JJ and tedenby sent to albany

[TheRobotDevil]

would have liked to see them make the team but LL also said that doesnt mean they wont be back up.Looks like Urbom and taeromina may have made the team.also the devs waived davison not sure if that pulls his 500k off the cap or not said he was on a one way contract but didnt specify if it was pros or minors and didnt say if it comes off or not.

found an intresting comment in tgs blog about the kids going to aIbany.



"If they put Salvador and Salmela on LTIR and Davison is sent down, they are under the cap by $84,168 with 20 players.

If they sign Mair for $500,000 and drop any player, they’d still be under.

dont know how true it is but definitely interesting it also would give lou a little leverage and open up allot of possibilities imo.

I just ran this on Cap geek. Below is the roster the Devils still have in camp MINUS MAIR, because he still isn't signed, and with Salvador and Salmela removed if they are on LTIR.

Keep in mind that the alignment posted on fire and ice leaves the Devils 1 forward short and 1 defensemen over.

I was pretty surprised to see both JJ and Tedenby be sent down. I sure as hell hope at least JJ gets back up soon. JJ>Pelley

 

[devs30rko]

SHOCKED that JJ was sent down

 

[Devs_Jets_Yanks27]

SHOCKED that JJ was sent down

Agreed 100%. I know I have to hold my tongue, because there's still moves to be accomplished (waivers, LTIR, trades)

 

[devs30rko]

i think he is going to be back still....

think. no one was put on waivers today, and like TG said, that takes 24 hours for someone to clear or be claimed. if lou can't get a trading partner for zubes or langs, he will NEED to waive somone.


sending josefson and tedenby along w corrente down, then putting sal on LTIR gets you under the cap for now.

then you make your big moves by friday, you bring up the player(s) you will actually have on opening night.

 

[MCDevils]

This is the fastest way for Lou to get under the cap..

 

[TheRobotDevil]

Pretty sure Davidson was put on waivers.I still kind of think jj will be up being as they are one fd short and one dman over.seems almost like ll is deciding between Taormina an urbom.either way ll is putting himself in good position.

 

[SJ20]

A little upset by this. They shall return. Pumped about Urbom!

 

[devs30rko]

This is the fastest way for Lou to get under the cap..

EXACTLY.

like you've said in a few threads now.. this leaves us w/ 11 forwards

the more i look at it the more i'm almost EXPECTING at least josefson to be back up by friday.

i just can't see mair being on the 3rd line.

I'll echo what everyone has already said. I am taking a wait and see approach with this. This is certainly not the end of the wheeling and dealing from Lou.
