Some news and notes around the Ice world today.
Followed up on a post yesterday about Alex Kuvaev. The Ice listed the former Huricane import forward from Russia a couple of weeks back but following the post I found this on the Moscow Dynamo site of the KHL. It's translated using Google but you get the jist of it. It looks as though Kuvaev has signed a two-way deal, between the junior Knights and the Dynamo club. Likely that means you won't see him in Cranbrook this September.
In the coaching game former Ice assistant Brad Lauer wasn't out of work long as the Anaheim Ducks have hired him to help run the bench of the Syracuse Crunch, the club's AHL affiliate. He'll work alongside Crunch head coach Mark Holick.
Former Ice bench boss Ryan McGill isn't the head coach of the Regina Pats, at least not yet, according to Greg Harder in today's Leader-Post. The Pats are thought to have McGill as a finalist, along with Cory Clouston, for their head coaching position. Both McGill and Clouston are exhausting all avenues in the pros before considering a job back in the junior ranks.
Former Ice forward Brett Sutter has reportedly plead guilty to a disorderly conduct charge after punching a cab driver in Phoenix last November. Sutter was with the Calgary Flames at the time and was subsequently dealt to the Carolina Hurricanes and sent down to their AHL affiliate in Charlotte.
