What rough luck...that really sucks. He finally gets more than a cup of coffee and he gets cut down.

Damn.

Sucks for Kirkland. Opportunity for someone else.

Kerins maybe?

I think it's Pelletier and Kuzmenko will go back in for Duehr.

I so badly want to see one of these in the return line and eavesdrop the entire conversation.

I guess it will depend a lot on how his recovery goes. He's an upcoming UFA and the type of guy the Flames likely want to keep in the organization, so he still has an outside shot of a contract like the one you are proposing.

Think he might have gotten a $1.5 x 3 years if he hadn't been hurt and kept up his scoring pace though.

Tough break for the guy. Everyone loves an underdog.

That said, he's the type of tweener depth player you don't overpay or sign long term, even if it's minuscule compared to others.

Unlike Mantha I hope Conroy circles back to Kirkland with another contract. Good spark plug player with size who deserves at least another one year deal.

That really sucks, usually with tweeners like him, injuries like this are the end of their NHL career.

Silver lining, at least he got injured in the show and is going to make his big boi salary for the year. Some scenario where he got sent down and got injured in the A, he would be way worse off.

Alright. I'll take that silver lining for him.

But I also agree, the guy just got his shot and he shot it and shot it well.

It sucks to see it happen to a journeyman guy finally getting his break.

Tomorrow shall be a day of Costco hot dogs! Maybe even a pizza.

Ouch, really like that story and player. He had the makings of a new Derek Ryan. You love to see 4th liners who contribute above their paygrade and have unexpected talents like the shootout.

Weird. Kind of like Mantha. I didn’t remember seeing any sort of big incident that could have led to a wrecked knee.

He fell funny after that one faceoff. But it didn’t seem that bad.

Guess it’s an opportunity for Duehr and Pelletier. I think Klapka’s days are numbered.
