The AHL named Kevin Poulin its player of the week today for that assortment of various things he did this week in 244:42 of playing time. From the press release: On the strength of his week, Poulin lowered his goals-against average for the season by half a goal (3.27 to 2.77) and added 14 points to his save percentage (.891 to .905).
Poulin is the 12th Sound Tiger to earn the honor (edit: more accurately, it’s the 12th time for a Sound Tiger, and he’s the 11th; Tambellini won it twice in 2007-08) and the fourth goalie (Kochan ’04-05, Dubielewicz ’05-06, Munroe ’09-10).
Edit 2: And now a bit after five, the Islanders announce that they’ve called Poulin up and sent Anders Nilsson down.

I know the AHL to develop players for the NHL. But I think bringing Kevin up is not a good idea. They are last place team with no hope for playoffs, where as, BST could plug along and make it. #rebuilding
