The Montreal Canadiens placed Chris Terry on waivers this morning. Meanwhile, the Philadelphia Flyers’ forward Boyd Gordon clears waivers. Both were first reported by ESPN’s Pierre LeBrun. Gordon was subsequently assigned to the AHL Lehigh Valley Phantoms.
The Flyers forward Boyd Gordon has struggled to make a mark in Philadelphia this year. He has only one goal in 13 games, and is on track for his second straight season without achieving double-digit points. Last season Boyd scored 2G and 2A in 65 games for the Arizona Coyotes. The move coincides with the Flyers officially activating defenseman Mark Streit from the long-term injured reserve list.
The Canadiens forward Chris Terry has fared better. In 14 games with the big club, Terry has tallied 2G and 2A, alongside 26 points in 20 AHL games. Terry is merely a victim of scarce roster sports as both Alex Galchenyuk and Andrew Shaw return to the Canadiens lineup tonight. Because of Terry’s excellent AHL numbers, expect to see him back in Montreal soon.
Sorry to nitpick grammar, but I’m curious why you use a definite article to describe the players? “The Flyers forward Boyd Gordon/The Canadiens forward Chris Terry” is extremely awkward phrasing. It should be “Flyers forward Boyd Gordon”, or “The Canadiens’ Chris Terry”.
don’t be an ass these guys work hard
He doesn’t seem to be acting like an ass in his comment. He seemed polite with his question. I mean, if he was ripping into them, I would probably side with you, but he wasn’t. Also pretty sure the idea of them not working hard to write these articles wasn’t even mentioned in Stormies post, so no idea why you felt the need to bring it up.
