Trizzak Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 McNiven recalled to be backup for Price's suspended game tomorrow. No Lindgren? Have the Habs soured on him? I know it's only to be backup for one game, but you'd think the guy with the one way contract and NHL experience would be the one brought up.

The Rocket play the Marlies in back to back this weekend They are trying to catch them to make the playoffs (the Marlies have the last playoff spot right now) I think if it was a callup to actually play the game they would go Lindgren, but when its to stay on the bench, they've kept lindgren for the important AHL games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlbalr Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 On merit, McNiven earned the nod as he has outplayed Lindgren lately. It's a day or two of extra NHL pay for him, a nice little reward for his strong January. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
