Per ECHL Transactions, the Milwaukee Admirals have signed forward Matt White from the Manchester Monarchs of the ECHL to a PTO contract. This news comes at the midnight hour less than twelve-hours removed from the report that Stevie Moses has been placed on unconditional waivers by the Nashville Predators.
White enters the Admirals locker room having never played a game at the AHL level. His career started with the Omaha Lancers of the United States Hockey League (USHL). In his last season with the Lancers he was named the USA Hockey Junior Player of the Year (2009-10). He played with the Lancers for three-seasons before making the leap up to play at the collegiate level with the University of Nebraska-Omaha. His college playing career also lasted for three-seasons and he would join the Los Angeles Kings ECHL affiliate the Ontario Reign to start his professional playing career as an undrafted free agent signing for the 2013-14 season.
Following White’s first pro playing season he left ECHL hockey and went overseas to play for Olimpija Ljubljana in Austria. That experiment was short lived and he returned back to the Kings’ ECHL affiliate after a less than two-month stay abroad. He’s remained part of the Kings ECHL setup all the way through to this season when the Kings swapped their affiliate’s league standing this summer as part of the AHL Pacific Division movement. His 2015-16 season has been spent with the Manchester Monarchs.
In total, White has 158 games of ECHL experience and produced 139 points (60 goals, 79 assists). His brief professional stint in Austria wasn’t too poor, either. He logged 6 points (2 goals, 4 assists) in 11 games with Olimpija Ljubljana.
White is tied for the fifth most points scored in the ECHL this season with 22 points (10 goals, 12 assists) in 19 games for the Monarchs. As far as bringing momentum with him his month of November was terrific. He had only scored an assist in 4 games during October. In a hectic 15 games played in November he picked up the rest of his points total after not scoring in the first game of the month. Quite impressive. The hope now for the Admirals and for White is to have that same level of play spill into the AHL.
Are you surprised or excited that the Milwaukee Admirals have made a PTO signing of someone new rather than a familiar face such as a Zach Budish or a Gary Steffes?

It appears the Stevie Moses experiment is about to come to an end. Elliotte Friedman reports that the forward has been placed on unconditional waivers by the Nashville Predators.
Steve Moses on unconditional waivers. Must be going back to KHL
At the time I didn’t give too much thought on the matter because, well, Moses was still here in North America playing AHL hockey with the Milwaukee Admirals. As it turns out that report was a sign of smoke and today we see the fire behind it.
Moses was signed by the Predators in early-April on the heels of a dazzling season playing for Jokerit in the KHL. He lead the league in goal scoring in the KHL last season with 36 goals in 60 games. He didn’t make the Predators roster out of camp while his comparable winger that was already in the system, Viktor Arvidsson, did. Even with starting his season off in the NHL Arvidsson would return to the Milwaukee Admirals and outshine Moses in the scoring department at the AHL level. It was clear that the offensive production that the Predators were hoping to see replicated one-season after tearing up the KHL wasn’t happening. Moses scored 8 points (2 goals, 6 assists) in 16 games for the Admirals while generating less than 2 shots on goal per game.
For me, this was always going to be a low-risk and high-reward signing. I didn’t understand why you would need a Moses when you already had an Arvidsson, a Miikka Salomäki, or a Kevin Fiala waiting in the wings – literally. But, after some thinking, this was a depth move that generated great in-house competition in pre-season camp reminding everyone, including Moses, that spots on the roster are earned and not inherited based on reputation, status, or where you were selected in the draft.
It was clear listening to Moses during his interview on Penalty Box Radio three-weeks ago that he was accountable for what was going on. It’s well worth listening to that full-interview because he was open and honest about what was going on all the way down to when he violated team rules and was suspended for a game by the coaching staff. He was upset with himself for how things were going and battling to do what he could to contribute to the Admirals as best he could.
While plenty would look directly at the goal column for Moses I would say that watching him play with the Admirals has been enjoyable. Just because a goal scorer isn’t scoring doesn’t mean his play shutdown in other areas of the ice. His defensive work rate was arguably better than his offensive work rate. If the Moses experiment stops here it goes down for most as a failure. I mark it as its labeled. It was an experiment.
What did you think of Stevie Moses’ time under the Nashville Predators banner? With Moses now expected to be gone: what do the Milwaukee Admirals do as far as bringing in forward depth? Are you concerned that the Admirals are getting so thinned out that the success of November is about to tank?

After taking home the illustrious Admirals Roundtable “Admiral of the Month” Award for November it was only fitting for Viktor Arvidsson‘s outstanding performance this month to be recognized by the league itself. Arvidsson was just announced as the CCM/AHL Player of the Month for November.
SPRINGFIELD, Mass. … The American Hockey League announced today that Milwaukee Admirals right wing Viktor Arvidsson, San Diego Gulls defenseman Brandon Montour and Toronto Marlies goaltender Garret Sparks have been selected as the league’s award winners for November..
Arvidsson, the CCM/AHL Player of the Month, tallied six goals and eight assists for 14 points in 11 games for Milwaukee during the month, helping the Admirals move to the top of the Central Division standings.
Milwaukee put together a 10-game winning streak to open the month, with Arvidsson finding the scoresheet in each contest. He had an assist in a 3-0 win at Iowa on Nov. 5 and scored a goal in a 3-1 victory over Lake Erie on Nov. 6 before assisting on the game-winning goal in a 3-2 overtime decision at Rockford on Nov. 7. Arvidsson tallied the game-winner again in a 3-1 triumph at Charlotte on Nov. 14, then notched his first multi-point game of the season with a goal and two assists vs. Chicago on Nov. 18. He had two assists in a 3-1 win over San Diego on Nov. 21, then extended his scoring streak to 13 games – the longest in the AHL this season – with a pair of goals in Milwaukee’s 6-3 victory over San Antonio on Nov. 24. Arvidsson finished the month in the NHL, skating for Nashville on Nov. 28 vs. Buffalo.
A fourth-round selection by the Nashville Predators in the 2014 NHL Entry Draft, the 22-year-old Arvidsson has totaled seven goals and 10 assists for a team-leading 17 points in 14 games for Milwaukee, while adding one goal in five NHL games for Nashville. He is tied for second in the AHL with six power-play goals this season. The 22-year-old native of Skelleftea, Sweden, earned a spot on the AHL All-Rookie Team in 2014-15, recording 22 goals and 33 assists in 70 games for Milwaukee.
In recognition of his achievement, Arvidsson will be presented with an etched crystal award prior to an upcoming Admirals home game.

Nashville, Tenn. (December 1, 2015) – Nashville Predators President of Hockey Operations/General Manager David Poile announced Tuesday that the club has recalled forward Cody Bass from Milwaukee (AHL).
Bass, 28 (1/7/87), has four points (4a) and a team-leading 45 penalty minutes in 19 games this season for the Admirals. The 6-foot-0, 205-pound native of Owen Sound, Ontario, native has appeared in 49 career NHL games with Ottawa (where he was a teammate of Mike Fisher) and Columbus – most recently with the Blue Jackets in 2013-14 – posting five points (2g-3a) and 71 penalty minutes.
Ottawa’s third choice, 95th overall (fourth round), in the 2005 Entry Draft, Bass helped the Binghamton Senators win the 2011 Calder Cup as AHL champions, in addition to winning the 2011 Yanick Dupre Memorial Award as presented annually to the AHL’s man of the year for service to his local community. He logged 247 Ontario Hockey League games with Mississauga and Saginaw from 2003-07, amassing 124 points (40g-84a) and 371 penalty minutes, and helped Canada earn a silver medal at the 2005 Under-18 World Championship.
The Nashville Predators are set to play the Arizona Coyotes tonight at 7 p.m. CT at Bridgestone Arena (TV: FOX Sports Tennessee; Radio: 102.5 The Game). Tuesday’s game is a Nissan Tuesday where fans can purchase a pair of Upper Bowl tickets for $60, or a pair of Lower Bowl tickets for $120, and receive a free Gold car flag. Tickets to Tuesday’s contest are limited and available by visiting NashvillePredators.com or by calling 615-770-7800
This has been quite a wild last day as far as roster transactions are concerned.Lots of activity up, down, and around. It all leads to this latest move which leaves the Admirals forward group so thin that the only recourse was to sign someone on loan to a PTO contract.
For those that don’t know: this is not the first rodeo in the NHL for Bass. In his career Bass has already played a total of 49 games with the Ottawa Senators and Columbus Blue Jackets. He last played NHL hockey during the 2013-14 season and it was only for one game back on 1/26/14. In his NHL career Bass has 5 points (2 goals, 3 assists), a plus/minus rating of -3, and 71 penalty minutes.

According to the ECHL Transactions Wire the Milwaukee Admirals have signed Vinny Saponari to a PTO contract on loan from the Greenville Swamp Rabbits of the ECHL. Saponari played with the Admirals during the 2013-14 season.
Saponari played college hockey with Boston University before ending up with Northeastern University. After his collegiate career came to an end he signed on to an ATO contract with the St. John’s IceCaps who are now known as the Manitoba Moose. The next season he played for the Cincinnati Cyclones and worked his way up to the AHL level with the Admirals. In the 2013-14 season in Milwaukee Saponari amassed 33 points (15 goals, 18 assists) in 58 games. He spent last season under the Hartford Wolf Pack banner but mainly spent the bulk of his season in the ECHL with the Greenville Road Warriors. He would stay there for this season and went through the PTO contract sequence twice already: with the Portland Pirates and then with the Lake Erie Monsters not more than two-weeks ago.
What’s interesting about the current predicament for the Admirals is that they literally have to sign players from the ECHL to PTO deals at the given moment if so much as one forward is banged up. Austin Watson, Miikka Salomäki, Colton Sissons, and Viktor Arvidsson are all in Nashville with the Predators. Meanwhile in Cincinnati injuries are a plenty with Jaynen Rissling currently dinged up and Eric Robinson quite possibly out for the season due to a knee injury.

Garrett Noonan didn’t particularly do anything wrong in his recent stint with the Milwaukee Admirals. This is simply a matter of numbers at defense working against him that will see him return to ECHL hockey with the Cincinnati Cyclones. (Photo Credit: Stephanie Moebius)
The roster moves keep on coming. This one was basically expected once Victor Bartley cleared waivers and was assigned to the Milwaukee Admirals from the Nashville Predators. Garrett Noonan has been assigned on loan to the Cincinnati Cyclones from the Admirals.
This means Brandon Whitney will have a travel buddy with him as he was also assigned to the Admirals’ ECHL affiliate early this afternoon following the Predators reassigningJuuse Saros to the Admirals. Busy day, eh?
Noonan logged 5 games in his recent stint with the Admirals following the lower-body injury to Johan Alm. During that small span Noonan didn’t register a point of offense, had a plus/minus rating of +1, and his only dash of penalty minutes came from an interference minor in the Admirals most recent game. I would say that Noonan was non-existent on the ice. While that might be misinterpreted as a negative I say that as a plus because when you’re playing sound defense I think that you can fly under the radar for doing such. It’s not like he was making any sort of glaring mistakes.
Fun piece of trivia that I came along while looking back over all of Bartley’s work with the Admirals. How many power-play goals did Bartley score in his two-year tenure with the Admirals? 10 power-play goals. He also scored a power-play goal in his last regular season game with the Admirals. I believe the man-advantage just got a bit stronger today.

Right on the footsteps of the Victor Bartley clearing waivers news this morning comes the news that he won’t be traveling to Milwaukee alone. The Nashville Predators have reassigned goaltender Juuse Saros to the Milwaukee Admirals while Brandon Whitney goes back to the Cincinnati Cyclones on loan assignment from the Admirals.
Saros made his NHL debut starting in net for the Predators in front of the home town crowd in Nashville. Sadly for him, his personal seven-game winning streak took a dent right around when Viktor Arvidsson was slapped with a crosschecking major and a game misconduct. The Buffalo Sabres would score twice on the power-play from that major penalty and that would be all that they needed. Saros stopped 20/23 shots on goal in the game.
I would imagine the fact that Whitney is en route to Cincinnati says that Carter Hutton is fully fit and there is no quick swap to bring Marek Mazanec up in Saros’ place. In the end, this quick cup of coffee in the NHL is a real nice way to give the young Finn a glimpse of things to come and to see what he’s working towards. You always hear ATO type signings that join the Admirals towards the end of a season say at the start of next season how beneficial that brief welcoming period is. It might have only been one-day and one-game but I believe that it still takes a big weight off Saros’ mind when the time comes for him to go up next time around. It was great for him to make his NHL debut. It wasn’t the result he’d probably have wanted but the experience sets him up nicely in the future.

Victor Bartley last played for the Milwaukee Admirals in the 2012-13 season. He was the Admirals representative at the 2013 AHL All-Star Classic. (Photo Credit: Scott Paulus)
Yesterday’s news within the organization was that the Nashville Predators finally attempted to reduce their numbers on defense where they have had two extra healthy defensemen sitting out of the lineup the majority of this season. For either Victor Bartley or Anthony Bitetto to reach the Milwaukee Admirals they would have needed to clear the waiver wire process to do so. Surprisingly the man put through this process yesterday was Bartley. Just as surprisingly he has cleared and will be joining the Admirals ahead of tomorrow night’s game against the Manitoba Moose.
Bartley played with the Admirals for 130 games over the course of two-seasons while producing 65 points (16 goals, 49 assists). He last played with the Admirals during the 2012-13 season and suited up in the 2013 AHL All-Star Classic as the Admirals representative. He spent a solid chunk of that season in Nashville before staying up there until now. He has 112 games of NHL experience, all coming with the Predators, and tallied 23 points (1 goal, 22 assists).
This season the Predators defense has remained quite healthy which has made having not just an extra defenseman but two additional blueliners a bit tough to work. The Predators sent Bitetto down on a conditioning assignment earlier this season and I was assuming a similar task would be handed off to Bartley before the Predators attempted putting one through waivers in an attempt to move them down to the Admirals. When the Predators picked up Petter Granberg from the Toronto Maple Leafs on waivers they effectively went up to three extra defensemen. Granberg is still on injured reserve but it’s clear that something was going to have to give. It did, and the net result ends up being a sigh of relief because Bartley is through waivers and still within the organization.
Beyond the sheer fact that this strengthens the Admirals blueline by adding a skilled two-way defenseman such as Bartley it also serves a great help to the player himself. Bartley was almost in purgatory this season as he only played a single game of the Predators 23 games played. Rather than look at this as a setback for Bartley you could just as well see this time used back in the AHL as a potential launch pad back to another NHL opportunity either with the Predators or elsewhere when his contract ends by season’s end. When Bartley returns to the Admirals locker room he will be the oldest defenseman on the roster at the age of 27-years old and the second oldest on the team next to Cody Bass. He can do plenty to make an already good looking Admirals team that much better.
Reaction to Bartley’s return to the Milwaukee Admirals? Would it be safe to assume Garrett Noonan returns to the Cincinnati Cyclones or do you think Kristian Näkyvä could benefit from some quick ECHL playing time?

The Nashville Predators have announced that Juuse Saros and Viktor Arvidsson have both been recalled from the Milwaukee Admirals. In addition the Predators have placed Paul Gaustad and Gabriel Bourque on injured reserve. Saros will be making his NHL debut tonight as he starts in net for the Predators on home ice.
This news comes after a 3-2 overtime loss by the Predators on the road against the Philadelphia Flyers that saw Bourque get injured and miss the final two periods of that contest due to an an upper-body injury.
Carter Hutton was caught up in a frightening collision with Marcus Foligno in Wednesday’s Predators road game against the Buffalo Sabres. He will be out of game action due to a lower-body injury. This subsequently is the reasoning behind Saros first career NHL recall where he’ll partner up with Finnish National Team goaltending partner Pekka Rinne. The two combined to set a modern day World Championship team shutout record in May and are good at mirroring each other.
In response, the Admirals have recalled Brandon Whitney and Joe Pendenza from the Cincinnati Cyclones of the ECHL. Both should join the team ahead of tonight’s game against the Rockford IceHogs.
Nashville, Tenn. (November 28, 2015) – Nashville Predators President of Hockey Operations/General Manager David Poile announced Saturday that the club has recalled forward Viktor Arvidsson and goaltender Juuse Saros from Milwaukee (AHL), and placed forwards Gabriel Bourque and Paul Gaustad on Injured Reserve.
Arvidsson, 22 (4/8/92), posted a point in each of his first 13 AHL contests this season – the longest point streak in the league in 2015-16 and longest by an Admiral since 2009-10 (Mike Santorelli, 14 games) – and paces the club with 17 points (7g-10a) in 14 games. The 5-foot-9, 180-pound native of Skelleftea, Sweden, scored his first NHL goal, which stood as the game winner, in Nashville’s season-opening victory vs. Carolina on Oct. 8, and has a goal in four games this season after going scoreless in his first six NHL contests a season ago. Nashville’s fifth choice, 112th overall (fourth round), in the 2014 NHL Draft, Arvidsson was named to the 2015 AHL All-Rookie Team in his first season in North America after ranking third among league rookies and first on the Milwaukee Admirals in points (22g-33a-55pts).
Saros, 20 (4/19/95), has posted an 8-2-0 record, a 2.40 goals-against average, a .919 save percentage and a shutout for Milwaukee in 2015-16, his first campaign in North America. During the month of November, the Forssa, Finland, native has gone 7-0-0 with a 2.00 goals-against average, a .932 save percentage and a shutout. Prior to joining the Admirals, Nashville’s fourth choice, 99th overall (fourth round), in the 2013 Entry Draft spent two seasons with HPK of the Finnish Elite League, being named league rookie of the year in 2014, as well as helping Finland win the 2014 World Junior Championship, its first gold medal at the tournament since 1987, receiving 2014 WJC Media All-Star Team honors in the process after leading all goaltenders in save percentage (.943) and goals-against average (1.57) in six games.
The Nashville Predators return home tonight to play the Buffalo Sabres at 7 p.m. CT as they begin a three-game home stand (TV: FOX Sports Tennessee; Radio: 102.5 The Game). The Predators will also face off against the Arizona Coyotes (Tuesday) and Florida Panthers (Thursday) during this three-game set. Fans can still take advantage of the “Gold Friday” super sale. During the sale, fans can get up to 80 percent off admission for select games, as well as discounts on merchandise and specials on parking. The “Gold Friday” sale ends Sunday Nov. 29 at 5 p.m. For more information on “Gold Friday,” fans can visit NashvillePredators.com.
The Arvidsson news doesn’t come as much of a surprise. Bourque’s injury in yesterday’s game was in plain sight and Arvidsson may well have been working his way into a call up regardless of an injury situation. After starting his season in Nashville all Arvidsson did in Milwaukee was score points en route to becoming the Admirals leading scorer with 17 points (7 goals, 10 assists) in 14 games. It took until last night, when the Admirals were shutout, for his AHL best thirteen-game point streak to end. The next closest point streak in the AHL this season was ten-games long by Pat Cannone of the Chicago Wolves.
Saros first career NHL call up comes as a shock for most. I don’t know if you chalk that more up to Nashville suffering a goaltending injury or that it is simply down to Saros reaching the NHL this fast. No matter what the fact is this: all that hype leading into Saros’ first season playing professionally in North America is spot on. Saros has made ten starts this season, won eight games including his last seven straight, has a 2.40 goals against average, 0.919 save percentage, and a shutout to his name.
While there might be some wagging a finger saying Marek Mazanec is being passed over or that the Czech netminder hasn’t been playing as well as his counterpart here in Milwaukee I am not one of those people. I feel both Admirals goaltenders this season have been phenomenal and often times have bailed out the young roster out in front of them. This move of bringing Saros up could well be similar to that of Mazanec’s debut season in North America. Remember that it was Magnus Hellberg that had the initial call up in early stages of the 2013-14 season before Mazanec stayed up for awhile. I think it is just as much giving a taste of things to come as it is eventually allowing playing opportunities.
As far as the moves for the Admirals are concerned. They’re now without their: team captain Colton Sissons, leading scorer Arvidsson, and arguably their top goaltender in Saros. This move is an immediate test of the young team to see how they handle a significant roster turnover. Such a happenstance like this was one of the major issues in adjusting to late last season. They’ll all need to be better than that and stick to Admirals hockey rather than go into panic mode just because there are some missing pieces.
In place of Arvidsson the Admirals will look to see if Pendenza can replicate his outstanding scoring touch at the ECHL level in Cincinnati right here in Milwaukee. Pendenza has been fantastic since joining the Cyclones: 14 points (6 goals, 8 assists) in 15 games with a plus/minus rating of +5 and 10 penalty minutes. He is second on the team in scoring trailing only Nick Huard by a single point of offense.
The Admirals might have considered recalling Eric Robinson but the unfortunate reality is that he was injured on Thanksgiving Thursday. There aren’t details on his injury but the speculation makes it seem like it might be a bit before he’s back to game action. In addition, Jaynen Rissling has also been out of action due to injury which hinders his transition from defenseman to forward.
Then there is Mr. Whitney who has been playing under the shadow of Brad Thiessen at the ECHL level with the Cyclones. While that might come off as a bad thing to say – I have always been a big fan of Thiessen and think that a youngster such as Whitney is learning a tremendous amount being able to partner up with someone of Thiessen’s very underrated abilities. Whitney has started 4 games out of the Cyclones 16 games played this season. He dropped his opening performance with the team but has since been deserving of an AHL look for his work in net. In Whitney’s last 3 starts he has won each contest and stopped 82/87 shots on goal for a 1.62 goals against average and 0.943 save percentage.
What is your reaction to all this news? Is it surprising to see the Predators select Saros over Mazanec? Could Mazanec potentially be beating himself up between the ears over this news? With Arvidsson’s fire power now out of the lineup is it important for the Admirals to focus more on defensive hockey to win games or should they maintain their balanced approach?

The Nashville Predators have opted to spend their Thanksgiving by making a roster move that will see Milwaukee Admirals captain Colton Sissons returning to the team. This recall for Sissons comes after Paul Gaustad was banged up in last night’s Predators 3-2 win against the Buffalo Sabres. In addition, the Predators have also placed Miikka Salomäki on injured reserve.
Nashville, Tenn. (November 26, 2015) – Nashville Predators President of Hockey Operations/General Manager David Poile announced today that the club has recalled forward Colton Sissons from Milwaukee (AHL) and placed forward Miikka Salomaki on Injured Reserve.
Sissons, 22 (11/5/93), has appeared in five games for the Predators this season, scoring a goal and posting a plus-four rating in his season debut on Nov. 10 vs. Ottawa. In 22 career NHL contests, the 6-foot-1, 200-pound center has posted five points (2g-3a), a plus-five rating and nine penalty minutes. Named Milwaukee’s team captain for the 2015-16 season, the North Vancouver, B.C., native has amassed eight points (3g-5a) in 12 AHL games.
Nashville’s second choice, 50th overall (second round), in the 2012 Entry Draft, Sissons is on Twitter @Colton_es15.
The Nashville Predators wrap up a five-game road trip tomorrow afternoon at 2:30 p.m. CT, as they take on the Philadelphia Flyers (TV: FOX Sports Tennessee; Radio: 102.5 The Game). The team returns home to play the Buffalo Sabres at Bridgestone Arena on Saturday, with a pregame ceremony to honor recent Hall of Fame inductee and Predators Assistant Coach Phil Housley. During “Golden Saturday” home contests, the team has special promotions, events, giveaways and in-arena campaigns centered around the “Gold” theme. All fans wearing Gold for the Nov. 18 game against Buffalo will receive a poster of Housley recognizing his accomplishments. For more information or to purchase tickets, fans can visit NashvillePredators.com or call 615-770-7800.
It was made clear to Sissons when he last came down to Milwaukee that the coaching staff in Nashville was very impressed by his performances. He was sent down not due to his play but simply the numbers up top were forcing the Predators hand. With some banged up bodies changing that fact in the space of a week I think it is safe to say he’s back where he belongs right now.
