This doesn't surprise me too much. Pickard has been struggling thus far for the Admirals. Jeremy definitely deserves the shot to play at the AHL level. However, I'll be a little bummed is he's not back to be between the pipes for the banner raising on Saturday.
I'm also interested in seeing how Pickard, a 1st Round draftee, performs. It could be great for us if he performs to expectations. However, if he were playing that well he wouldn't be getting sent here. |

Jeremy Smith Recalled to Milwaukee, Chet Pickard Assigned
CINCINNATI, Ohio - The 2010 Kelly Cup Champion Cincinnati Cyclones, proud affiliate of the NHL's Florida Panthers and Nashville Predators, announced today that goaltender Jeremy Smith has been recalled by the Milwaukee Admirals of the American Hockey League. In addition, the Admirals have assigned goaltender Chet Pickard to Cincinnati. In a separate transaction, the Cyclones have waived defenseman J.C. Sawyer.
This will be Smith's third-career trip to the American Hockey League and second this season. From October 12-18, the second year goaltender served as the backup for the Milwaukee Admirals and did not see any action. Last season he appeared in five minutes of one game for the Cyclones AHL affiliate.
Pickard, the Nashville Predators 18th overall draft selection in 2008, comes to Cincinnati in hopes of improving his 2010-11 numbers. He has posted an 0-3-1 record with a 3.47 goals-against average (GAA) and an 88.5 save percentage this season. During his rookie campaign last year, the Winnipeg, Manitoba native appeared in 36 games for Milwaukee, earning a 14-16-3 record with a 2.85 GAA and 89.2 save percentage.
Prior to being drafted, Pickard played backup to now-Montreal Canadiens star Carey Price in his first two seasons with the Tri-City Americans (WHL), then took over the starting position in 2007-08 when Price moved up to the NHL. Pickard won 46 games that year posting a 2.32 GAA and 92.0 save percentage en route to succeeding Price as WHL Goaltender of the Year. He was additionally awarded the Del Wilson Trophy as the top WHL goaltender and was named to the WHL West and CHL First All-Star Teams.
Pickard will join the rest of the Cyclones as they travel to Toledo this Friday night to battle the Walleye in the first of 13 regular season meetings. The puck drops at 7:00pm with live radio coverage on MAX-FM beginning at 6:45pm.
The defending Kelly Cup Champion Cyclones open their home schedule this Saturday, October 30 at U.S. Bank Arena against the Wheeling Nailers. The first 10,000 fans through the gates will receive a free 2010-11 Magnetic Schedule. Discounted ticket packages and single game tickets for the 2010-2011 season are available now. For more information, call 513.421.PUCK (7825) or visit CyclonesHockey.com.

| Lets hope he performs here like Mark D did last year when he was sent down to find his game. In the two games I think he gave up one goal. I agree it would be too bad if Jeremy missed Saturday night |

| I think he'll be okay with missing the game if it means he's in the A |

| Just looked and Admirals have two games this weekend on Fri/Sat in Abbotsford outside of Vancouver so it looks like Jeremy will miss Saturday's game here. Logistics don't make sense to swap them back after Fridays game |
