Filling Holes

In a move designed to compensate for the recent call-up of Parker Milner to Bridgeport, the Missouri Mavericks traded for Chris Rawlings from Idaho.  Going to the Steelheads is Torin Snyderman.  Rawlings' acquisition comes as the New York Islanders, who are the parent club of the Mavericks, had to fill a hole with Jaroslav Halak out, and therefore, called up Christopher Gibson from Bridgeport of the AHL.  Naturally, there is a chain reaction, and for the Mavericks, that meant Bridgeport needed a goalie to take Gibson's spot, meaning Milner was the one to get the call.  Rawlings will be stepping in with Josh Robinson as the tandem in goal for the Mavericks until Halak gets back to full health.
