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Just so it's out there, both callups were termed as emergency leaving the Habs with one 'free' recall between now and Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hamilton has a vague shot at the playoffs why call up a player who could jeopardize the little hope there is for them. Henry won't ever play in the NHL.

Lammy Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Any idea who the backup is for the Bulldogs tonight? From the Bulldogs website: The Bulldogs also signed goaltender Scott Darling to an emergency Professional Try-Out contract. Darling will back-up netminder Peter Delmas in tonight’s Bulldogs game in Oklahoma City. Darling, 23, has played 35 games for the Southern Professional Hockey League’s Mississippi RiverKings, compiling a 15-17-1 record with a 2.92 goals against average and a .905 save percentage. The 6-foot-5, 215-pound native of Lemont, Illinois previously played for the University of Maine and the USHL’s Indiana Ice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big kid. Maybe he'll impress someone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lovett's Magnatones Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 He's the captain of the dogs. He deserves something. He used to play some with the Capitals. I'll be enthused to see another smallish forward misused on the fourth line tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
habscout Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 I think I remember Dumont from a preseason game, either this September or last. He seemed to be a decent energy player, but his skating was a little slow if I recall correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commandant Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Alex Henry gets 200K per year to play in the AHL which is among the highest 2 way deals in the league. He's rewarded pretty well for what he does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Machine of Loving Grace Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Didn't the Wild use to change their Captain on a nightly basis or something strange like that? Monthly. It was a very strange exercise. If you ask me, there have been five real Minnesota Wild captains: - Brad Bombadir (9 months) - Andrew Brunette (7 months) - Mark Parrish (5 months) - Brian Rolston (5 months) - Mikko Koivu (6 months before being permanently given the C) I considered Gaborik but he was only given the captaincy to try to convince him to stay. Nobody else was captain for as many months as those five. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeLassister Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Yark. 37 is ugly. So is 65 by the way. Other thread coming... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willey101 Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 I'm guessing DUmont play center tonight. Too bad his parents won't be able to see him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
