After finishing up an eight-game homestand, the St. John’s IceCaps are starting February on the road. They’ll play three games in three nights, a gruelling schedule that is the hallmark of the American Hockey League.
Thankfully, the IceCaps will be heading into these games with a healthy roster that includes 16 forwards and eight defenceman, so the team will be able to distribute the workload over the three-game weekend.
With the Montreal Canadiens returning to full health, Daniel Carr and Zach Redmond have been re-assigned to the IceCaps, which will help to bolster the team. This meant a surplus of forwards, therefore earlier on Friday the Canadiens released John McCarron from his PTO.
