Bailey wants it. Good to see Alex get some points. Were his assists primary or secondary? Either way it's good.

[Two or less]

Tim Murray just said on WGR that the Amerks signed Patrick Mullen off waivers returning from the KHL and will join Rochester this weekend. He's a decent AHL player.

He's racked up the apples in his first two games so far.

Went to Syr-Roch game which Amerks lost 5-2. The Crunch got a couple of lucky bounces due to the bad ice. It was too warm in there, you could see the ice was bad, the puck was bouncing and some guys were falling untouched. But the Amerks overall lack team speed and size.

 

It would be a mistake to call up Nylander. He looks like a boy among men. He shows some skills but needs to bulk up so he doesn't get knocked around. Even his socks look baggy. Baptiste has the speed to compete for the NHL, but nobody else stood out. Although the new D Mullen looked like he had some skill, but probably too small for the NHL.

2-2 end of the first vs Bridgeport Sound. Halak in net for the bad guys. Game is in MSG.

Fun first period. I like the candy cane socks.

[Ogre]

Ullmark with a nice impression of Hasek there.

Love the pad stack. This game is entertaining.

[Ogre]

Austin looks like the freaking Hulk out there.

[SwampD]

Just found this on MSG in New York. Nice.

Not a fan of the pseudo-where's Waldo look.

 

Wish I'd checked this thread earlier. Just started watching w/ ~5 minutes left in the 2nd.

 

Baptiste is definitely the best Amerk.

[Ogre]

Welp. We just got Nelsoned.

[darksabre]

Lafranchise is the most pretentious athlete name ever.

[Taro T]

Dal Colle only has 10 goals for Bridgeport this year. Would've expected him to be better than that at this point.

[SwampD]

Great play by Strachen without a stick.

[darksabre]

Is Nelson bad?

[Ogre]

Is Nelson bad?

Yes

[darksabre]

Yes

Okay :lol:

[Ogre]

Okay :lol:

Yet another example.

[Taro T]

Is Nelson bad?

  

Yes

In fairness though on the 4th goal he can't be expected to expect the linesman the set the Sound Tiger up for a breakaway. What an awful bounce.

[Scottysabres]

How's Baptiste look?

And is Fasching playing?

They both are noticable, which is good I think.

He did whiff on his shot which is why the puck was even heading back into our zone.
