The Lightning have recalled Left wing Ryan Craig and RW Darren Reid from the Springfield Falcons for tonight’s game versus the Detroit Red Wings. Craig is the Falcons captain and leading scorer (with 12 goals). One has to assume that the call ups are tied to an injury Ruslan Fedotenko sustained during Thursday’s win against Phoenix, as well as Evegny Artyhukin’s possible suspension for bad officiating and idiotic-Coyote-retaliations…

In an amusing note, Joe Tasca of Tasca’s Take has a lot of love for AHL hockey and has a lot of love for Mr. Reid (sic)… (Compliments to Joe for the photo).

Don’t know how well it works or how much it will be used but there is now a poll on the upper left navigation menu… The current poll focuses on referees and I feel like I left out a lot of options and a lot of aggrivations with refs…

Consider this the official thread to discuss the issue… Voice support, voice discontent, etc..
