He's coming back? Why?

Looks like teams want their old players back. First Philadelphia, then Montreal, now us.

Well, at least those teams are winning.

At least we don't gain an NHL contract.

It's funny. I suggested we ditch our AHL vets in another thread.

As soon as I saw his name as one of the Point West clients I had a feeling he was headed our way. Like I said in the Trade Speculation thread, not surprised but disappointed.

Meh, I don't think Piskula was ever destined to fit on this roster with the abundance of 3rd pairings that we have. Need to see who they send down to have him on the roster.

haha i had a feeling we might see him return when he went on waivers. Especially with the talk of a lack of toughness. At least he will serve purpose on our bottom line...more so than say...Blake Comeau.

At least it is a contract for a contract.

Maybe teams won't run the goalie anymore

Loved that game two years ago when he beat someone up and scored the GWG.

Another winger, a guy that basically replaces the guys that that the GM extended last trade deadline. Treading water.
