Keetley Earns shutout in first preseason game
Goalie Matt Keetley stopped 22 shots for the shutout.
Keetley admitted to a rather wobbly start to the game.
"I was a little shaky out there at the start. I think I settled down and the guys settled down. They did a god job defensively. They kept the shots on net pretty basic for me," said Keetley.
The Flames second game of the tournament is against Vancouver Monday at 7 p.m. MT. The game will again be streamed live onto www.calgaryflames.com.

Tigers trade Brown and Frazee
Tyler Kieffer sent to Medicine Hat in defensive swap Everett Silvertips Vice President / General Manager Doug Soetaert announced Thursday that the Silvertips have acquired Shayne Brown, 19, from the Medicine Hat Tigers in exchange for defenseman Tyler Kieffer, 19. A native of Stony Plain, Alberta, Brown scored three goals and added seven assists for ten points in 55 games with the Tigers, finishing with 89 penalty minutes in his eighteen-year old WHL campaign.
Brown, a 6’1, 198 pound mobile, stay at home left-handed defenseman, has logged 138 career WHL games, amassing four goals and fifteen assists for nineteen points along with 172 penalty minutes.
“We’re happy to add a quality defenseman of this nature to our organization,” Soetaert noted. “He’s been a leader in Medicine Hat, and we look forward to his leadership here in Everett.”
After signing a WHL Educational Contract in November, 2007 following a stint with the USHL’s Lincoln Stars, Kieffer played in 27 games, finishing with three assists and 27 penalty minutes to go along with a +4 rating.

Hmm, I'm thinking he's more of a replacement for the loss of bendfeld. Someone who can play physical
Moose Jaw, SK: The Moose Jaw Warriors today announce that they have acquired 18-year-old right wing forward Thomas Frazee for a conditional 5th round pick in 2009.
Thomas joins the Warriors after spending a season with both the Medicine Hat Tigers and the Portland Winter Hawks. The 6’3 195 lbs forward was originally drafted by the Winter Hawks in the 1st round (11th overall) in the 2005 WHL Bantam Draft.
He is an individual who brings experience along with the potential to contribute offensively. He also helps address our 18 year old age group an area we wanted to increase.” stated Warriors General Manager Chad Lang.
With the abundance of forwards something had to give, and frazee was the odd man out. Good move IMO.

“I thought it was a really, really good game,” said Desjardins. “I thought it was way better than most exhibition games.
“I thought it was like a league game and not even just a league game. It was more close to a playoff game. I thought the tempo was great.

Bendfeld Signs with the Oilers
WHich means his chances of coming back may have just been thrown out the window. Yesterday I thought his chances of sticking would be 15%, but from reading various blogs about this signing I think those numbers just reversed itself. It will be a waiting game to see if he comes back.

NHL Training Camp Invitees
I'll try to keep an updated list on any current tigers that get invited to NHL camp.
So far we know:
Tyler Ennis - Buffalo Sabres - Chance to stick - Unlikely
As buffalo would have to keep him up the whole year. Buffalo is stocked with forwards. At most Ennis would probably miss 3-5 games. If he impresses enough in Buffalo, they may let him play 1 or 2 preseason games, and if that is the case he would miss the Tigers home opener.
Jordan Bendfeld - Edmonton Oilers - Chance to stick - Possible-
From what I've read Edmonton Drafted Benny for his fighting ability and size. Edmonton's farm team were pushed around last year, and the Oilers used their last pick in the draft to get some toughness. The Oil's farm team has 15 D-men attending. I think they'll give Bendfeld a chance to make it, But he will have to have an impressive camp. If Bendfeld kinda just shows up and doesn't fight anyone, or bang the body, hell be sent back early.
If Bendfeld happens to sign it means his chances of sticking in the ahl/echl will be very good. Its still up in the air a little bit, but its possible he's back by the season opener, and its possible he is one of the last guys to come back.
