You prefer someone else sitting in the Press Box?

Hopefully it's Bollig in the press box and not F. Hamilton.

Bollig is supposed to be in the press box. That's the best spot for him.

Someone who can benefit and improve by sitting in the press box watching players tendencies and able to practice with the roster and contribute if a hole suddenly opens up.

Not just someone one separating skittles and putting them in zip-locks for Johnny.

I wonder if one of our D might be on the move, and Grossmann will be the #7.

Who do you suggest would fit as you state? I don't see a good fit, that would learn much of anything sitting and not playing, out of the young guys.

8 D with Smid still there, that's the 23 man roster at the moment. Makes sense to have the highest contracts as possible on the books until they can put Smid on LTIR once the season starts.

Who do you think that is? Who would you prefer that be the development path vs. playing Stockton? Serious question.

This would be the only circumstance I'd be happy with. Oh, and it has to be Wideman on the move.

I'd rule Kevin out, I don't think anyone would take Wideman. That means it would be Engellend.

It was idle speculation as to why were still have a PTO D hanging around.

Bollig demoted and a trade on the horizon?

Or more likely, Bollig sick and not available.

If Pribyl counts against the cap then someone other than Vey needs to go down as well.
