Alec Richards Recalled By Rockford

December 4th, 2009 by Leigh Michael Dengis

The Rockford IceHogs recalled Alec Richards from Toledo this morning. He will join the team in Grand Rapids for tonight’s game. This will be his second stint with the IceHogs this season, and was reassigned to Toledo about a week ago.

Mark Bernard, IceHogs GM, has been actively looking to replace Corey Crawford as he recovers from a lower-body injury – he has been shutdown since November 13th. Joe Fallon has done a great with the increased workload with Crawford out (2.30GAA; 0.924SV%). He will be the primary goalie while Crawford sidelined.

Just five days ago the IceHogs signed veteran goalie Dan Cloutier to a professional try-out agreement, and now Richards is back in the mix. With the addition of two more goalies in Rockford it might mean Crawford could be out of commission longer then expected.

Three Returned To Toledo Last Week

November 30th, 2009 by Leigh Michael Dengis

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.
