Geez...I'm hoping they have another month like January and manage to pull it off.

You still gotta worry about a player clearing waivers. From the PJStar today..... The Blues made four notable paperwork transactions - sending down to Peoria, and then immediately recalling - Woywitka, goaltender Hannu Toivonen, center-winger Yan Stastny and defenseman Erik Johnson. That means all f...

Each Clear Day roster consists of a maximum of 22 players. According to AHL by-laws, only those players listed on a team’s Clear Day roster are eligible to compete in the remainder of the AHL regular season and in the Calder Cup Playoffs, unless emergency conditions arise as a result of recall, in...

It's happened. Thank heavens.

The Rivermen sent goaltender Derek Gustafson down to ECHL Alaska after Sunday's Ace's game, and called up goaltender Marek Schwarz. Merek won all 6 of his games with the Aces ....the last 2 in a shoot out. Idaho. W 5-3 Stockton, W 5-3 Stockton, W 3-1 Las Vegas, W 4-3 Las Vegas, W 2-1 (SO) Las Vegas,...

The streak is over! Granted...it went to a shoot-out....but the Rivs take the win 4-3 over San Antonio. And Toivonen stops a penalty shot in the last minute of OT. There, the Rampage had the best chance of the night to secure two points when the team was awarded a penalty shot with just 28 seconds r...

With Toivonen in net Houston scores 7 in a row.
Rivs lose 7-1

Losing streak is now up to 7 games.

Peoria 7 ... Hamilton 2

GO RIVS!

Hellstrom scratched again tonight vs Hamilton.
What would the chances be of seeing him brought back as a forward?

Hellstrom's been a healthy scratch the past 3 (I think...2 for sure) games. Not sure the reason. None is being giving over the Riv's broadcast.

By the numbers... It was the third game in three nights for the Rivermen The Rivermen won their seventh straight road game, longest road streak of the season in the AHL It was Peoria’s season-high sixth straight victory overall Marks the 20th time in the last 24 games the club has earned points ht...

Peoria rookie Nikolay Lemtyugov, the highly skilled player NHL scouts project as a topsix forward at the next level, stunned both sides when, with Quad City holding a 2-0 lead, he pummeled surprised Flames defenseman Tim Ramholt in his first North American bout at 9:47 of the second period. Ramholt...

In a division where all 8 teams are playing over .500 hockey the Rivermen have now managed to claw their way up into the 4th spot with 43 points and a .597pct. That would be only 2 points away from the 3rd spot.

File this under YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME ...

So far, in Sundays game vs last place Iowa, the Rivermen managed 1 ...yes indeed that is O-N-E sog in the 2nd period. Unfrigginreal

Ok...the plea is out there. The Blues have got to do something about finding us another goalie or we are out of it. Beckford-Sue.... 3 goals on 7 shots Pulled @ 2:47 in the 1st period. Gotta be some kind of record. Kid might be an elite ECHL goalie, but is in waaaaaay over his head at the AHL level.

The Rivs are playing in a tough division for sure. If they were in the Western Conference / North Division the 31 points they have (before this evenings game) would be enough for 3rd place.
