Yeah biggest news there to me is that Bollig is officially sent down.

Played pretty good for us during the playoffs a couple years back but never brought the same game to the regular season.

I don't see where they announced LTIR. Just injured reserve, which is different.

People are going to be so grumpy when Bollig returns tomorrow to replace Kulak after today's paper transaction.

Interesting. Especially when one can go down without waivers.

Hmm interesting. Is there any reason not to place him on LTIR?

Since its not cap space we can bank, there's no point to doing it now I suppose.

Well if they are below the cap then there is no need for LTIR. They only need LTIR to exceed the salary cap.

Also, hopefully Pribyl going down means he's ready to start skating.

I cant believe Grossman made the team, was it a Merit thing or did it just work out in terms of dollars? I'm glad Kulak made it, hopefully he isnt just the new Wotherspoon.

"Kula-Spoon!!"

Naw, it just doesnt have the same ring to it.

He couldn't have been sent down if he was still injured, so he must have been medically cleared.
