Kane and Raduns to Phantoms, Gratton called up, Nodl update

According to the AHL transactions page, these three reassignments happened yesterday:

Date Player Team Transaction
11/07/2008 Steve Downie (RW) Norfolk ADD Loaned from Tampa Bay (NHL)
11/07/2008 Boyd Kane (LW) Philadelphia ADD Returned on loan from Philadelphia (NHL)
11/07/2008 Nate Raduns (C) Philadelphia ADD Returned on loan from Philadelphia (NHL)



I'm glad the Phantoms are getting Raduns and Kane back. We'll need them if we keep losing players left, right, and in between to trades and callups. Speaking of which, I saw a post on the flyersphans.com forum that Josh Gratton is called up. I can't say that surprises me, as he was scratched last night. However, I'm still looking for confirmation of that recall on the Flyers, Phantoms, or AHL transactions page.

While searching for an official transaction report regarding Gratton, I found this on the Flyers PR blog:

Also on the injury front, Andreas Nodl could be back in the lineup after sitting out the last two games with a lower body injury. Nodl was playing on a line with Jeff Carter and Scottie Upshall before he got hurt.

“Nodl feels pretty good,” said Stevens. “I haven’t talked to [Flyers trainer] Jim Mccrossin yet, but Nodl is getting close.”


I checked the Flyers Injury Report page, and they've got Nodl and Powe both listed as "day-to-day". Here's hoping they're both back in the lineup ASAP.
