And 2 recruits added to Dogs for 3 in 3 weekend. (don't bitch, whine or pout Beaulieu, play hard and show that you are too good for AHL)

And again I ask why did they bother recalling Bournival on Sunday to sit in pressbox yesterday?

How far off are Crisp/Thrower from playing? Weeks for Crisp and couple months for Thrower?

Both Bournival/Beaulieu will be recalled following Saturday night's game as well. I don't think they want to send Bournival down permanently (or for a longer stretch) so doing this at least keeps him in game shape.

As for injuries, Crisp was skating a little while back but nothing has been said since then. Thrower is a longer-term injury although I don't think he'll miss a couple more months (I think it's more like one month at this point).

I get they don't want to staple Bournival in Hamilton lineup, but seems to call up sun and sent back down tues/wed, what good is that? When they must of known either Weise or Sekac would be playing Monday.

no big deal but maybe a few weeks in Hamilton is best for him right now with glut of bottom six NHLers on roster and biggest of all no injuries yet..

They took the team picture in Montreal this week, maybe they wanted him there for that?

Both Nevins and Crisp in lineup yesterday-- Bournival and Beaulieu not in lineup probably so they can make it to Edmonton for tonight's game. Montreal has three games in four nights on the road-- B&B may see a game or two from ice level

I found this odd: Of the top eight PIM leaders in the AHL so far this year, six have suited up for the Bulldogs at some point in their careers (this includes Bobby Farnham who was with the team in the preseason a few years back).

Haven't heard a peep from Pateryn in weeks..how is he doing? will his play merit a call up anytime soon? Habs defensemen(except for ol' reliable) are struggling mightily!

He hasn't played as well as he did last season. I don't know if it's that teams are keying on him, he's not happy having been sent down, or if he was just playing over his head last year. He hasn't played bad by any stretch (just not as dominant as 2013-14) but right now, I'd say Drewiske should be at the top of the recall list.

Quick question: what happens when Bourque lights up the scoreboard in Hamilton? Do we call him back up? move him? it's a real head-scratcher

If injury to bottom six player or two, he would be a safe call up. And maybe AHL lifestyle wont be to his liking, as well being passed over in waivers would suck for him and he plays some inspired hockey? :blush:

Hudon 5th in AHL scoring and tied for 1st among rookies. Not bad at all.

With Pastrnak up in Boston now, Hudon could take over the outright rookie lead soon.

Also, Hamilton's getting some reinforcements (for a few days at least) with Beaulieu/Bowman going down. Whether or not one of them stays before they play on Friday in Lake Erie remains to be seen.
