Justin Peters Recalled From Albany

They (the Canes) didn’t mention that in the press release – only in the Tweet. oops.

ice_chip: “Cam Ward has upper-body injury and is returning to Raleigh.”

GREAT, just great. : /

according to Chip via Tweeter…Cam ward is, and Peters & Boychuk are on the way to buffalo…now i wonder if the "rumored " Wallin trade will happen today or will we all have to wait until the day before the olympics starst..hmmm the waters are getting murkier…

back is tricky … is that upper body or lower body. tee hee

So who wants to tweet Chip and ask him if he noticed who was in net at the Canes practice today? He didn’t mention Cam wasn’t there till Bob tweeted the announcement on the Peters call-up…..?

I agree with you that it may be something really small and they just figure it’s better to send him home than have him seriously hurt himself.

I also second the “not the back” sentiments.

I have said that I fervently hope that we work the IR list so hard the remainder of this season that Gary Bettman has to personally call JR and ask him “What the heck is going on down there?!?” :-D

yeah theres no rush now.

IF (big if) Mo still thinks he can field wingers for Sutter to operate a checking line that he can throw out against the opposition’s top line, then I’m going to seriously doubt that he plugs Boychuk (who is still working on his D) into that line in a one-for-one substitution pattern.

I was even looking at Ruutu’s presence there a bit askance, although he is defensively responsible.

But, if Boychuk doe appear on that line, would be interested to see if it is because Mo has at least temporarily gone back to strength-on-strength, top line against top line, for the remainder of the road trip. Might make sense as he has first change and will have a hard time getting the matchups he wants.

If so, then Sutter’s line becomes a scoring line, just like all the rest, I suppose.

I suspect Ruuts was just a fill-in for the lines until Boychuck arrives, so they’d have enough warm bodies to keep the other lines intact. Maurice had said previously that there was a chance he could be in the lineup tomorrow night, but Chip tweeted today that he could return next week, so I suspect that they’ll play Boychuk both nights.

  I keep checking twitter to see if Wallin has been in fact been traded. It is interesting that Boychuk is recalled. I hope he will have some break out games. It will also be great if Peters can get some time in goal. He has had some excellent games in Albany — along with less stellar ones on somewhat rare occasions.

   I am not hearing much concrete about the Whitney, Cullen, Corvo situations. Hope springs eternal that A.Ward will become the object of some GM’s desire. Anybody hearing anything more definite about Cole’s return?

And that Boychuk will be on Sutter’s line. Oy.

And now: he wasn’t injured in Calgary but tightened up on the flight to Buffalo. censored

it is concerning. Back problems don’t go away. They can get better for a while, but they always come back.

STOP IT!!!!!! Just don’t even go there.

Maybe, just maybe, it will convince them to find a good backup, and play him more than once every 6 weeks.
