Norcal Posted April 10, 2021 Report Posted April 10, 2021 He may never be more than a Rochester player but Franco skates hard and plays a North South game. Good for him on his first goal. Quote
dudacek Posted April 10, 2021 Report Posted April 10, 2021 Every-game Amerk watchers, am I right to be excited about my boy, big Mattias? First-pair minutes, all-situations as a rookie? Physically ready, no signs of his alleged speed issues, and 9 points in 16 games to boot? We going to see this guy in Buffalo before the year's over? Quote

Expand I think you are right to be excited. No situation is too big for him. He finds himself on the right side of most puck battles, has good positioning and an active stick in all zones. He will hit and can take one. Pretty much nothing not to like but I don't know if he will come up this year. He could probably hold his own but it might be better for him to stay down and be better than most of the opposition for now. Love the kid! 1 Quote
Flashsabre Posted April 10, 2021 Report Posted April 10, 2021 I’m out of the loop, are the AHL doing a regular playoffs with these divisions or what is the plan? Quote
DarthEbriate Posted April 10, 2021 Report Posted April 10, 2021 Fun note on today's game: The Amerks played yesterday. The Monsters played last Saturday. It should be a classic examination of too-long-of-a-layoff vs. second of a back-to-back. Quote
Claude Balls Posted April 10, 2021 Report Posted April 10, 2021 Ric Selling - " Pu was right there on his doorstep". Made me chuckle. Amerks 1 Cleveland 0 early in the first. Luce with the goal from the point. 2 Quote
Claude Balls Posted April 10, 2021 Report Posted April 10, 2021 Crazy first period. 3-2 Cleveland after 20 mins. Luce and Fogarty with the Amerk goals. Quote
Claude Balls Posted April 10, 2021 Report Posted April 10, 2021 Wtf, feel like I'm watching the Sabres. 6 mins left in the 2nd. Cle 5, Roc 2. SOG Cle 26, Roc 9. UPL just got yanked as well. Quote

Claude Balls Posted April 11, 2021 Report Posted April 11, 2021 Final was 9-2. Cleveland with 9 different goal scorers. SOG Cle 36, Roc 14. PPs Cle 4/9, Roc 0/2. Refs were just as bad as the Amerks. Ugliest game I've seen in years. 1 Quote

dudacek Posted April 11, 2021 Report Posted April 11, 2021 (edited) Just for some perspective here, Fogarty, Elie and Dalton Smith are the only AHL vets in the lineup. Pekar, Quinn, Samuelsson, UPL and Laaksonen are rookies, Murray and Fitzgerald are 2nd year guys. R2, Asplund, Bryson, Oglevie, Davidson, Tokarski, Borgen, Smith and Dea are all unavailable and the rest are guys you never heard of. Edited April 11, 2021 by dudacek 2 Quote
