Really sad to hear. I wish him the best. I had him as a dark horse.

He just needed an opportunity to play. His ceiling is NHL third pair strong offensively but needed to learn how to play defense in AHL. Too many other dman prospects and he looses out. Tuulola might later have same fate. II suspect GM's get fed up when players are injury prone. I would guess that with the heavy euro scouting, an organizational spot for the 50 or so players goes from Snuggerud to a newbie. Next: pass on Edjsell imho

imminent trade? Otherwise, why do it?
- TrueGrit


Possible. This Snuggerud move seems very timely. Otherwise he could have waited until the end of the year for them to decide on his future.

Sounds like Snuggerud might be done and the Hawks maybe forced this decision earlier to give them more room to take on extra players at the deadline.

Maybe they have something specific in mind.

2 non-playoff teams... makes sense.

Should be lots of this in the next couple weeks.

Yes. This will be for the purpose of a buyout. Really tough luck with injuries for the kid.

This frees up a spot on the 50 man roster. Gives Hawks more flexibilty.

How does that work, didn’t think you could just terminate a contract at any time?

Where do you get that info? You are a knowledgeable contributor on the board so I will believe you have access to that information. I know couple of posters over the years on this board were on the inside or had access to some info. Of course if your info is privaledged and you cannot say how you access it, that"s cool

Sounds like it may be mutual. Not sure Snuggerud can play anymore with this stringnof injuries. His last ine was real bad... he had to be stretchered off.

I can see the Hawks giving him a "role" or some side money after termination.

Charlie R. Posted this on Twitter.

The scouts in attendance usually come from the media as they can see who's on the list in the press boxes up there.

Horrible to hear the severity of his injuries. Really sad.

I really hope they do something like that for him. That would be awesome to hear.

Blues had two great looking goaltenders on their farm club: Bishop and Allen

Maybe next year both are former Blues. Someone on this board said Binnington has ripened on the farm club and is NHL worthy. Allen is inconsistent and injury prone.seemingly all the time.

Over the years, I'm old i can't remember who specifically, but just never saw him as good. Then the Blues just looked like the Hawks D on that 3rd goal, brutal

There's a seating chart in the press box. Anyone in the media could take the info and spread it around.
