inkman Posted November 17, 2021 Report Posted November 17, 2021 Jack Quinn and your Rochester Americans face off against the armpit of the state, Utica. Quote
Amerks8796 Posted November 17, 2021 Report Posted November 17, 2021 If Utica wins, they’ll tie the 1984 Amerks who have the record for the most consecutive wins to start an AHL season. Hope it’s a little extra motivation. 1 1 Quote

Well if he manages to keep this team in check he will be doing OK. They are lighting everyone up so far including the Amerks twice already. I'd say anything 3 goals or less is a positive development. 1 Quote

Which one died, Steely or Dan?? On another note, who on Utica appears to be on the fast track to playing in the NHL (Devils)? Other than Foote none of their names stick out to me.

Both goalies are under 21 and playing really well, but that'll be some time id guess. Quote

Free for Sabres STHers that did the full season this year. (Not sure about if it's also available to 1/2 season holders or those that deferred. Expe t not, but doesn't hurt to ask.) And the nicknamed is pronounced Oopy. 1 Quote

Donald Fagen, the voice and front man, still plugging away. 2 minutes ago, Taro T said: Free for Sabres STHers that did the full season this year.

No they (1/2 & 1/4 season STHers ) aren't eligible for SabreBucks. So don't expect they will get the Amerks TV. But again, doesn't hurt to ask. They also won't get priority to buy Heritage Classic tix. Edited November 17, 2021 by Taro T Clarity Quote
LabattBlue Posted November 17, 2021 Report Posted November 17, 2021 Since Krebs was acquired and assigned to Rochester, I've considered buying AHL TV for the season, but my luck would be, the next day Krebs, Peterka and Quinn all get called up. 😂 1 Quote

No commercials is also nice. Quote
DarthEbriate Posted November 17, 2021 Report Posted November 17, 2021 How are the play features of AHL TV? Easy skip-ahead, skip-back dragbars? Little pop-up icons where the goals take place and periods start? (like what NHL TV had and what ESPN+ is sorely lacking)? I mean... DarthEbriate can't start commenting on the Younglings games, too. That's too much effort. But I could watch the games. Quote

That's too much effort. But I could watch the games. None of that. It's a stream provided by the home team. There are close ups and replays but it's not like a real TV production. You do have the ability to rewind and all the games are archived to watch on demand. 1 Quote
Norcal Posted November 17, 2021 Report Posted November 17, 2021 The Amerks only have the play by play guy on the road and Ric Seiling does color on most home games. They do have graphics and features but it's mostly a no frills broadcast with some quirky angles and weird replays that don't match up at times. It's fun as heck to watch the kids this year though, that's for sure!! 1 Quote

It is and I’m happy I did it, at least so far. The production values are not good. You are watching the scoreboard feed, the lighting is bad, the replays are unpredictable and Don Stevens thinks every player is JJ Peterka. 1 2 Quote

The legal way in the States is via AHL.tv, specifically w/ either the Amerks package ($64.95 for all Amerks games w/ home or away audio) or the full league pass which is something like 2-3x the single team package price. Pretty sure that's the provider in CA as well, but our Canadian friends would know who it is for certain. Quote
