Per the
Bridgeport Sound Tigers, “Injury Update: Sound Tigers D Calvin de Haan
is out for the season with a dislocated left shoulder.”
Calvin deHaan was drafted by the Islanders in the first round of the 2009 NHL entry draft with the 12th overall selection. In the 2011-12 season for Bridgeport, he had 2 and 16 for 18 pts in 56 games. In the first 3 games this season, deHaan had two assists.
Top Islanders
defensive prospect, Calvin deHaan dislocated his left shoulder in a 3-2
win against the Penguins on Saturday that will force him to miss the remainder
of the 2012-13 season. deHaan was said
to be a threat to compete for a spot on the Islanders blue line this
season. Although highly skilled,
deHaan’s development has been hindered by recurring shoulder injuries in three
of the last four seasons. Not a good
indicator for deHaans promising NHL career.
When I spoke to Calvin deHaan at the draft party this summer, he was very excited for the upcoming season and was really looking forward to impress management. He was emphatic about his desire to play for the Islanders.
Isles Notes:
Per Randi
Marshall, “Mangano telling folks press conference in "coming days"
on Isles and arena plan... But I've heard nothing so far. Checking
further.” Ed Mangano tweeted, “I will
be holding a press conference in the coming days to announce my plans to
generate jobs at the Hub and retain the Islanders.”
The
announcement should reveal who won the hub contract and what the plans for
development are for the site. Not sure
keeping the Islanders in NVMC is on the table.
Per
NHLhistorygirl, “On this date in 1949, the originator of the playoff beard,
Butch Goring was born in St. Boniface, MB.”
On this date in
1974, forward Miroslav Satan was born in Topolcany, SVK.

NHL Notes:
Pierre LeBrun
reports, “Spoke with a team exec who says there's either a labor deal this week
or there's no season. Not sure it's that clear-cut but who knows.” No meetings have been scheduled as of yet.
Darren Dreger
says Thursday is the drop dead date for the 2012-13 NHL season.
