Have been since I joined the site last month...

Few post-game comments from AV.

• Is Brass out, “He’s out…posterior’s (laughing) inflamed. He is day to day.”
• Pyatt and Pouliot back in, “Yes… and with Ash that is 12 healthy forwards.”
• On McIlrath, “I talked yesterday with Ken in Hartford and we talked about the possibility of calling up a defensemen and his name came up. He felt that the way Dylan has played defensively, penalty killing that he was the guy to call up. He had been improving since we sent him down and if we wanted any of his defensemen, he was the one to call up. You trust the coach and we called him up.”
