Dunno if there's anything to it but the local paper here is still making noise about the Rockets working to get Zemgus Girgenssons sent down from the AHL, pretty classic move for the Rockets, they seem to do this every year or two (eg Backlund and Kobasew from the Flames both came here after having issues at other levels), had heard that Girgenssons wasn't really seeing alot of ice in the A and I think sending an 18 year old straight out of the USHL there was a bit boneheaded anyway but am getting the feeling it's a longshot. The team has been continually improving this year, he will get big minutes to work on offensive skills and probably a couple rounds of playoff experience so you never know.
