Abbotsford Canucks Thread | Prospects Starting to Heat Up

[Blue and Green]

Tucson tied it 2-2 after Pettersson lost his balance along the end boards. Then the Roadrunners took their second delay of game penalty-- during the PP, Bains tried a pass that was intercepted, Roadrunners went up ice on a 2-on-1, Silovs made a big save on the initial rush and then another good save on a rebound chance. Eight minutes to go.

 

[Megaterio Llamas]

Hunter Drew snaps another one behind Silovs, this one glove side.

3-2 Tuscon.

Weak job by the forwards in the neutral zone.

 

[Blue and Green]

Tucson hits the empty net in the last minute, 4-2 final.

[Blue and Green]

Try again on that save % for Silovs,

 

[Vector]

First game of the year for me! Hope it’s a good one!

 

[Megaterio Llamas]

Predictably Kudryavtsev is back in, and back on the wrong side where he struggles.

Klimovich a mind boggling offensive zone penalty less than 2 minutes in.

 

[Vector]

Canucks had a 2 on 1 short handed chance but it gets turned aside and the Roadrunners go up the ice and score on their own rush.

 

[Megaterio Llamas]

Josh Doan pops a saucer pass behind Tolopilo with Klimovich in the box early.

1-0 Tuscon

Klimovich a mind boggling offensive zone penalty less than 2 minutes in.

He's picking up right where he left off.

 

[Blue and Green]

Klimovich a mind boggling offensive zone penalty less than 2 minutes in.

Stupid retaliation but the ref in that end totally missed that Agozzino had two-handed Klimovich on the hand/wrist a few seconds earlier.

Klimo always retaliates and if the referee misses it he makes sure he sees the second or the third retaliation.

 

[Megaterio Llamas]

Lekkerimaki thrown against the boards and roughed up pretty good at the bottom of the ensuing dogpile. Canucks to the power play.

Josh Doan in on a breakaway - save Tolopilo.

1-0 Tuscon after the first.

 

[Blue and Green]

Klimovich with a couple of big hits, with Tucson players lying on the ice in his wake Abby gets a scoring chance. Then, Hunter Drew puts a slash on Pettersson and goes to the sin bin. At the end of the PP, Klimovich just bombs a wrist shot from above the top of the faceoff circle. 1-1. What a shot.

 

[Megaterio Llamas]

Klimovich wires a wrister over the glove of Wells from the outer circle. Power play goal.

1-1

Nice to see Sammy Blais get back in

Does Klimovich have an NHL future? Reading above sounds like he has an enticing package of skills.

He has all the tools but, man, I just don’t see how he’d ever be able to contribute to a good team. Makes a lot of very bad decisions or reacts entirely on instinct. He’s still very young, though.

Still some mental gaps. But he's getting better so we'll see what happens. I'd say that he's a C+ prospect.

 

[Megaterio Llamas]

A lucky bounce off the back boards and Stevens puts it in the empty net.

2-1 Abby.

If you can imagine a poor man's Jake Virtanen you probably have a facsimile of Klimovich.

 

[Megaterio Llamas]

Breezer gives it away and Hunter Drew continues his big weekend.

2-2

2-2

That was such an ugly turnover.

 

[Megaterio Llamas]

Austin Poganski finishes a nice three way rush chance and it's 3-2 Tuscon late third.
