He will replace Tyson Sexsmith for the November 29th game in Medicine Hat vs Russia. Good for Holtby as he has been very good on a less than average Blades squad over the past 2 seasons. While we are on the subject of goaltending, I think it is time to give Matthew Krahn a look for the team and find a Junior A team for Zemlak to actually get some action with this season. It is obvious that Zemlak won't be in the Blades long term plans so why not let him play this season instead of wasting a year of his development.

Also with the teams struggles, it is only a matter of time before a few other young players are called up for the season while some veterans may find themselves out of the lineup for good. A few names that come to mind are Braid, Belyk who are both 18 and aren't offering too much at this point.

That's good news...that's a change, well good to see a Blade there, him being my favourite one helps. It's been a good series so far, I'll be sure to watch when he starts.

PS: is it just me or do other people like his mask from last year better?
