Will you be going to game tonight causing them to lose again?

I am going again tomorrow with my pops.... maybe T-Roz will just skate to center ice, take a massive shit on the center dot, and then skate back to the locker room as the announcer lets us know the Hawks have forfeited this one?

Chris Kuc @ChrisKuc Follow Guessing #Blackhawks will make a move after tonight's game vs. Panthers involving their defensemen. Trevor van Riemsdyk likely activated.

TVR sent down. Makes sense since he is the only Dman who can move freely between AHL/NHL

Glad for TVR. Was really impressed with him before the injury.

ClydeLee · Feb 25, 2015

It's so he can get some games down there when he can play to get back into the flow.

It's basically a conditioning assignment.

Here's hoping VanReimsLesbian's conditioning stint works wonders.

Agreed - but I have a hard time believing that the Blackhawks are willing to carry 9 dmen on their roster. Kane's LTIR status frees up some cap space and Oduya is currently injured but something will likely have to happen before TVR is back up at the NHL level.

See ya Erixson!

Care to elaborate?

He's the odd man out when TVR is back up from Rockford.

Aren't they limited under the new-CBA how many times they can DFA a player, even if he has a two-way contract? I know it doesn't have any bearing in this particular instance, just curious is all.

I'm a bit confused by your question. A two-way contract has nothing to do with being able to send a player down, it simply has to do with the amount that they earn in the AHL versus NHL.

Popinski Soda · Feb 25, 2015

I thought a two-way contract meant you were able to send the NHL-player in question down to the AHL without him having to clear waivers first?

It is not. Unfortunately, Cap Geek did a nice job of describing it but I am sure you can look up the exact rules somewhere. Being waiver eligible is based on your age and time of service in the league. A two way contract means you get paid differently in the AHL/NHL - a one way contract means that player earns the same in both the AHL/NHL.

Hawkswritter is correct it has nothing to do with being able to send a guy to the farm or not. Its all about $$$. One way contract means the player will make the same amount of money playing in the AHL or NHL. Two way contract has pay difference between AHL and NHL.

I used to think it had to do with sending players down or not also, I think a lot of us fans get that one incorrect.

Well if I have to do my own homework, count me out.
