Abbotsford needs him. Carter Bancks, Brodie and Patterson are the only players left on that team with any skill.

I would suspect that would be an absolute.  if he came to play for abby though, would that use a year of his ELC or how would that work?

Nope, we had a few prospects do it last year and it didnt effect their ELC.

Holland added another assist in last nights game against the Giants.  Spencer Bennett has not yet tallied a point in the first three games.  Americans lead the Giants 3 games to 0.  Game for tonight in Vancouver.

Should we book Spencer Bennett a ticket for Abbotsford now, or wait until later?

Not to sound like a complete homer, but Vancouver looked to be down and out last night in the third.  I think you could book that ticket for tonight!     |

			Spencer Bennett's season is done as Vancouver lost game 4 tonight. I expect he'll probably be on his way to Abbotsford now. Holland and Tri-City move on to the second round with that win.

			The Flames have signed G Joni Ortio, as per Mango (and a Flames press release). He'll be reporting to Abbotsford on an amateur try-out contract.

			At this point, are playoffs out of the picture for both teams? What is the development strategy at this point? Send players back to the minors, let stand, call up juniors?

I would love to see him play in one these upcoming games. The Heat have to play four games in five nights, so I'm hoping to see Ortio at least once.

			Say what you will about Kotalik, but he really helped the Heat when he washere before, so I hope he reports with this new demotion. The Heat really need
 some offensive help.

		| The gritty rookie forward has three points over his past four outings, and even dropped the gloves in his first game back. "If we'd had Carter Bancks all along . . . we'd  probably be first in our division," Playfair said. "He's that much of an  impact player."

		| Playfair indicated Ortio might not suit up for the Heat this weekend, due to the fact he hasn't played in a while. "But we'll see him at some point in time before the  end of the year, for sure," the Heat bench boss said. "He's an exciting  kid. He's got some credentials, and we want to see how he develops and  shapes up in the pro game."

		| No. 1 goalie Leland Irving could be back in the Heat crease on Friday  evening against Grand Rapids. He's missed the past five games with a  groin injury. "I think he's ready," Playfair said. "He's going to  take the pregame skate in the morning, and I think he's going to play  tomorrow night for us."

			Bit of an overstatement on Bancks. But he is definitely a good player for them and one of my darkhorse favorites to make the NHL.
