Can we ice an entire lineup of just LHDs next season?

We got enough for all the positions at the company. Head trainer: LHD, Head Coach: LHD, PA Announcer: LHD, guy working the popcorn machine: LHD...

I guess signings are slowly going to trickle out, but...

As far as our late season PTOs go, I liked Frisch and I liked Burke. Vincent and Kinal didn't really move the needle much for me, I was very "meh" on both and a little surprised we're keeping them even as depth.

NOLLY'S NOTES - BLOG #33 | San Jose Barracuda

www.sjbarracuda.com

In his notes, Nollenberger says Frisch, Vincent and Kinal are the only three players signed to AHL deals with the Barracuda for the upcoming year.

So if that's true, anyone who had been playing on an AHL-only contract last season is no longer with with the team (unless we re-sign them, of course). That would be: Luke Johnson, Patrick Sieloff, Montana Onyebuchi, Patrick Holway, Will Riedell, Darren Brady, Billy Constantinou.

Just worth mentioning because the AHL deals we sign are often very nebulous, so it's good to have some clarification.

Any of those very big losses?

Nah. Darren Brady I thought did fine for us, but we now have a ton of defensemen, so yeah. Sieloff seemed to be a good veteran presence.

Luke Johnson was a guy that McCarthy leaned on in a lot of situations early last season (key faceoffs, PK, etc), but he seemed to decline as the season was going. We'll probably sign a veteran center to replace him.

Really only thought it was worth mentioning because the Cuda have a habit of announcing we've signed someone, but not for how long, i.e. I had no idea Holway had been signed for a second season until he started showing up on our preseason camp lists last year. Clean slate this time around, it looks like.

I thought Burke played well enough to stick. What do I know?

 

[LadyStanley]

I read Nollenberger's blog as those are the only guys signed to date.

It may be that none of the AHL SPC guys are signed, nor any of the ATO guys signed late season.

I've been waiting for that shoe to drop too, but they can still sign him anytime they like. Plenty of offseason left.

Hobo, I didn’t see this kid play. What is your idea on this signing??

Yeah, I didn't get to see him either. He joined the team for the last few games after I'd already left for the year.

Small guy, listed at 5'9". 4 games, 0 points.

I think the only tryouts that joined the team at the end of the year that haven't signed on with us yet for 23-24 are Gresock and Burke. I'm surprised how many of these guys we're signing, it's very unusual.

Arvid Henrikson is not returning, he quietly signed in Sweden with Västervik last month.

It's weird that Burke hasn't signed yet. He had the best audition of the group

I thought so as well. Adapted quickly to the pro game. Maybe it’ll happen later, as you said before.

Maybe he's holding out for an NHL deal?

This was one I was hoping for.
