(Goalie earns third call-up of the season, and Evansville releases Brewer, Driscoll and Turgeon.)Â
The Evansville IceMen, proud ECHL affiliate of the NHL’s Ottawa Senators, and Head Coach Al Sims announced Friday that goaltender Scott Greenham has been recalled by the AHL’s Binghamton Senators. This is Greenham’s third call-up of the 2015-16 season. The IceMen also released forwards Jackson Brewer and Daniel Turgeon, and defenseman Bo Driscoll.
Greenham, 28, returns to Binghamton, after Ottawa announced that they had recalled goalie Chris Driedger to the NHL club on an emergency basis. In 14 appearances with the IceMen, Greenham posted a 7-5-2 record with a 2.62 goals-against average and .922 save percentage. The Ottawa, ON native was also called up to Binghamton November 17 and December 30 on two previous stints, where he had a 3-1-0 record with a 2.19 goal-against average and .928 save percentage with the B-Sens.
Brewer played in three games for the IceMen, while Turgeon and Driscoll each appeared in Evansville’s two games last weekend against Atlanta.
Evansville continues a season-long six-game home stand with three games this weekend at the Ford Center. The IceMen take on the Tulsa Oilers Friday and Saturday at 7:15pm, and host the Wichita Thunday Sunday at 5:15pm. All three games are a part of Evansville’s Book Drive, benefitting Hangers.
