WHY!?
wtf
​
Edit: Okay, looking into it maybe it’s just for 2 weeks. I googled “NHL loaned to AHL” because I’ve never actually followed these things too closely and the results said: “The standard form of the loan lasts for 14 consecutive days. The player is sent to the AHL, plays in whatever games he’s assigned and then returns to the NHL at the end. His salary is paid as if he’s in the NHL, and the player counts against the salary cap and the 23-man roster limit.” Could this be what they are doing??
Giving Lockwood a look before a trade maybe?
Come back soon Mackie!
Booooo
Yikes. He looked so good. Something tells me there’s something brewing and this is just a formality while they work out a trade
Theyre clearly rotating a few guys in and out of the NHL to see who fits still. Keeps him hot while they figure it out. I hope he goes to the AHL and destroys. Two way contracts are cool
Mackie is going to be an amazing player no doubt but with his 2 games he was horrible defensively and Sourdif fitting the forechecking identity the team deploys. Not sure why this is such a surprise
