Opportunity for Oystrick, or Valabik?
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Thursday’s news that Zach Bogosian is probably out about six weeks with a broken leg didn’t immediately lead to a call up from Chicago. The Thrashers could conceivably stick with their current roster, depending on the play of Nathan Oystrick.
If Oystrick plays well, there’s no hurry to get another defenseman on the roster. So a guy with one career NHL game is about to become an everyday player. I’ll probably have more on him in Saturday’s paper.
Meanwhile, Boris Valabik played Wednesday night like a guy who smelled an opportunity. He had a goal, two assists and a plus-four rating as the Wolves blanked Providence 6-0. They were his first goal and assists of the season. Arturs Kulda is plus-six for the season.
