His Charlotte Checkers are down 2-0 in their 5 game series vs Frank's Bears.

Tonight is game 3, if Hershey wins they move on.

Just one thought here, imagine if Mcallister was just one year older, Polin, Mcallister, Sasson, Frank on one team, we might score 10 a game.

Mcallister was the play driver on that line . I expect him to have the most success going forward and think the other two will be ECHL AHL tweeners .

Frank did just sign an NHL deal with Washington but it is a two way deal . That being said Washington was sellers at the trade deadline and their team has gotten fairly old so he should have a fair chance next year . A lot of the time it's being in the right place at the right time

I would love to just see Frank get a chance in a few NHL games to see what he can do, hes not big but hes fast as lightning and has a great shot.

USA! USA! USA! USA!

It is possible that Frank and Passolt could play each other in the AHL Eastern Conference Finals.

Both of their teams (Hershey and Rochester) are both up in their current AHL series.

Frank gets a Calder Cup winning assist for the Hershey Bears last night as the Bears (Washington) beat Coachella Valley (Seattle) in overtime game seven. Congrats Ethen!

Flyers have already traded Ivan Provorov. They're on the verge of trading Tony DeAngelo. Travis Sanheim is rumored to be getting dealt too.

Attard should have a spot with the Flyers next year.

They got a D man ( Walker ) back in the Provorov and Sandheim was being swapped Tory Krug but has now fallen thru . I think he might get a few games due to injuries but fully expect him to be in AHL for most of the year .

I feel like Ronnie is right on the cusp of being NHL ready. At the point of, if he can win a regular shift out of camp they'll give it to him, but it looks like he'll be the #7 guy (or on the border of #6 and #7) he'll get sent down to develop another season.

They gave Attard a qualifying offer which I'd expect he'll sign. He's 24 years old, if he can't crack the NHL lineup full time sometime this year it's not a promising sign.

He had a nice season at Lehigh Valley.

If they end up trading Tony DeAngelo, I think he will have an opportunity on the PP & a 3rd pair defenseman.

Tony DeAngelo put on Waivers by Philly today with plans to buy out his contract.

Big opportunity for Attard on the PP in Philly now.

First player in NHL history to have his contract bought out twice. Couldn't have happened to a more deserving dipshit.

Agreed

Schunemann signed with the avs.

It’s likely him and Polin will play in together this year.

Wade & Ronnie both wearing new numbers next year. Wade in his college #17.

Getting their preferred numbers is a good indication they at least have a good shot at making the opening day roster (without being an injury replacement).

Yeah, I think Wade is locked into an everyday role. Ronnie might need 1 injury at D to get that opportunity.
