inkman Posted February 5, 2021 Report Posted February 5, 2021 (edited) Tonight kicks off the Amerks season. A few familiar faces with Jacob Bryson leading the way. Tons of new players and prospects with Jack Quinn leading the way who unfortunately won’t play tonight due to quarantine. Dalton Smith, JS Dea are returning to lead the veteran group. Exciting prospects Pekar, Samuelsson, Laaksonon, UPL, Quinn, lead the charge from the youth. Tons of college free agents were signed to fill out the roster. The athletic has a write up behind their pay wall. If you subscribe, you can get the deets there. I suspect this season will be more about development than anything else with these ad hoc lineups and call ups due to COVID. The kids we play be most interested in will be Bryson, Quinn and UPL. Having a couple pests like Dalton Smith and Matej Pekar should make most games watchable. Edited February 5, 2021 by inkman 1 2 Quote
Eleven Posted February 5, 2021 Report Posted February 5, 2021 Is this on Buffalo CW (WNLO) or just Rochester? Quote

Any idea which other games will be broadcast there? 1 minute ago, Eleven said: Is this on Buffalo CW (WNLO) or just Rochester? Guessing just the Ra-cha-cha one. Don't have access to the Buffalo market programming guide to say for certain. Edited February 5, 2021 by Taro T Quote

OhMyDahlin Posted February 5, 2021 Report Posted February 5, 2021 Remember Jesper Olofsson...what happened to that guy? He wasn't in camp and he's not on the roster. Quote
JimS Posted February 6, 2021 Report Posted February 6, 2021 Jesper Olofsson stayed home to play due to all the uncertainty. I am looking forward to seeing Dalton Smith, he worked on his skating and skills in the off season. UPL as well, he needs to show the AHL isn't too big for him. Red jerseys are sweet. 3 Quote

inkman Posted February 6, 2021 Author Report Posted February 6, 2021 Pekar in the starting line up Quote
Andrew Amerk Posted February 6, 2021 Report Posted February 6, 2021 For those not watching, 1-1 after the first. Amerks came out rusty but started picking up the play as the period went on. Shots 13-4 currently. 1 Quote
Andrew Amerk Posted February 6, 2021 Report Posted February 6, 2021 Amerks with a bit of a momentum loss in the 2nd. Taking a lot of penalties. Down 2-1 after 2. Up in shots 24-18. Quote
DarthEbriate Posted February 6, 2021 Report Posted February 6, 2021 Huh. It's opening night and we still only have 17 skaters dressed and 7 of which are defensemen? I mean, sure Quinn and Elie are in quarantine but that could have been planned for weeks ago. And they waited until yesterday/today to sign Olofsson the Jesper? What in blazes? All that to say, Go Amerks! I hope we win. Quote
Brawndo Posted February 6, 2021 Report Posted February 6, 2021 Artuu with the PPG from Olofsson’s Office 1 Quote

Norcal Posted February 6, 2021 Report Posted February 6, 2021 Fun to watch hockey with Sabres prospects. Asplund looked fast. That shot by R2 was nice, he put his whole everything into it. I sprung for AHLTV for the heck of it. Quote
