RALEIGH, NC - Don Waddell, President and General Manager of the National Hockey League's Carolina Hurricanes, today announced that the team has reassigned goaltender Antoine Bibeau to the Chicago Wolves of the American Hockey League (AHL).

I would assume that means Mrazek will be back soon. I'd imagine he'll be traveling with the team to Tampa. We might not see him in the net for a little bit. But, with Bibeau back in CHI, Petr must be healthy enough to be our emergency 3rd.

The other night they said he was skating and taking hits, but no stick yet.

He's been skating for at last a week or so. From what I understand, teams have to carry a goalie on the taxi squad. I don't think we'd send Bibeau down unless Petr was already stick handling.

We've been carrying him as our third goalie the entire time, just game scratches.

Mrazek still hasn't done any stick work though according to Rod. He has done everything else though. They are definitely giving it a lot of time to heal up properly before even putting a stick in his hand.

Just looked and saw RBAs comments yesterday. Hopefully he'll have the stick back in his hand soon. I'm glad they are going to let take as long as he needs, though.

    • Darrell Jackson would be a fantastic pickup for us, I think he could replace 80% of what A’Shawn gave us last year. With more passing rush upside going forward in the future, I’m a big proponent of large framed defensive tackles. Pairing Derrick Brown with another 6’5 35inch arm length DT would be so fun to watch. Let’s continue being huge in the middle, allow our linebackers to flow to the ball uninterrupted.
    • Fully agree that the best thing to do is ignore them, which takes a away their thrill of thinking they got to you.
    • I agree with you on the pick of Thienemen in the first. I think he will still be there and he's a smart, fast and sturdy player. He's who we need back there. In the second, I like Rodriguez over Golday. I agree that off the ball linebackers are desperately needed here, even with our great FA pick up. I think with our third pick, we're going to dip into OT territory instead of the D-line. While I agree that we need another disruptor at the point of attack that is stout enough to just stonewall a center and a guard at the same time, we've got a shaky and expensive O-line at the present that is just about to age out of the game. I think we snag Blake Miller out of Clemson here and give him a year behind Moton to learn and put some weight and strength on. He can also jump right in and play right guard at any time. Also, and this might sound crazy, but anyone who has put up with multiple seasons at Clemson will be able to take the heat and humidity of training camp at the start of the season and early games against the NFCSouth.  Beyond that, your guess is as good as mine. We do need that QB for competition and realistically to study for back-up. Luke Altmyer out of Illinois seems to fit the mold of the point guard type QB that they want from Bryce. That'd make an apples to apples situation that could make coaching and game planning easy. On the other hand North Dakota State's Cole Payton could be an intriguing choice as well as a big dual threat guy. Both could be there for our fourth pick or both could be gone. Will QBs continue to slide this season like last? Who knows?
