BERLET SPOTLIGHT RETURNS: ZUCCARELLO

Posted on March 26, 2013 | Leave a comment

Bruce-Berlet-150x1501BY: Bruce Berlet, Special to Howlings

Mats Zuccarello was scheduled to head back to North America on Tuesday night but don’t expect “The Norwegian Hobbit” to make another pit stop in Hartford with the Connecticut Whale.

Therefore, the Rangers have claimed aging d-man Roman Hamrlik on waivers from the Washington Capitals. Continue reading →
