Being the resident Northeast Ohioan on the Cannon staff, I have taken on the role of providing some coverage of the Columbus Blue Jackets AHL affiliate, the Cleveland Monsters. I am well aware it’ll be tough to follow up the superb Monsters coverage provided by Elaine Shircliff, but I’ll do my best to keep you all up to speed on what’s going on up I-71 once a month.
The Monsters should have a very competitive team this year considering the amount of NHL talent they have on the roster. Lots of familiar faces will be taking the ice at the Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse this year, including Liam Foudy, Kevin Stenlund, Gavin Bayreuther and Gabriel Carlsson to name a few.
