Looks like tonight's healthy skater scratches will be Yevenko, Stevenson, Acolatse, Reid, Cameron, Gillies.

Diana C. Nearhos @dianacnearhos
Not 100 percent which of Witt and Carr will be scratched, but it's been Witt every game so far.

From some previous experience, many kids in college will sign these ATO's so the teams keep rights while they finish up some important classes and get ready to make the move over. It's not like NHL/AHL where you are signed/traded and you just pick up and move. They give them a little more leniency.

A realistic expectation would to see him with the team by Saturday and perhaps play next week.

^Huska said on 960 in an interview this morning that Morrison is expected to join the team today.

He also said Morrison would need a few practices to get up to speed as he hasn't played in a while and that once he got into the lineup he expected him to be a regular.

As for Yevenko, it did not sound like they plan to play him at all. Huska said Yevenko was going to practice with the team to show what he has and that he wasn't sure if Yevenko would get any games.

Thoughts on Thiessen anyone?
GAA: 2.84
SV%: 0.909
Seems to me like he'll never be good enough for the NHL level

He is what he is. A 4th string goaltender. Never really in the long term plans of the Calgary Flames.

Journeyman in the AHL.

1-1 after the first period.

Hanowski banged in a rebound fairly late to tie it.
