Any speculation on which D-man has earned the first call-up?

Billins. He's been one of, if not the best defenceman for the Heat since the season started. I think he would deserve first call.

I thought Billins looked solid during the prospect camp as well.

Conroy was praising Billins at the Flames Fest on Sunday too.

Billins is tied with Hanowski for the team lead in goals.

He's also quite competent defensively as well.

What type of game does Billins play? I see he's the smallest d-man in Abbotsford (same height as Cundari, but 25 pounds lighter). He's the same size as Russell, but not a lot of players that size play the way Russell does.

How are the rest of the D in Abby looking so far?

Ha, Ward hasn't had enough time to screw Billins up yet.

Sweet! I feel like the games have been so spread out so far. The big team and the farm on the same day. It's a good day for hockey!

Berra comes up big tonight. Hanowski pots 2. Wotherspoon has multi-point night. That's my prediction.

I'll go with 4-2 Heat, goals from Hanowski, Horak, Billins and Reinhart.

I'm curious who gets the start. Maybe Ortio, although I sort of think we finally see him play on the weekend.

Reto Berra has been pulled.

Joni Ortio starts in net for the 2nd. First time in net for the Heat this season.

HEAT GOAL!

Markus Granlund with this first AHL goal! Assist to Olson and Hanowski.

Heat lead 4-3.

Looks like Utica has taken Vancouvers lead: Fans throwing things on the ice after the goal.
