X. Benedict Posted April 26, 2011 Report Share Posted April 26, 2011 I had read that Foligno would join Portland after his OHL team was eliminated. Anyone know what happened? I've been wondering about that. I think Foligno has one more year of junior eligibility (he's just 19)....so that may have weighed into it.

I think Foligno has one more year of junior eligibility (he's just 19)....so that may have weighed into it. He'll be two years removed from his draft this year, so they have to sign him or lose him. It doesn't seem like too many are signed and then returned to juniors as an overage player. The teams are only allowed to carry 3 20 year olds.

Weave Posted April 26, 2011 Report Share Posted April 26, 2011 I'm pretty sure he can join the team with a PTO and still be elligible to go back to juniors if he has any junior time left. Someone correct me if I'm wrong here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone correct me if I'm wrong here. He needs an NHL contract by June or he goes back into the draft. That doesn't stop him from going back to juniors as an overaged player though (unless the CHL has some rule about that which I'm unaware of).

LabattBlue Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 Silver lining in tonight's loss...Portland's run to the Calder Cup just got a lot stronger.

After that game last night, I'm way too lazy to go digging into the specifics, but I believe Gragnani may have to clear waivers to be sent down. Don't quote me on that one though.

korab rules Posted May 3, 2011 Report Share Posted May 3, 2011 Pirates walking the plank in Binghamton Special to Maine Hockey Journal by Tom Robinson Link>>>> Any word on how Kassian is doing? According to the box score he had 2 SOG and 2 PIMs and had a +/- of 0 in a 6-1 loss, so he must have been doing something right. I don't see TOI for him though. Can you weigh in on this, Wildcat?
