Griffins announce Clear Day roster

The Grand Rapids Griffins have released their 2006-07 Clear Day roster.

According to AHL by-laws, only those players listed on a team’s Clear Day roster are eligible to compete in the remainder of the AHL regular season and in the 2007 Calder Cup Playoffs, unless emergency conditions arise as a result of recall, injury or suspension. Teams may also add signed junior players or players on amateur tryout contracts after Clear Day, but only once their respective junior or college seasons are complete.

The Griffins’ Clear Day roster consists of:

Goaltenders - Jimmy Howard and Stefan Liv

Defensemen - Jonathan Ericsson, Tom Galvin, Derek Meech, Brad Norton, Kyle Quincey, Dan Smith and Danny Syvret

Forwards - Darryl Bootland, Jeff Campbell, Matt Ellis, Valtteri Filppula, Eric Himelfarb, Matt Hussey, Jonas Johansson, Adam Keefe, Evan McGrath, Kip Miller, Ryan Oulahen, Ben Simon and Tony Voce.

Defenseman Jon Insana and forward Jamie Tardif are currently in residence.
