Yeah to echo the sentiments previously mentioned; you guys nailed it on the head with Gilroy. I feel that its good to have him in the system. The Whale are going up against rosters that have 3-5 NHLers on a given night, while not having a single regular season player from last year's Rangers team playing in the AHL.

Playing on a talent deficient team without chemistry, Gilroy's been a steady difference maker for the team, and when the NHL guys playing where they belong then Gilly will probably be one of the better players down there.

Org seems to like the guy, and from all accounts I've heard he's a good dude, but while he won't be a fixture on the NHL team, it doesn't hurt to have him be our AHL Karlsson.
