Bruins Continue Yo-Yo Act With Lefebvre

The Boston Bruins have once again called up Guillaume Lefebvre from the Providence Bruins.

The call-up is most likely due to the need for added muscle when playing the Cryers Flyers, who are still bitter that the Pittsburgh Penguins are a much better team.

Lefebvre has 1 assist and 42 penalty minutes in 5 games this season with Providence. Hopefully he punches Scott Hartnell's afro off.

The guy sure knows how to throw 'em:

Montreal Canadiens Send 5 More to Hamilton

The Montreal Canadiens announced today that five more players did not meet the NHL's height requirement and were sent down to their AHL affiliate, the Hamilton Bulldogs.

Forwards Benjamin Maxwell and Tom Pyatt, defensemen Yannick Weber and Mathieu Carle and goalie Curtis Sanford will join the Bulldogs, at least for the start of the season.

Bruins Send Hamill, Marchand Back to Providence

The Boston Bruins announced that they have assigned center Zach Hamill and forward Brad Marchand to their AHL affiliate in Providence. The move leaves Boston with 22 players on their roster with three days left before the season opener.

The demotion of Hamill and Marchand most likely means that Sobotka has made the team. Could this also mean that David Krejci is close to returning? We'll find out Thursday. For now, enjoy some Krejci hightlights from last season:

Maples Leafs Send Four Players to AHL

Toronto Maple Leafs president and GM announced today that the team has assigned forwards Alex Foster, Ryan Hamilton, Ben Ondrus and Andre Deveaux to their AHL affiliate, the Toronto Marlies.

Interesting to note that Nazem Kadri, Toronto's first round pick in this year's draft, is still with the big club.
