There was some movement over the long Thanksgiving break a couple players were reassigned to Toledo (ECHL) from Rockford (AHL). In the last week defensemen Jonathan Carlsson and J.C. Sawyer along with goaltender Alec Richards were returned to the Walleye.

Richards stole a few starts from Corey Crawford in his time with the IceHogs. In two games in the AHL, Richards was 1-1-0 with a goals-against average of 2.54.

In related news, the IceHogs signed veteran goaltender Dan Cloutier to a professional try-out agreement. I don’t know much of what happens in Rockford, but Crawford can’t get a start.
