The San Jose Sharks have claimed defenseman Ty Emberson off waivers from the New York Rangers.

With Lukas Reichel, Arvid Soderblom and Alex Vlasic ready to make the push for a full-time roster spot in Chicago, Blackhawks general manager Kyle Davidson feels confident that the three can find their way onto the team after their development stint in Rockford. 

Ryan Craig had never been a head coach before now, but he has plenty of AHL experience to draw on as he begins his new job leading the Henderson Silver Knights.

Having undergone season-ending surgery as the Rochester Americans began the Calder Cup Playoffs, Brandon Biro had a tough time watching his teammates compete. But he never lost his competitiveness.

For Alex Barre-Boulet, the time is now. He is in his sixth training camp with Tampa Bay, entering each having built a more impressive AHL resume. And while has yet to stick on the Lightning roster, this is perhaps his best chance yet.
