AHL: Platt's back

Not only do the Portland Pirates have ECHL call-ups Matt Christie and Ryan Dingle to bolster the lineup this weekend as they begin a 4-games-in-5-days stretch.

They've also got the return of Geoff Platt.

Platt, who played 4 games for parent Anaheim in the NHL after a recent recall, is expected to be in the lineup for the Pirates tonight against Manchester.

Platt has 7-9--16 totals in his 9 games with Portland. Originally acquired in a trade with Columbus (where he'd been playing with their minor-league affiliate in Syracuse), Platt was scoreless with 2 PIM.
