The Philadelphia Flyers announced that they've
loaned forward Brayden Schenn and defenseman Kevin
Marshall to the Adirondack Phantoms, according
to Flyers General Manager Paul Holmgren. The Phantoms
also announced that they've recalled defenseman
Cullen Eddy from the ECHL's Greenville Road Warriors.
Schenn, 20, comes back to the Phantoms after an
early-season offensive explosion with Adirondack,
when he compiled four goals and four assists in
four games, including his first professional hat
trick, on October 14 against Bridgeport. Getting
called up to Philadelphia on October 19 and playing
four games with the Flyers, Schenn suffered an
injury against Montreal on October 26, which has
kept him out of action for the last month. One
of hockey's top prospects, Schenn came to the
Flyers along with Wayne Simmonds via a trade with
the Los Angeles Kings last summer. The native
of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan was drafted by Los
Angeles in the first round (fifth overall) in
the 2009 NHL Entry Draft. Schenn played in nine
games NHL games with the Kings and had seven points
(3g, 4a) in seven games with the club's AHL affiliate,
the Manchester Monarchs. Schenn starred again
in Major Juniors in 2010-11 with Saskatoon registering
53 points (21g, 32a) in only 27 games and also
was a leader on the World Juniors Championships
Team Canada squad winning tournament MVP honors
and recording 18 points.
Marshall, 22, comes back to the Phantoms after
playing 14:11 in his NHL debut on Monday night
against the Carolina Hurricanes. Marshall is Adirondack's
all-time leader in games played with 168. Marshall
has six goals and 18 assists in his career with
the Phantoms, including a goal in the team's 2011-12
Opening Night win over the Connecticut Whale.
A product of Boucherville, Quebec; Marshall played
for the Lewiston MAINEiacs and Quebec Remparts
over four seasons in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey
League.
Eddy, 23, played in 12 games with Greenville and
led Road Warrior defensemen with three goals,
eight assists and 11 points. A 6-foot, 195-pound
blueliner from Hidden Valley, Pennsylvania, Eddy
started the 2011-12 season with the Phantoms and
registered an assist in two games. Last season,
Eddy had 10 points (3g, 7a) in 47 games with the
Phantoms, and four points (1g, 3a) and a +2 rating
with Greenville. He netted his first professional
goal against the South Carolina Stingrays on October
29, 2010. Eddy started his pro career by playing
seven regular-season and eight playoff games for
Cincinnati (ECHL) towards the end of the 2009-10
season, skating with the Cyclones during their
run to a Kelly Cup Championship. Eddy turned pro
following a four-year collegiate career at Mercyhurst
College (AHA) in Erie, Pennsylvania. He laced
up his skates in 144 games for the Lakers and
accumulated nine goals, 40 assists and 322 penalty
minutes.
The Phantoms wish a happy welcome back to Brayden,
Kevin and Cullen!
