Tim Kennedy gets added to the roster, and Garrett Wilson is surprisingly sent to the Cincinnati Cyclones.
(For those unaware, the Cincinnati Cyclones are an ECHL dual-affiliate of the Panthers and Predators)
Interestingly, there's been just as little chatter about this contract as was the case with fellow goaltender Tyler Plante several days ago. Spooky.

From HF's Mike Burrell: When the Panthers made the trade with Vancouver to acquire Michael Grabner, they thought they were adding a highly skilled sniper to the organization. Grabner failed to earn a spot with the club though and was lost on waivers to the New York Islanders. Fortunately there are still a few good prospects at the position. Lots more above.

No shockers here, as rookie Cheverie was easily the odd-man out behind the Rochester duo of Tyler Plante and Jacob Markstrom. BTW: for everything Cincinnati Cyclones (Florida's new ECHL affiliate), do be sure to check out our pals at CycWords throughout the coming season.
From the Sun-Sentinel's Harvey Fialkov: Thursday’s final was 5-1 but let’s not read too much into these two lopsided losses. I spoke to Nashville’s Blake Geoffrion, the Hobey Baker Award winner from Wisconsin last year (...) and he told me his fellow prospects have played together in development camps for three years while the Panthers rookies basically met this week. So the Predators had the chemistry edge and experience edge as many of them have AHL and Olympics on their resumes. Ugly results, but Fialkov's reasoning is sound. It was easily identifiable in game one: Preds had a visible comfort level not seen on Florida's bench.
