“This is a chance to see how far some of the guys have come and how they measure up to players with AHL and NHL contracts. This is the opportunity that every player wants, so he can prove he is willing to go the extra mile. I’m excited to go to Providence and see how our players perform," said Head Coach Jeff Pyle.
Stander (Syracuse), Bligh (Syracuse), Malatesta (Toronto) and Forney (San Diego) all have previous AHL experience, while Corbett and Hannoun will all be experiencing the AHL level for the first time.
