This just announced by the Ducks:

ANAHEIM, Calif. – The Anaheim Ducks announced today that the National Hockey League (NHL) club has signed goaltender Jean-Philippe Levasseur to a one-year contract extension through the 2010-11 NHL season. Per club policy, no financial terms of the deal were disclosed.

I think some will say J.P.'s numbers in Springfield may be a result of a pretty poor team(?)


I have a feeling that we'll be providing ECHL goalies to both Bakersfield (probably 1st year guy Cousineau?), and another team closer to Syracuse. That way, Syracuse doesn't get screwed if we have to recall someone. Pielmier and Levasseur will compete to be in Syracuse, loser goes to ECHL?

I also think the Ducks will be looking for a #3 goalie with some NHL experience. Thought MacDonald might be that guy, but nothing has happened yet.

(Yes....this is all speculation).

you are right sir about Springfield being a horrible team and in no way should effect him as a goalie. Everything else you said I agree with aswell. I am hoping ducks stay with Bakersfield aswell as be affliated with a club closer to syracuse. I know there's talk here about being dual affliated but we'll see soon enough
