2013-2014 Hartford Wolf Pack/Greenville Road Warriors Thread

[Brooklyn Rangers Fan]

Watching Norfolk/Hartford. For ANA Rakell very good in first. For NYR liked Kreider, McIlrath, and Hrivik.

Corey must be at the game, because McIlrath hasn't spent a lot of time on camera, except for the fight. He's definitely right about Hrivik and Kreider, however - they're playing really well together. Feeding each other back and forth.

Yogan rings the post. Pack absolutely dominating play but still scoreless.

Kreider with a HUGE hit. And another. Playing REALLY well. Where was this in camp?

I think this was a wake up call to CK. The rangers obviously want him to be up BUT they wnat to make sure he will be consistently engaged. With his talent if he is 100% focused the nest few weeks im sure this will be the alst time he is in the AHL

First line looks good on the first shift. More good play by Kreider and Hrivik and then a beautiful move by Lindberg, but loses the puck off his stick as he goes to take a backhander.

Second shift - Kristo with an awful turnover, putting it right on Whitney's stick 20 feet out in the slot, who scores with a snap shot.

Whitney blocks Syvret's shot at the point, goes off on a partial breakaway, but a great snatch by Talbot foils him.

It sounds like kristo is really struggling

 

[Brooklyn Rangers Fan]

Jean with two good chances on two different shifts early in the period.

Pack is absolutely dominating, but can't finish and has been hurt by a couple of bad turnovers.

Same issues - needs to get smarter about WHEN to try the fancy moves. He had a great rush around the D and scoring chance on his next shift.

 

[Brooklyn Rangers Fan]

Pack just finished a PK (boarding call on Johnson) and are now going on the PP.

Talbot and Anderson both playing well.

 

[Colby]

Kreider is such an incredible skater. I really hope it clicks for the kid because he can be so fun to watch.

Lindberg with a great pass through three players to Hrivik who comes in on the goalie, but he holds on to it too long and leaves himself with nothing to shoot at as he gets to the net.

 

[Brooklyn Rangers Fan]

Kreider takes a penalty for sticking up for Hrivik after the defenseman dumps him with a late hit.

Now McIlrath with a big hit behind the net, completely erasing the forward.

 

[HatTrick Swayze]

Kreider just took a penalty. Hrivik got rocked and Kreider flew in to get in the face of the guy who hit him.

IMO it looked like a clean hit but nice to see that kind of fire out of Kreider.

 

[HatTrick Swayze]

McIlrath just drew a slashing penalty to negate a 5-on-3.

Noesen tried to get in his face after to goad McIlrath into a retaliatory penalty, but Mac stayed composed. And instead McIlrath aggressively chirped in Noesen's face, looked like he was about to eat him.

 

[Brooklyn Rangers Fan]

Pack down two men as Haley clears over the glass.

Bickel takes a slash in the slot, bringing it back to 4-3. Good job by McIlrath taking a punch to the chops and not getting drawn into the fight. Hahaha - and then he points to the chin and seems to be saying something to the effect of "c'mon try again; you can do better than that."

 

[Brooklyn Rangers Fan]

Yogan gets knocked down and gets back up and goes with Clark. Mostly a wrestling match.

EDIT: whoops, the Pack are going to start off the third down 2 men for over a minute due to this little altercation.

Hahaha. Exactly.

Loving these updates guys!

It sounds like they have been dominating but just have had some bad luck getting the puck in. Hopefully the 3rd period they get some goals

sounds like they're learning the NYR way already....

My pleasure, guys.

To a certain extent. They've hit at least one post and had a couple good chances get just barely deflected. Anderson has also been very, very good.

A few more shots from sharp angles than I'd like, but they are definitely getting quality chances.

5-on-3 for 1:42 to start the third.

 

[HatTrick Swayze]

Rackell scores early on a pretty cross ice feed. Nothing Talbot could do on that.

 

[Brooklyn Rangers Fan]

Admirals score on the 5-on-3.

McIlrath goes down to try to make a play and the Admiral player hangs onto the puck instead of shooting, passes across while McIlrath is down for the easy slam dunk. Nothing Talbot could do.

 

[Brooklyn Rangers Fan]

Talbot has a good glove hand. Just had his second save where he snatched a puck labeled top corner.

 

[TheTakedown]

at the pack game right now. team looks good, but nobody knows how to shoot/snipe... its getting frustrating. the skating speed/skill is there for sure though

 

[TheTakedown]

Johnson definitely the best player on the ice.

on a related note, bickel is awful
