Congratulations to Drew MacIntyre for being voted into the AHL All-Star game's Canadian squad! The All Star game is on January 27th and should be broadcast on Sportsnet, for those interested.
In other news, Nathan McIver has been recalled to the Vancouver Canucks as defenseman Mattias Ohlund is suffering from post-concussion syndrome issues and isn't expected back in the near future. Congratulations to McIver for earning the call-up, bottom pairing defensemen Lukas Krajicek and Mike Weaver will have to be stepping up their game if they don't want to see Nathan McIver. Here's hoping Alain Vigenault gives McIver a chance!
The Moose are set to square off against a rare mid-morning match-up later today against the Houston Aeros. Thus far this season, the Moose have had little luck with Texas teams, with the Aeros having come out on top in their 2 previous meetings this season.
For those wondering why this game is so bloody early in the morning, it's because the Aeros are having a special schoolchildren game for kids. Apparently it's an annual event, having run for 5 years in a row now. Nice to see that hockey is making such huge inroads into the American public school system. Cough.
