Another log on the fire

The Islanders put Jon Sim on waivers today, so there’s a chance he could be here for tomorrow’s game. It’s already a crowded house at forward for these guys.

It’s the first 15-game night in AHL history, so here’s one-fifteenth of the league’s lineups:

BRIDGEPORT
F: Colliton (A)-Bailey-Rakhshani
Svendsen-Ullstrom-Blight
Labelle-Hisey-Yablonski
Haley-Marcinko-Figren
(Bourbeau-scratch)
D: O’Neill-Klementyev
Katic-Reese (A)
Motherwell-Wotton (C)
G: Koskinen
Lawson

SPRINGFIELD
F: Calvert-Blunden (A)-Kubalik
Pandolfo-Frischmon (A)-Byers
Mayorov-D’Alvise-Filatov
Ratchuk-Tarnasky-Regner
(Murovich-scratch)
D: Sigalet-Savard
Holden-Goloubef
Moore-Guenin (A)
G: Wesslau
LeNeveu

R: R.Fraser. L: Simeon, Redding.

Edit, with thanks to Jamie Palatini and Ian Healy, to reflect that Figren is not in two places at once. That would be cool.

Both teams have one to scratch. But Jean Bourbeau and Tyler Murovich never stood up during line rushes, so I’ve got a guess. Edit2: Indeed, those are the two.

Bourbeau, by the way, out there in the full cage, is now wearing No. 20.

Talented young’n Nikita Filatov, who’d been banged up during the week, is apparently in for the Falcons.
