That Aud Smell Posted January 6, 2021 Report Posted January 6, 2021 14 hours ago, North Buffalo said: Z Train not good... That really, really stinks, especially in the wake of the new contract (the price of which many here questioned) and the value that RaKru clearly places on Zemgus. I saw a quote from RaKru yesterday to the effect that Zemgus brings a very specific set of elements to the game and therefore fills a specific role on this team (he used some RaKru speak to convey that; I just can't recall what it was ). 8 hours ago, Taro T said: Would expect Thompson to be given the 1st crack at it. Can Reider play his off wing? If so, guessing he'd get the next chance. And if neither of those 2 lock it down, expect Mittelstadt or Cozens in that role in that order. My post above leads me to doubt that either of those two players would be tapped to fill Zemgus's role. But stranger things have happened, I suppose. Quote
Brawndo Posted January 6, 2021 Report Posted January 6, 2021 Ryan Jones signed an AHL Deal with the Amerks in August. The PTO allows Him some practice time with the players bound for Rochester before their camp opens up Quote

OK, who are you giving a crack at that role above those 2? They have Sheahan & Lazar as alternates or are they going to Asplund (w/ no NHL experience to speak of), Ruutsalainen (see previous comment but skipping the "to speak of part" 😉 ), CJ Smith, or could go for somebody outside the organization. Do any of those guys get a crack 1st? Quote

Oh, and I meant to post this last night and can't recall whether I did. 1 Quote

Taro T Posted January 6, 2021 Report Posted January 6, 2021 Good thing they have extra bodies in the taxi squad because at this rate they'll be down about 12 skaters by the time camp breaks. Nevermind. Quote
