Thanks. I like McArdle as a young roto player but this news leads to me stashing him on the farm for the season. I hate how in several cases there has been no news about a given player and suddenly he's being stashed on IR. Makes fantasy lineups tough to manage in deep leagues...

I'm glad Scheifele will start the season with the club. I hope they have him center the second line with Kane on the left.

I read somewhere that Kane Scheifele Wellwood would make up the second line. I'm guessing Wellwood will take the defensive faceoffs while Scheifs gets to work on improving on that in the offensive and neutral zone. I'm interested to see how a proposed Cormier Burmistrov Antropov third line will do.

This is going to change now that the Jets claimed Brett Maclean off waivers.

Yeah, I just noticed the MacLean news. Why did Phoenix put him on waivers? I'll admit, I don't know a lot about him, but he's produced nicely in the AHL, and seems to have developed steadily.

When a team is in such financial chaos and basically financed by the 29 opposing teams, player management can become a secondary priority. Not saying they're dogging it in Phoenix, but their management of key assets has been poor at best.

Cormier has been sent down to the AHL today.

That's kind of too bad. I thought he looked good as a third line energy/physical player with some skill. Can we assume that MacLean will get those 3rd line minutes now?

Antropov on the 3rd line is interesting. And yes, I'd imagine MacLean replaces Cormier.
