This article even makes it more confusing:

 did we trade for him or something? Did I miss something? ...
Anyhow, I liked Aliu's play in Salzburg. Big guy, will certainly help in Abbotsford. |
Yeah, I suppose it wasn't a PTO then. My bad. All I saw on AHL.com was that he was added to the team. I wonder what Feaster traded for him? Maybe one of our struggling prospects?
Either way, I'm excited to have him. He's very similar to Bancks in his style of play, only a much bigger kid.
BTW, Ward updated the injuries in Abby during this week's "Wednesday with Ward" segment. Rheault will play this week sometime. Ivanans is ready to come back right away. Bancks, Martin, and Sylvester will be out for another 1 to 2 weeks.
