The Hamilton Bulldogs announced their Clear Day Roster on Tuesday. This
22-man roster is the only group of players eligible to play in Hamilton for the
remainder of the season and playoffs, barring injuries, recalls to the Habs, or
suspensions. Here is Hamilton’s list:
Goalies: Drew MacIntyre, Curtis Sanford
Defence: Mathieu Carle, Alex Henry, Kyle Klubertanz, Brendon Nash,
Neil Petruic, Frederic St. Denis
Forwards: Alexander Avtsin, Jimmy Bonneau, Dustin Boyd, Andrew Conboy,
Nigel Dawes, Gabriel Dumont, Andreas Engqvist, Olivier Fortier, Dany Masse,
Aaron Palushaj, Ryan Russell, Ian Schultz, Ryan White, J.T. Wyman
The non-presence of Max Pacioretty, David Desharnais, and Yannick Weber means
that none of these players will be able to return for the AHL postseason, should
the Habs be eliminated before the Bulldogs. As Ryan White is on the list,
he will be eligible to return.
The team’s ‘In Residency’ list was also announced. These players are
eligible to play if 3 of the Clear Day players are either injured, recalled, or
suspended. Here are the In Residency players:
Goalie: Robert Mayer
Defence: David Urquhart
Forward: Hunter Bishop
With all this said, there still can be additions to the playoff eligible
list. Players who have finished their junior or collegiate seasons are
allowed to be added to the list on Amateur Tryout Contracts (ATO’s). In
past years, players like Carey Price and Gabriel Dumont (last season) have been
added. A full listing of the rosters can be found at the link below.
