They began the week with four goaltenders, but the Adirondack Phantoms are down to two with today's reassignment of Jeremy Duchesne to the ECHL's Kalamazoo Wings.
A fourth-round Philadelphia Flyers draft pick in 2005, Duchesne, 22, played for Mississippi and South Carolina in the ECHL last season, picking up his first AHL win for the Phantoms, then based in Philly, on March 28. He dressed as the backup to Nic Riopel in a 3-2 season-opening loss to Worcester on Oct. 3.
Riopel remains on Adirondack's roster along with 28-year-old Swedish import Johan Backlund. Michael-Lee Teslak was assigned to ECHL Elmira on Tuesday.
Adirondack hosts Springfield on Friday at the Glens Falls Civic Center, and plays its first road game at the Onondaga County War Memorial in Syracuse on Saturday.
