After a strong start, his last few games for the Kings were not very good. The Kings are in a serious struggle and trying to find both offense and defense, so I'm guessing he won't be back too soon. If Frolov comes off of IR soon, he would have to wait for 2 injuries.

O'Byrne got called up by the habs.

My source is Team 990 in Montreal.  I'm listening online.

Dan Glover has been traded from Fresno Falcons (ECHL) to Columbia (South Carolina) Inferno (ECHL).

Are these ECHL teams affiliated with NHL clubs, and if so, what happens when a player gets traded?

ECHL teams are affiliated with NHL teams, but all of the players on them are not. I assume people getting traded in the ECHL are not actually under contract with the NHL affiliate at all so it makes no difference.

It must be annoying to get traded across the country in the ECHL. I hope his landlord doesn't bust his chops about breaking the lease.

Apparently Fresno is one of 3 ECHL teams that has no affiliation:

What you said is still absolutely true, but interesting to note.

Teams pay for housing, so I am sure he will be switching apartments with whoever is coming the other way.

Anyone notice that Dougy Murray is 4th in the NHL in +/-!

O'Byrne wearing #3 and playing with Hamrlick. Drew the games first penalty (which MTL scored on) and has two nice checks so far. He had NESN's Jack Edwards talking about his literal and figurative impact on the game so far in his debut.

[Ronald '09]

If I watched that play correctly, I think he got an assist but not a plus.  I could've been wrong though, but I think he made a pass, got on the bench, and then the second goal scored.

O'Byrne gets his first NFL assist on a goal by Chipchura.

As stated above he jumped on the bench for a change so is still even for the night.
