inkman Posted November 17, 2011 Report Posted November 17, 2011 Per WGR The Amerks have been using him in a bizarre fashion on the PP. He basically stands in between the face-off dots with his stick cocked, ready for a one timer. He scored last night on this play but it seems to set the other team up for breakaways.
Eleven Posted November 17, 2011 Report Posted November 17, 2011 Was he recalled fondly? In seriousness, I'm anxious to see how he does up here.
nfreeman Posted November 17, 2011 Report Posted November 17, 2011 So MAG is going to get healthy-scratched in favor of Brennan? That seems odd.
korab rules Posted November 17, 2011 Report Posted November 17, 2011 So MAG is going to get healthy-scratched in favor of Brennan? That seems odd. Maybe someone else knicked? If MAG sits for Brennan Ruff is really pissed at him - can't imagine why they would call him up if they don't intend to play him.
Weave Posted November 17, 2011 Report Posted November 17, 2011 Just in case Myers gets sat down I would imagine.
DumbPuck Posted November 17, 2011 Report Posted November 17, 2011 Just in case Myers gets sat down I would imagine. Beat me to it.
korab rules Posted November 17, 2011 Report Posted November 17, 2011 Just in case Myers gets sat down I would imagine. good call.
DaFan Posted November 17, 2011 Report Posted November 17, 2011 Just in case Myers gets sat down I would imagine. GR Is reporting Weber is injuried. Linkie
Weave Posted November 17, 2011 Report Posted November 17, 2011 GR Is reporting Weber is injuried. Linkie But that wouldn't necessitate a call up unless someone else can't go, I figure they are hedging that Myers gets suspended.
frissonic Posted November 17, 2011 Report Posted November 17, 2011 But that wouldn't necessitate a call up unless someone else can't go, I figure they are hedging that Myers gets suspended. i doubt he'll be suspended. normally if someone's in trouble, there's some kind of scuttlebutt on nhl.com or wherever. i haven't seen anything even remotely indicating that he's even meeting with shanny.
inkman Posted November 17, 2011 Author Report Posted November 17, 2011 I hope they bench leopold or Ehrhoff in favor of Brennan. It's no secret I'm not real fond of MAG, but those other guys have been frightening at times.
HopefulFuture Posted November 17, 2011 Report Posted November 17, 2011 Just in case Myers gets sat down I would imagine. I doubt it, no hearing has even been scheduled as of yet. I'm thinking 7th d man since Weber is hurt.
HopefulFuture Posted November 17, 2011 Report Posted November 17, 2011 can i ask what MAG means Marc Andre Gragnani
JWell Posted November 17, 2011 Report Posted November 17, 2011 Marc Andre Gragnani That makes sense thanks
carpandean Posted November 17, 2011 Report Posted November 17, 2011 He scored last night on this play but it seems to set the other team up for breakaways. Rochester is playing Lindy's system, too, then? ;)
FogBat Posted November 17, 2011 Report Posted November 17, 2011 It's no secret I'm not real fond of MAG. IDK if anyone has brought this up in the past, but should we start calling him "Maggie"? (Sorry, I couldn't resist.)
shrader Posted November 17, 2011 Report Posted November 17, 2011 But that wouldn't necessitate a call up unless someone else can't go, I figure they are hedging that Myers gets suspended. Rochester's not right down the road when you're in Carolina. Then again, doing this one day ahead of time is interesting.
DumbPuck Posted November 17, 2011 Report Posted November 17, 2011 IDK if anyone has brought this up in the past, but should we start calling him "Maggie"? (Sorry, I couldn't resist.) No, call him "Granimals". My wife does because she can't pronounce Grangani I think.
tom webster Posted November 17, 2011 Report Posted November 17, 2011 Given their cap situation, they wouldn't recall him just to watch. I'm sure the Myers thing plays into it( and no, they don't have to have a hearing), but its still interesting that they would call him back early.
korab rules Posted November 17, 2011 Report Posted November 17, 2011 Ink and other Rochester folks - how has Brennan been playing? Maybe this is an indication Weber will be out long term, and they want to have a seventh D-man on hand to get him up to speed on systems.
Sherman Posted November 17, 2011 Report Posted November 17, 2011 He fits the MAG, Erhoff, Sykera, Myers mold correct? Could they be in trade talks and looking to give up a puck moving defenceman in the trade?
Calvin Posted November 17, 2011 Report Posted November 17, 2011 Looks like the Sabrespace spelling police are on furlough
james duncan Posted November 17, 2011 Report Posted November 17, 2011 An odd call up I think. I didn't see much from him in the preseason. I would think with the number of kids in the minors on D, if a trade is going to be made at some point, it's got to involve one of them. This would provide other teams, and us, a chance to see what he can do I guess.
inkman Posted November 18, 2011 Author Report Posted November 18, 2011 Ink and other Rochester folks - how has Brennan been playing? Above average. Nice skater, good shot. Not sure about his D play though.
