Springfield pregame (updated)

To save a bunch of commenters saying “Olson was traded to Houston,” summary of the day so far, and we’ll tack lineups on here around 6:45 with anything else in between:

–Benn Olson to the Aeros for future considerations. He’d barely played here since the new year, and with the bodies coming back, it didn’t look as if he was going to play much, either. So, probably good for both parties.

–The team let Dallas Jackson go from his PTO.

–Columbus called up Greenwich’s Cam Atkinson, so Bridgeport will miss him tonight. Or maybe Springfield will miss him. Whoever’s running the CBJ Twitter feed has been answering questions all day. Some of the responses are priceless; Some of the questions, even more.

More after a car ride.

More after the car ride: Bridgeport made official three more AHL contracts, Kael Mouillierat, Scott Howes and Jon Landry. They’ll all be eligible for the Sound Tigers’ Clear Day list on March 5.

Neither Calvin de Haan nor Mark Katic will play tonight. If you do the math on all the ins and outs and suspension and guys-who-didn’t-practice this week, you’re left with 18 skaters for Bridgeport. That’s apparently who’s in tonight. We’ll toss the lineups up after warmup. Which, if I remember that the game’s at 7:30 instead of 7, will be around 7:15.

And here they are.

Springfield doesn’t put the letters on their warmup jerseys. I’ll add them if I can.

Bridgeport released Riley Gill tonight.
