Cam Barker sent down...
Surprised to say the least, this Khabibulin situation is a bad but I never thought this would happen, I feel bad for Cam, who has been trying to find his game after having a reasonable second half last season.
He is a very good on the powerplay and the thought of a powerplay anchored, by Campbell and Barker seemed like a good one in fact the tried this succesfully in the pre-season and Barkers minutes were only second to Campbell.
No doubt for the time being this move was made to keep the Hawk under Cap but could their be more to this? Barker was the subject of some hot rumours this summer and the thought was that if he couldn't crack the top 4 at nearly 3 million he would be expendable, if he was ib the top 4 they certainly would have found another way to stay under the cap.
