    Was just about to post this

    Just fell to my knees in Walmart checkout 😦

    Finally, also full on the Sheary gone train too

    I assume ABB was going to be sent back to Crunch but was on roster for too long so he must be put on waivers.

    Do we expect a couple internal moves before TDL? Koepke is a welcome surprise but a surprise nonetheless. I’m pretty curious about the strategy right now. I guess it depends on where we are in a few weeks.

    Good.ABB just isn’t NHL calibre.

    Dude was given every single chance to succeed and he just never showed anything outside of a flash. I would be extremely surprised if anyone claimed him.

    Some see this as a good thing. I see this as he has been chosen like so many before him to find his way on another team and ultimately score a goal against the bolts…

  9. He’s just an AHL player. You can tell he thinks the game well but he does not have the strength to keep up with NHL hockey.

    I don’t have an issue with him being a primary call-up for ~10 games a year though. Not the worst guy to have in the system.

    he’s going to the gulag!!!!! (assume i wrote that in uppercase)

    It’s that time of year – the snow is melting, the birds are chirping and Alex Barre-Boulet is on waivers.

    Finally. Have no idea why he continues to be in the lineup. The guy can’t win a puck battle if his job was on the line. Oh wait.

    ABB is a cromulent AHL player. Baseball calls ’em AAAA players (too good at the highest minor level but not good enough for the Bigs).

    Back in the day, Alex Barre-Boulet was called « Blair Jones » and he played for the Norfolk Admirals. ABB is the reincarnation of Stan Drulia of the Atlanta Knights.

    Every team hopes they’re too good and too healthy for the ABBs of their franchise to play real minutes for their NHL squad. Stay in the minors… be a legend in Syracuse, Norfolk or Wilkes-Barre. Fall in love with a local girl…

    Pretty soon ABB will have to decide: stay in the A? or play a few seasons in Europe?
