Ct Post: Michael Fornabaio reports in his blog the following transactions from the AHL.com page here.

Mike Mole is going up to back up Wade Dubielewicz which Mr Fornabaio reports and the only move AHL.com does not have at the monent. Kip Brennan got an additional two game suspension beyond the league mandated suspension so he is out four total games.

These are the confirmed moves:
03/25 Keith Johnson (C) Bridgeport ADD Recalled from loan to Utah (ECHL)
03/24 Jeremy Colliton (C) Bridgeport ADD Returned on loan from N.Y. Islanders (NHL)
03/24 Joey MacDonald (G) Bridgeport ADD Returned on loan from N.Y. Islanders (NHL)
03/24 Matthew Spiller (D) Bridgeport ADD Returned on loan from N.Y. Islanders (NHL)
03/24 Olivier Labelle (RW) Bridgeport DEL Returned on loan to Utah (ECHL)
03/24 Steve Regier (LW) Bridgeport ADD Returned on loan from N.Y. Islanders (NHL)

NYI Fan Central Comments:
New York plays Thursday and Saturay. Bridgeport played Wednesday-Friday-Sat-Sun the next three weeks. Both teams have been patching lineups together with so many players injured/suspended on both sides.

It should be noted Bridgeport plays at the WBS Penguins Wednesday, the Islanders play in Pittsburgh Thursday so a quick recall is likely.

MacDonald needs to get his work in and the Sound Tigers need a competitive roster to have a shot at a playoff spot being that for now it looks like Okposo, Tambellini, Comeau remain in the NHL.
