Before I sit down to type up a bit on Coach Skalde’s responses at this weeks Coach’s Show here’s a little more news coming out of the Cyclones camp.
– The Cyclones signed Todd Orlando to a contract on Tuesday. Listed at 6’7″ 225lbs Orlando definitely adds size to the Cyclones line up. Absent from hockey since 2008, time will tell if he can still play. A quick look at his stat page indicates the guy collects penalty minutes like kids collect candy on Halloween. Todd was not in action for Wednesday’s lose to Florida.
– According to the AHL’s transaction page the Pittsburgh Penguins have reassigned Casey Pierro-Zabotel from Wheeling to Cincinnati. That is all the information I have on this right now. As soon as I hear anything more I’ll be sure to pass it on.
Update:
According to Shawn Rine, who cover the Nailers for The Intelligencer, the trade has been confirmed by Pittsburgh and the trade went through Nashville.
Update:
Rine is now reporting via Twitter that the deal involves Christiaan Minella and Sam D’Agostino.
