I saw Jack Downing on the training camp roster of Binghamton but I suppose it's a try-out, I don't saw anything about him being re-signed by the B-Sens unless he was on a two-year contract last year
Weird, as Charlotte already has three goalies: Justin Peters, John Muse and Rob Madore. I guess this pushes Muse to the ECHL.
I wouldn't be surprised if this is actually the battle for the backup spot in Carolina. I know Boucher is still under contract but he is injured and he doesn't have much hockey left in him.
On that list, there are a few players who dressed for Albany last year : Haczyk, D.Zajac, Whitney, McPherson and Baier. I wouldn't be surprised if most of them are signed to AHL contract. Unfortunately, the Devils' don't release this kind of info.
Former L.A King, Scott Parse is also on that list.

Tom Gulitti updated his blog entry. He confirmed that Haczyk, Zajac, McPherson and Whitney are signed to AHL contracts. He also mentions that Chris Mckelvie and Scott Parse are signed to AHL deal, aswell. http://blogs.northjersey.com/blogs/f..._set/#comments
I'll bet these are signings for Missouri and/or Kalamazoo. Doubt these guys get much time with the Wolves.
The Chicago Wolves have released forwards Riley Emmerson and Trevor Kell from training camp and assigned them to the Central Hockey League’s Missouri Mavericks.
I guess you can call it two-ways AHL/CHL contracts
Whale general manager Jim Schoenfeld announced today that the team has signed forward Ryan Flanigan to an American Hockey League contract.
Flanigan, 24, got his first taste of pro hockey at the end of the 2011-12 season, skating in four AHL games with the Hamilton Bulldogs. The 6-1, 180-pound Rochester, NY native contributed a goal and an assist for two points, and registered four penalty minutes, with the Bulldogs, after finishing a four-year Hockey East career at Merrimack College. In 36 games with Merrimack last season, Flanigan scored 11 goals and added 18 assists for 29 points, good for tops on the team in both points and assists. He also served 42 minutes in penalties.
Raman Hrabarenka. 20 year old defenseman has signed his first professional contract with the New Jersey Devils on Friday. http://www.theqmjhl.ca/article/hraba...medium=twitter Since NHL teams can't sign players during the lockout, I believe that it's a AHL deal, even if the press release doesn't confirm it.
According to the ECHL's official site, Nick Petersen has been reassigned to Orlando from Houston. It probably means that he has a contract with Houston http://echl.com/echl-transactions-oct-4-p179498
According to Larry Brooks :
@NYP_Brooksie
Matt Gilroy has signed AHL contract with Whale. Prodigal free agent D presumably will sign with Rangers when lockout ends. https://twitter.com/NYP_Brooksie/sta...03988458082304
Steve McCarthy will start the season in Abbotsford, however I don't think that he signed a SPC. The press release isn't really clear. http://www.abbotsfordheat.com/news/r...article_id=154
The Heat also announced that defenseman Steve McCarthy has been retained under agreement and will begin the American Hockey League season in Abbotsford.
Lake Erie announced their opening night roster of 28 players http://lakeeriemonsters.com.ismmedia...3_ODroster.pdf
Karl Stollery, Ben Wilson, Jamie MacQueen, Dean Strong and Matt Tassone have made the team. However, I don't know if they are signed to SPCs or PTOs
As an Oilers fan, I was disappointed the Oilers didn't sign Blain considering he has good size and put up 50 points as a defenceman last year in the Q.
Additionally...the Griffins assigned forward Luke Glendening to the Walleye and signed forward Jeff Hoggan (HOH-guhn) to a professional tryout.
Quote:
Hoggan, 34, will start the season with the Griffins after attending training camp on a tryout. The Hope, British Columbia, native has played 412 career AHL games with Houston, Worcester, Providence and San Antonio, registering 211 points (111-100—211). Hoggan, who has also logged 102 NHL games and 11 points (2-9—11) for St. Louis, Boston and Phoenix, spent the past two seasons with Wolfsburg Grizzly Adams and the Hannover Scorpions in the DEL (Germany), recording 49 points (25-24—49) in 81 games.
Abbotsford Heat General Manager Jay Feaster announced today the signing of centre Brett Olson to an American Hockey League contract.
Olson completed a four-year collegiate career with the Michigan Tech Huskies (WCHA) in March where he recorded 42 goals, 51 assists, 93 points and 156 penalty minutes in 127 games. The 25-year-old led the Huskies in scoring in his sophomore and senior years, and served as team captain for his final two seasons.
Hamilton Bulldogs General Manager Marc Bergevin announced today that the Club has signed defenceman Antoine Corbin to a one-year American Hockey League contract. As per club policy, financial terms of the agreement were not disclosed.
Corbin, 20, has spent parts of four seasons in the Western Hockey League with the Prince Albert Raiders and the Kelowna Rockets, registering 70 points (25 goals, 43 assists) and 265 penalty minutes in 189 regular season games. The 6’3”, 206-pound defenceman played two games with the Raiders this season and scored two goals before receiving an invitation to Bulldogs training camp. The native of Granby, Quebec led all Raiders defenceman with 12 goals during the 2011-2012 season while ranking second on the team with 25 points by a defenceman.
The Manchester Monarchs, the primary affiliate of the 2012 Stanley Cup Champion Los Angeles Kings, have signed goaltender Peter Mannino to a professional tryout agreement and assigned goaltender Jean-Francois Berube to their ECHL affiliate, the Ontario Reign, announced Director of Hockey Operations Hubie McDonough on Thursday.
Quote:
Last season, the 6-foot-1, 195-pound native of Farmington Hills, Michigan suited up for the St. John’s IceCaps (AHL), the Portland Pirates (AHL), Chicago Express (ECHL) and the Jets. In 25 AHL games for the IceCaps and Pirates last season, Mannino tallied a record of 12-11-1 while posting a 3.17 goals-against-average and a .901 save percentage.
Dustin Gazley led the ECHL with 85 points (25 goals, 60 assists), which resulted in his being named an ECHL first-team all-star and the league’s Rookie of the Year.
He’s on a two-way contract with the Binghamton Senators, Elmira’s lone American Hockey League affiliate this season.
First of all here is a list of players who made the opening night roster, however I don't know if they are signed to PTOs (try-out) or SPCs (one year) contract.
Abbotsford : *Steve McCarthy
Adirondack : Rob Bordson
Binghamton : Jack Downing
Connecticut : Scott Pitt, Shayne Wiebe
Houston : Kris Fredheim
Lake Erie : Karl Stollery, Ben Wilson, Jamie MacQueen and Dean Strong
San Antonio : John Lee, Jared Gomes
Charlotte : Dan Ellis
Grand Rapids : Jeff Hoggan
Hamilton : Darryl Boyce
Manchester : Peter Mannino
Norfolk : Jay Rosehill
Rockford : Brett Lebda
St. John's : Brian Sutherby, Derek Whitmore
Texas : Cam Barker, Taylor Vause
-----
I'll add the following players to the list since they were assigned (just like other players on AHL contracts) to the ECHL or the CHL. It seems like some teams (*cough* Binghamton, Houston, Lake Erie *cough*) aren't able to issue a simple press release saying that player X is signed to a AHL contract.
