I was actually going to photoshop his head on both of the Natural Disasters (Earthquake and Typhoon aka Tugboat).

Lander actually outperformed Acton (albeit with better linemates) both in possession metrics and by eye. He was sent down because A.) he's young and giving him more minutes in OKC to build on how he ended last season could prove beneficial long term, B.) he's on a waiver-exempt two-way contract, and C.) Eakins wanted to stick with someone he knew well rather than a young, relatively unknown.

You might be the first person to say that Lander>acton.

I don't think it was mentioned or asked, but would Jones have to go through re-entry waivers if we need to call him up during the season?

I believe re entry waivers were cut from this CBA.

Do you mean no half price on re-entry waivers rule, or that we can assign him directly to the club without him needing to clear waivers?

Nope. They got rid of them, which is good news for both sides. Teams don't have to worry about losing their player and players don't need to be worried about being stuck in the AHL because the team doesn't want to lose the player.

Interesting, so Howson was saying yesterday Mac-T is still going to sit down with Jones, that he wasn't actually assigned to the Barons...

so next time jones gets called up, he goes straight to the oilers roster? and if he gets sent down again...he goes straight to okc roster? no more waiver process?

He has to go back on waivers to go back to OKC.

I mentioned that they might try trade him for another guy that clears waivers.

That's good news. It never made sense to me, especially if a player is assigned to the AHL before the regular season starts, why they would have to go through re-entry waivers. If he was sent down during the regular season, i could understand the re-entry waivers then.

Good blog... I wish it were true. In NL, if you have a v@gina and you're not fully-retarded, you're hired. If you have a schlong, you're (frank)ed.

Its frustrating but its a chicken-egg argument circle but I don't feel like getting further into it

No re entry waivers at all any more. Still would need to clear to go back.
