Interesting. Didn’t see that coming.

 

[vorky]

confirmed by agent

 

[hohosaregood]

man we've come a long way from chmelevski being one of our top prospects

 

[Jargon]

a dark time, that.

I find it super strange that he’d go to Russia right now, considering the situation there.

He’s young and he speaks Russian. He’s going for the payday and to see if he can resurrect his career with more ice time. Some would have you believe that this is only because he’s not an NHL regular yet, but it’s more complicated than that. He has to think about his future after hockey, along with his future in hockey.

Yeah, but he’s American-born, I believe. I’m speaking as someone who was born in Kyiv and came here when I was 5, I can’t imagine anyone willingly making a decision to go back to Russia right now, career or not. But I guess he’s hoping the benefits outweigh the risks.

Yeah. He’s from the LA area.

 

[landshark]

Yeah. He’s from the LA area.

Huntington Beach native...

[Hobocop]

So looks like Oct. 8 will technically be the first Barracuda game at the new arena.

 

[Hobocop]

More jersey teasers.

 

[hohosaregood]

More jersey teasers.

oh that's a promising color scheme

 

[LadyStanley]

Hmmm

Introduction

 

[Hobocop]

There's the new name/logo for Calgary's affiliate.

 

[LadyStanley]

With ECHL LV Wranglers dropping the nickname, kinda made sense.

 

[WTFetus]

Didn't the LV Wranglers disband almost a decade ago? There was already a Calgary Wranglers in the 70s, and it's not like there isn't already overlap in ECHL/AHL/NHL team names.

 

[Solmors]

The Barracuda have chosen their new Head and Assistant Athletic Trainers, but I will hold off on sharing their names until an official announcement is out.
