Edmonds and Groshev have looked good

 

[Felonious Python]

They're working hard, but there's a lack of structure.

 

[Point21]

god damn Huuhtanen has an absolute rocket of a shot

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

Huuhtanen with his one timer on the pp from Stammer's office. Wanna see that more for Syracuse this year

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

Great set up by Gill for Roelens

 

[Felonious Python]

I like that Joel Bouchard doesn't appear to be taking this game lightly.

It's not Game 7, but if you're wearing the logo, why not put the effort in?

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

Hopefully Meneghin gets the other 2 games

 

[Point21]

god i really hope Huuhtanen gets a real good look in camp to be on the 2nd line. dude oozes 2nd line power-forward with 30+ goal upside

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

Bad play by Edmonds on otherwise a pretty good game for him

 

[JTBF81]

Geekie, Groshev, Edmonds, Dureau and Hay looked solid out there. While Geekie probably needs some time in Syracuse before being promoted, I'm sure he'll get a good look in camp. Huuhtanen maybe for next season if he does well in Syracuse this year. I'd guess Groshev, Goncalves, Ylonen, Geekie and maybe Edmonds will be in the mix for the last roster spot.

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

Nice goal for Geekie in the shootout

 

[Felonious Python]

The first game is the sloppiest, and today didn't disappoint.

It's too early for most player assessments, but Conor Geekie has that extra level to him.

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

It's September 13th. The important thing is seeing how players progress through the 2nd and 3rd game of this tournament, and then into the main camp and preseason if they're lucky enough to get into a game or 2. Jaydon Dureau had some moments. Good for him. This is obviously a big year for him trying to earn a 2nd contract and stick in the AHL. Gill, who missed a lot of time last year, had some moments as well. Just good to see him healthy. He's got some offensive ability to him which balances nicely to some of the other more defensive minded dmen we have. As best as I can recall, Gauthier had the biggest hit for the Baby Bolts in the 1st period. Good game for Groshev and Geekie who imo are the most likely of all the young forwards to battle for a roster spot come training camp. Groshev did very well in this tournament last year and carried that over into the preseason with a goal against Juuse Saros, while going around Ryan O'Reilly. He can set himself up nicely here in Nashville to do the same again this year and potentially take someone's job, because how hard should it be really to unseat Sheary? I don't think they rush Duke or Huuhtanen. I was happy to see Lucas Edmonds made a very good impression today. We all know he has talent, but he's been through ups and downs the past 2 years in Syracuse. Hopefully getting on the board today, wearing the 'A', it's a little bit of a confidence boost. Let's see if he can get going.

I have really high hopes for Edmunds to get back to the 2nd half of his rookie year where he absolutely went on a heater.

I tried to predict who would wear the letters. I got it right, but I figured it'd be Edmonds because of a lack of options at forward.

It'd be a guy the coaches already knew, which pretty much leaves Edmonds, Groshev, and Allard. Allard was an invitee, so that was probably out. Groshev is relatively new to NA hockey, so language might be a barrier.

There's a good chance Edmonds did that math as well.

 

[These Are The Days]

Didn't get to watch. How did the G Unit look? Geekie, Groshev, Goncalves? Did they all even play?

Goncalves isn’t here, but Geekie and Groshev are and they looked good last night. Started out on different lines and then came together in the 2nd. They play again tonight

Thanks Days. I hadn't even looked at the lineup to be honest. I'm just hoping for positives

 

[LordStanlersCup]

I am pretty sure they broke the link to yesterday's game as they did to last years so I am going to be posting it here in case anybody missed it.

Groshev-Geekie-Gauthier as a line today.

G-Unit is now canon.

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

Groshev gets a letter today in place of Lilleberg

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

Nice steal by Gauthier
