AHL Goalie News — Tuesday June 9, 2009

Features

• The Goalie Guild takes a look at how Michal Neuvirth is quietly on the path to goalie greatness and who is more valuable to the Capitals organization, Neuvy or their other playoff sensation, Simeon Varlamov.

• The Manitoba Moose think getting shots in close is the only way they can beat Neuvirth and possibly get back in the series, which is currenlty 3-1 in favor of Hershey. The Bears could take the Calder Cup tonight with a win. (Winnipeg Sun)

Transactions

• The Chicago Blackhawks have signed Yale goalie Alec Richards to an entry-level contract. Presumably, he’ll compete for a spot on the Rockford Ice Hogs roster in the fall. (Chicago Tribune)
