Gragnani may finally get a shot! I've wanted to see what he can do at the NHL level for a while.

Why is he being called up? I wasn't aware of injuries to our blueline.

He'll probably play on the PP a lot, fill in as every few shifts as a defenseman, and get a few minutes on the 4th line every night. I LOVE this move. He probably would have made some noise out of TC if he hadn't been injured.

I'm relatively certain he's played some forward, yeah. I think he'll probably do what we've done with Sekera several times - play a few minutes as a forward and defenseman, and be a PP specialist.

Interesting...Man, does this weaken our forward group. Excited to see what he can do though, especially on the PP.

Yeah, Stafford has an injured groin.

Maybe Grags starts on D while Sekera moves to forward.

Maybe we'll put Sekra-Butler-Grags all on a forward line... it can be a D-Forward line... hahahahahaha

Grags has been playing forward in Portland, and is currently tied for second on the team in points.

He'll be fine up front. A safer option than Reggie to be sure.

Haha. I looked at the list of folks they were discussing as possible call ups. Saw his name and wrote it off because I thought he was a D-man. I figured it would be Ellis. WRONG.
