GDT - 1/25/2023 Amerks v. Baby Pens (7:05 ET)

[DarthEbriate]

Vinnie Hinostroza has had a weekend to find an NHL suitor but has now reported to the Amerks.

The Amerks are on a 4-game losing streak, but are still comfortably ahead of the Laval Rocket for fourth in the North division.

Time to go eat some baby Pens. Feast of the Penguins, as narrated by Morgan Freeman.

I wonder what penguins taste like.

Frog.  (Which tastes like chicken. 😉 )

Cook wrote in his diary —“of equal interest to the naturalist and the cook” as he began eating penguins. They taste like “a piece of beef, odiferous cod fish and a canvas-backed duck roasted together in a pot, with blood and cod-liver oil for sauce”.

I would imagine tallowy-beyond-tallowy duck.

Alexander Nylander with a PP goal. Hey! He's a quality AHLer.

Cederqvist responds with his 4th of the season at the front of the crease, but it's under review. 

WBS squad: Captain -- Taylor Fedun! Alternate - Drake Caggiula!  Nylander. And their goalie is Dustin Tokarski (on emergency loan to the Adult Pens). Pittsburgh has become ex-Sabres.

No goal! Reason... high-stick.

Down 2-0 to the Pens after one period. As best I can tell from radio coverage, the Amerks are lining up like this (with arguably their best/most healthy roster possible in the season, minus UPL):

Murray - Biro - Weissbach
Rosen - Malone - Mersch
Rousek - Kulich - Hinostroza
Bjork - Kozak - Cederqvist
(Warren, Jobst, Pekar, Kisakov)

Pilut - Prow
Bartkowski - Priskie
Davies - Eliot 
(Cecconi, Tischke)

Subban
Houser

Haven't been watching closely, but all 3 Amerks goals so far came w/ Hinostroza's line on the ice & he just missed getting a shortie.

[dudacek]

Is Bjork really a 4th-liner on the Amerks now?

[Taro T]

Amerks win 3-2.

Not ignoring your Q @dudacek, didn't watch the game closely enough to say if his was the 3rd or 4th line.

Vinnie 1st star,

Davies 2nd star,

Rousek 3rd star.
