Aebsicher Sent Down

With only one start under his belt this season, it looks as though David Aebischer (Marcus) has now officially lost the goaltending battle in Phoenix. The Coyotes waived Aebischer on Tuesday, which he cleared on Wednesday and afterwards was sent down to the AHL, which you can see by the new graphic beside the Coyotes logo. Now the Coyotes are going to run with Mikael Tellqvist (Box 12) and Alex Auld. This is a pretty fair-sized blow to Marcus' hopes for the next five weeks, unless there are injuries or a really lack of production from the two keepers who have stayed up with the club.
