Manitoba Moose

Dale said he was pretty happy there so can't see him coming up here. Claude Noel's available.

[Ducky]

Hawerchuk has stated he would look at the NHL after his kids were grown...

[Goalie]

3 years for DW in barrie. How many left for Maurice. Wouldn't surprise me if Dale is jets coach one day but he ain't leaving Barrie for the Moose 

[Ducky]

DW?

[Goalie]

The LHD we have been waiting for!!!!!!!!!!..........wonder if he cracks the Moose lineup???

[Goalie]

Ya. He's a good ahl player. He will definitely play on the Moose. It's an ahl contract so it's his only option. It's a really nice signing actually for the moose. Cormier not getting an nhl contract is interesting. Didn't think he would. Didn't think he'd be back with the Moose tho but probably be captain.

Im glad Cormier is back.  Good veteran leadership.  He played well in call ups too.  He's a capable player.  Clearly his NHL dream was pretty much over especially now the Jets have more depth.  He could have tried to go somewhere else but maybe likes his role here.  He must be at peace with it to sign an AHL contract.  Good signings.

Some speculation around that the Moose will be signing former Wheat King and Winnipeg born Scott Glennie.  

RW taken by Dallas high a few years ago in the Nhl draft. Never lived up to expectations but a very good goal scorer in the ahl. Moose might be a lot better this year.

Nice article about Glennie here, if you can read the Freep;

Why not? It's an ahl contract. My fear was he'd get an nhl deal but he didn't... don't see the issue with Cormier on the moose long term at all.  You need veteran presences around for the young guys.

Anyone know the line combos for the Moose?  How are they doing??

Dano - De Leo - Kosmachuk

Petan - Roslovic - Olsen

Howden - Copp - Lipon

Lemieux - Cormier - Peluso

Moose are 1-1-1 but not scoring much.

http://moosehockey.com/stats/

Howden has 3 goals in 3 games.  Peluso 2 assists, Roslovic 1 goal 1 assist.

Lemieux on the 4th line eh?

Pretty good depth at LW with 3 guys with significant NHL/AHL experience and great junior careers ahead of him.  It's the AHL, though, these guys are gonna be moving around all year.  They all play significant minutes and Lemieux is already well on his way to becoming one of the most hated players in the AHL.

I still remember when the Canadiens sent Claude down to the minors.  He got so mad that he put a stick through the windshield of one of the coaches cars.  Brendan is no doubt cut from the same cloth.

Lemieux just got back the last game from a long term injury. He will be with De Leo soon on his line. Just needs to get his game legs back. Wasn't skating for almost a month really.

We don't know what line he will end up on.  I'm sure he won't spend all year on the 4th line.  I was at the game on Tuesday and Lemieux is such a **** disturber.  My goodness.  It was the same in the young guys tournament before the pre-season.  The next great agitator but can he use it for good rather than evil?  Stay tuned true believers.

[Ducky]

I honestly believe that Lemieux had a very good chance of making the team out of TC until he was injured.

if he's like his dad his true value will be in the playoffs.

Pav gives up 4 But Moose pop 5 and win 5 4. Petan with the winner in to the empty net. Yup. Condors scored with 1 second left to make it 5 4. Roslovic with another. Kosmschuk with 1. Kostalek altho should be Olsen. Lemieux scored also. Fans go home with a free coupon for pancakes as the Moose scored 5.
