"Ondrej Pavelec, the top prospect in the Atlanta Thrashers organization, will not be reporting to the AHL his agent told Sporting News.
The 21-year old goalie was sent to the AHL's Chicago Wolves on Saturday by the team after seeing action in only two Thrashers preseason games. He started the first preseason game, earning the win, and came in relief of Johan Hedberg for the third period of Friday night's loss to Nashville. He allowed four goals in the period.
Allan Walsh, Pavelec's agent, said the Thrashers organization didn't keep promises given to the young goalie when he signed with the team, so he wants out." www.sportingnews.com/yourturn/viewtopic.php?t=466980One of the top 3 goaltending prospects in the world, and probably better than Pogge. Someone's gonna get a steal here if they can nab him from Waddell.

Someone on hfboards posted a very interesting thought.
Would you do Pavelec for Pogge?
Pavelec by most accounts is a better goalie with more potential than Pogge, but somewhat questionable character issues.
Normally Atlanta wouldn't even entertain such a notion, but given the fact that he's pushed them into a corner, they might have to contemplate moving him at lower value.
What do you think?

I wouldn't, I think Pogge's going to be stellar, not exactly elite but I believe he'll put up some great numbers. To dump him after all the time we've invested into him and the patience he's had with us to get a wild case like Pavelec doesn't seem very reputable.
Would you dump your steady and stable girl of three years for a night with some hot and crazy hooker knowing she'll leave your ass as soon as someone flashes her some more cash?
