IIRC, Krischuk was an ECHL all-star last season. Good numbers.

[Wranglers110]

Solid, well rounded, good at all things if not a master at any one thing. Largely mistake-free, but will stand up for teamates. I can't really think of anything critical to say about him.

[chris lindberg]

So, this guy was never drafted, what is his age?

[RatherDashing]

I guess this means somebody from QC is on the way up to replace Warrener?

Any idea who it will be?

My question too.

Comes down to Pelech, Ramholt and Pardy I would imagine.

Do our QC faithful have a vote for who it should be?

Well heck let's make a poll.

If possible gang let's limit this to people that have watched the team regularly this season. Would be good to get an educated gauge on who should come up from those "in the know"

[MrMastodonFarm]

Interesting, I wonder who will get the call. Like Jiri I think it boils down to Ramholt, Pelech or Pardy. My guess is one of Ramholt or Pardy due to experiance, but Pelech seems to have been pretty solid for most of the year down there. Should be interesting. This would be a huge opportunity for Ramholt to stick IMO.

Right now, I think the only real answer would be to get the Pardy started. :bag: Ramholt hasn't impressed me nearly as much as Pardy has. Pelech would be the second, in my opinion, but I don't think he's ready just yet. He started out pretty shaky, and didn't get much ice time at all, but has really played well of late. I'd say give him another month at this pace, and he could earn a call up for spot duty once and awhile. When he plays with a mean streak, he can dominate.

Not that Sutter would care, but the PR aspect of having a first rounder in Pelech finally make the show would be ideal as well.

If his play from training camp has continued in QC, I would like to see Pardy as my first pick though.

[SparkyOne]

I agree that it'll be Pardy. He's been doing an excellent job, especially the last few games. But I know one little kid who's going to be seriously disappointed!

Ramholt has to learn to control the dumb penalties. Not quite as dumb as Prust's really stupid penalties, though, so there's hope....

McGill said in today's paper that no one is going to Calgary at this time...thank god! We've got four rookies and two vets playing defense.

With Cullen coming in, that adds to the mix, although I have no idea when he may actually get here(I'm guessing by next week's Rivermen games).

MacIntyre's 25 game PTO is up with Providence soon ... :D

Aw man! I was waiting to get the Pardy started just to have McGill has to disappoint me and say no call ups to Calgary yet.

none the less... Pardy On!

[Bingo]

ok I voted and shouldn't have based on the "seeing the team play" argument ... went with the camp performance reward

[skippy]

From the thread heading I thought this was about Kris Chucko... Whats with all the Krischuk kris chuckos?

[Freeway]

IIRC, Hambly and Palin are out in the QC for the time being. Sending up anybody seems rather...uh...crazy?

The farm team is there to provide players to the NHL team. If the Flames need one of Pelech, Pardy, or Ramholt then they will call one up without hesitation.

that makes two of us

ECHL.com's Transactions page is reporting Krischuk is heading back down to Las Vegas. Does this mean both Palin and Hambly are healthy again?
