dlbalr Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Good news, it looks like Nokelainen is ready to come back. Bad news, it may not be for the Habs as he was waived today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trizzak Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 I really doubt anyone picks him up. He's a 4th liner who hasn't played in about 11 months, no? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If nothing else, he should represent somewhat of an upgrade in Hamilton for the time being. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lovett's Magnatones Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 No one is happier about this than Ryan White. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurdBurglar Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 This probably has a lot to do with getting him into game shape. Good to see he's ready to play, nice to have more depth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlbalr Posted March 14, 2013 Author Share Posted March 14, 2013 Prediction time - will he be claimed? Vote in the poll at the top of the thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMMR Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Ill say no. Good on Dumont. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JGC21 Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Ill say no. Good on Dumont. So I guess this means Dumont is safe until Bourque returns. Once Prust comes back, I could see White being the odd man out. I still stay say a trade for a veteran forward is coming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Machine of Loving Grace Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 He should be a good help to Hamilton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlbalr Posted March 15, 2013 Author Share Posted March 15, 2013 He should be a good help to Hamilton. Much to my surprise, he's actually already with the team in St. John's and will play tonight on the 2nd line. I figured he'd have caught up with the team after the road trip.

Commandant Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Second Line was supposed to be Blunden - Nokelainen - Leblanc Until Blunden got recalled. I was having bad flashbacks to last year and Habs third/fourth lines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hankhab Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Although we have even more promising young players coming to the AHL next year, we really need a few AHL vets on this team to help the young guys win. This team has an awful time scoring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
