And then there were 22
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Hope you’re ready for some rookies. The Thrashers made their final cuts this morning, and the four openings are all going to rookies. Bryan Little, Brett Sterling, Tobias Enstrom and Mark Popovic all made the team. Meanwhile Jordan LaVallee, Boris Valabik, Joel Kwiatkowski, Darren Haydar, Colin Stuart and Ondrej Pavelec were all optioned to Chicago (AHL). I’ll post more later after talking to Bob Hartley and the players, but I wanted to get this out there. What do you think of the decisions?
EDIT: Also, the Blackhawks claimed defenseman Karel Pilar off waivers, so the Thrashers lose some depth on the blue line..
