What happened to Cumiskey? Was he released? Still on the roster but not listed a scratch?

So after doing a bit of googling he's on the Blackhawks official roster, but not listed on NHL team roster. Was he inujured during camp or is the offiiclal Blackhawk website just slow in doing some housekeeping.

I know, right? -.- Maybe in case someone picks up Bickell? lol

It's a no win for Bick, either he gets waived and send down eventually, or he plays so well that he actually gets his trade value back up and they trade him.

I got the lines from the official NHL site directly, so I have no idea why Cumiskey wasn't on the roster. Maybe he was sent down to Rockford?

He's listed as an UFA on official Blackhawk player tracker, looks like they just released him. NHLPA site doesn't have him in the data base.

It's probably a good thing that I've gotta work until 6ish this evening, otherwise I'd be adding to my already outstanding credit card balance by throwing a pair of SRO tickets to tonight's game on there. Next time, for sure.

Enjoy it if you're gonna be there. I'll be eating and drinking all night tonight in celebration.

Why wait until tonight? Didn't you bring a flask to work? Come on man, it's opening night!!

My job involves dealing with high school kids. If I was on booze I'd find it real hard to resist the overwhelming urge to punch them.

Bickell was waived, but no one claimed him - technically he can be sent down without going through waivers again I think - I think that the only reason that he is playing is to continue to (maybe in vain) showcase him for some hoped for trade - probably also the reason Pokka is on the NHL roster ... I think - but who knows - I only know that no one wanted Bickell off of waivers -which means if they do want to move him sooner rather than later it has to be with some additional incentives.

Personally I don't think he has a role on the team any longer - and his hit could be better used spread around. Granted he played most of last season in the lower 6 forward groups, which would limit ice time -but he never really did a lot of anything to stand out even down there - sure he hit a lot of guys during the playoffs and then got vertigo ... not exactly recreating anything near 2013's run ... not a 4 million plus dollar guy really.

Bickell can be sent back down for like 10 days, that's it.

Pokka is probably on the roster because they can afford to have him up to get him some NHL experience time while Rozi is on LTIR, once Rozi is healthy he'll probably be swapped again for Svedberg.

This banner raising is so lame. Act like you've been there before and just go and play the game.

Losers.
