2024-25 Rockford Icehogs season

[OldScool]

It is not that the Icehogs are getting barrage with shots agaibst...Could be just BAD GOALTENDING for the high scores agaivst ?

Commesso and Weekes have stunk...

It's the quality of shots. Milwaukee had tons of traffic/tips/screens/better rebound position out muscling Hogs defenseman. Admirals looked liked men playing against boys this weekend which is expected as Admirals are a veteran team.

Question for those watching Ice Hog's , Has Samuel Savoie lost his agitating edge ?

He looks fast. Haven't noticed him agitating at all to be honest.

Fast is fine but being Andrew Shaw part 2 is his ticket to the show ,imo Possibly once he gets some more games under his belt (after Injury) he'll step up the nasty .

 

[Mrfenn92]

Leshunov sent to Rockford

 

[WarriorofTime]

The $80,000 question is will he start paired with Korchinski or Del Mastro?

 

[BHawk21]

Del Mastro-Levshunov
Korchinski-Crevier

 

[kmwtrucks]

I really hope LEV looks solid. Demidov has 5 G 6 A in 18 games in 10mins of ice time per game and all the points are Ev. Compared to Mickov last year had 19 (15EV) 22 A in 47 games with 17mins per game.

It should be EDM. He’s very sound defensively which will help Lev adjust, while Korch is still a ride in his own end.

Hawks will draft a Forward in the upcoming draft. Onward and forward imo.

we have forwards we need another one that projects as a top line forward. at this point Hagens, Misa frondell, Martone look to be the ones in that Category so top 5 is needed. the russian, Mcqueen, spence seem more like 2nd line players IMO

 

[dj Mahoney]

Should be interesting to see how much leash Levshunov is given . And If he has the green light this could really spark Korchinski to "Paul Coffey" it as well .

Hogs win 5-3

G) Guttman Hayes Fitzgerald, Dach, Rolston

A) Savoie twice, Lehsunov, Seney, Korchinski, Guttman, Marcel

 

[statswatcher]

manitoba talk radio says the hogs are unstructured, and that this hindered them in the first but helped them in the second. i guess that's one way to pay a compliment.

 

[Hattrick Kane]

Hogs uo 3-2 third

G) Guttman Hayes Fitzgerald

A) Savoie twice, Lehsunov, Seney, Korchinski

Won’t be shocked to see Savoie up in a bottom six role later in the year. His game is tailor made for it, Andrew Shaw-esque.

Saw most of the game today

KK, Nazar, Lev, Edmonton, Savoie, and Slaggert all looked good.

If I hadn't known Lev was an 18yo (turning 19 in two days) playing his first pro game, I would've thought he was probably in his early 20s and playing in his 2nd or 3rd AHL season. Wasn't perfect defensively, but was the best RD.

KK and EDM were both solid in entirely different ways. KK was fast and generated a lot off the back end, EDM was slower but made a lot of good defensive plays, especially near the blue line.

Nazar had some misplays where he should've shot instead of making a pass to a covered teammate off the rush. But he still seemed to generate noticeably more scoring chances than anyone else.

Savoie and Slaggert play fast. Savoie a bit like Shaw, but would've been nice to see a bit more snarl. Slaggert looks identical to what Hagel was like with the Hawks; maybe with a worse shot. Be interesting if he can, with time, translate that level of play up here.

Was Marcel hitting at all?

 

[CallMeShaft]

Marcel was noticeable, yes. Not a lot of big hits, but good work along the boards.

 

[Mrfenn92]

Marcel gonna get a elc kids

Listening in on Manitoba talk radio. That's dedication

Nazar and Slaggert are money on the PK.

Tons of pressure and speed.

Agreed. They generate a ton of odd-man rushes on the kill.
