Interesting. Of the people that could get called up that was unexpected.

Must be rotating NHL paychecks throughout the farm hands.

Probably a placeholder for Chucky so he can have a couple of extra days off. Just a guess.

Interesting.

Maybe its just time to get another RS in the lineup and with the AHL allstar game tomorrow IIRC and Gawdin going to it, they just went to the next man fitting that description.

Huge dude as well and the Blues play a very heavy game, so that it wouldn't hurt to play him in that situation either.

I wouldn't say it's that unexpected. It was likely Robinson, Gawdin, or Czarnik.

Czarnik is small, so if they're looking to beef up a bit, Robinson or Gawdin are the better choices.

Ironically, the fact that Gawdin made the AHL All-Star game may have led to Robinson getting the call since they might not have wanted to take away the All Star experience from Gawdin if he's unlikely to play in Calgary.

Why would Tkachuk want or need extra days off?

I approve any call-up that has a late June, 1974 release b-movie SOCALsploitation name.

Top line duties.

Perhaps this move is somehow related to a re-acquisition of Brouwer who just went on waivers? Okay, bad joke. I'm sorry

I like this roster move. Czarnik didn't want the bottom six RHS job, mine as well give someone else a shot.

He will get the same amount of playing time that Davidson and Valiev got.

Johnny might get a chance to suit up with his childhood Buddy.

I wonder if he draws in against the Grease though. Someone else to tune Kassian?

You never know, it’s a lot more difficult to play with 5 dmen than it is to play with 11 forwards if Buddy looked way out of place and only got 5mins of ice time.

We’ve thrown out 1-2 forwards that are minimal impact players each night so maybe he gets a look.

I’ve like Rieder and Rinaldo in spurts throughout the year but the two of them and Jankowski haven’t solidified a guaranteed roster spot by any means where the other 10 guys have.
