Long day on the course=short post

A new Sound Tiger… er, probably non-Sound Tiger… on Twitter.

Draft on Friday. Phil is out in Pittsburgh to help handle it for the Isles, and native Dylan Reese gives him a hand. (Ask my Dad about the Duquesne Incline sometime.)

The Norfolk-Syracuse/Tampa-Anaheim affiliation swap is complete, and the Admirals announced they’ll have Trent Yawney and Marty Wilford running their bench, which is a triumphant return home for those two.

SYR Trent Yawney-a (6/21) —*

a-Affiliation swap between Norfolk and Syracuse, Anaheim and Tampa Bay. *-Presumably this is Jon Cooper’s if he doesn’t get an NHL job.

And there’s an NHL schedule. My bet is it’ll change before they play a game.
