Sens Sign Pat Cannone- Recall Five

The Ottawa Senators have dipped into the NCAA free agent pool again, as they are expected to ink Miami University forward Pat Cannone.

Cannone had 14 goals and 37 points this season with Miami.

Cannone is expected to report to Binghamton and join the team down there for their upcoming playoff run. This seems like a depth move more than anything that should help the AHL team if injuries strike. The Murray's have done a great job putting that AHL team in a position to go on a run in this year's playoffs.

Should be interesting to see how they do.

(UPDATE 10:03 AM) The Sens have also recalled five players from Bingo for the game against the Habs tonight. Andre Benoit, Erik Condra, Colin Greening, David Hale and Derek Smith are all expected to be in the line up.

Good see Murray signing depth for Bingo, When this team gets healthy and players from the Sens are sent down this team looks like it could go deep. Interesting signing in Pat Cannone, I watched Notre Dame vs Miami yesterday and wasnt really paying attention to him. So chirp where does he fit in the bingo depth chart?

Pat Cannone is not eligible to play in BSENS playoff games. Only eligible to play in remaining regular season games.

Quoting Sens_Kumar:

But what if injuries occur.. which they have.. I assume they can replace players if not enough healthy bodies from the clear day roster.. can they not?

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 2010-11 AHL regular season and in the 2011 Calder Cup Playoffs, unless emergency conditions arise as a result of recall, injury or suspension.

Teams may also add signed draft choices and players signed to amateur tryout contracts, provided that their respective Junior seasons are complete.

Supposedly this last bit also applies to NCAA players.
