New defenseman

Not that it fills in all the gaps that need filling -- late word that Rick Berry is probably out Friday -- but Bridgeport is bringing in defenseman Dustin VanBallegooie* from Fresno on a pro tryout. Teammate of Jamie Johnson and Brandon Nolan with Oshawa. And good gravy, as the Fresno release reveals: He's a righty.

*-"VAN-BELL-uh-GOO-ee," says Fresno's Web site.
