L’Heureux getting sent down a bit suprising.
I will be very surprised if L’Heureux is not on the opening night rosters along with Perreault in the Big Apple.
Looks like some teams may be carrying some toughness for opening night. Imama in Pittsburgh, Viel in Boston, Douglas in Utah, McIlrath in Washington
What major bust Fabian Lysell has been just another garbage draft pick from the pathetic Sweeney and Neely era should have been fired yrs ago
