Recalled/Assigned: 2023-24 Colorado Eagles and Utah Grizzlies (ECHL)

  • We sincerely apologize for the extended downtime. Our hosting provider, XenForo Cloud, encountered a major issue with their backup system, which unfortunately resulted in the loss of some critical data from the past year.

    What This Means for You:

    • If you created an account after March 2024, it no longer exists. You will need to sign up again to access the forum.
    • If you registered before March 2024 but changed your email, username, or password in the past year, those changes were lost. You’ll need to update your account details manually once you're logged in.
    • Threads and posts created within the last year have been restored.
    • Our 2025 light and dark themes were lost, so we are rebuilding them. Light theme is currently available, but work in progress

    Our team is working with Xenforo Cloud to recover data using backups, sitemaps, and other available resources. We know this is frustrating, and we deeply regret the impact on our community. We are taking steps with Xenforo Cloud to ensure this never happens again. This is work in progress. Thank you for your patience and support as we work through this.

    In the meantime, feel free to join our Discord Server

I honestly don't think Bednar is wrong here. OO basically took a nosedive the instant he came to North America, with a meh OHL season and now a couple of meh pro seasons (and meh is generous here). He's also just not a Bednar type of player at all. Like Kaut, he's a lousy fit for us, but unlike Kaut he isn't even good enough to be a successful AHL player.
No, I don't think he's wrong, but it's kinda hilarious how, the few times he's been in the lineup, Bednar gives him the most scant ice time I've ever seen him give a player. The game where they supposedly "showcased" him for a trade to the Canucks, who were the opponent that night, he may have played a max of two shifts. Maybe.
 
New goalie is not it. Team let him get shelled but a couple he shoulda had.

Kovy looks great. Always in the right spot, but the talent around him is lacking.

Behrens is playing smart.

Yeah the goalie definitely ain't it

Yeah not at all uncommon for rookies
It took until this season for LOC to really be able to sustain 3rd line minutes with high energy. I'm not sure anyone really keeps the pedal floored entirely but learning "when" you can back off for a second to conserve energy within Bednar's system is tough. I think that's what troubled LOC the first couple of times he was tried on the 3rd. He was either choosing the wrong spots and it was burning him or he just didn't have the conditioning built up to last yet.
