Barracuda News & Discussion VII
- Thread starter WTFetus
- Start date
Just replays of all the goals last night. Tucson's play by play guy is... something.
Stuff happened so quick at the end of the game, Tucson scored four goals in the last six minutes of the third. Most of the game wasn't that lopsided, but the last half of that third period was brutal.
Last game tonight. Let's finally put this team out of its misery.

Apparently nobody wants to put a video out of the incident from last night.
So. Fine. I'll do it myself.
Had barely even sat down and Tucson has made it 1-0. 24 seconds in. Hebig is credited for it, but Kinal might've just kicked it in.
(Edit: Been changed to John Leonard's goal, so yes it must've just gone in off Kinal)

Nollenberger just randomly dropping the tidbit that Ethan Frisch signed a 2-year AHL deal this past offseason, so he's under contract next season. Last game of the year and this is the first I'm hearing of this.
Awesome news to hear, let's go.
As I'm typing that, Gannon Laroque also scores his first AHL goal to make it 2-1 Cuda. Two first goals for guys who have had injury troubles all year.

End of the first, 2-1 Cuda. Hard to judge Carriere in net yet, as Tucson only managed to get two shots on goal.
McCartney tries to go after Vincent after the buzzer, Vincent's been getting under the skin of the Roadrunners so far tonight.

Bystedt! 3-1 Cuda
Joe Carroll steals it and just slides it to a wide open Bystedt for a one-timer.
That's your score after two periods. Hesitate to say this, but while Tucson has brought the physicality, the rest of their execution has been lacking so far.

Good god. 4-3 Roadrunners. Flashbacks to yesterday, we are just coming apart all of a sudden.
McCartney then with a dirty-looking hit to Vincent, and he drops the gloves with Kinal.
This season is my fault, I'm pretty sure. Sorry everyone.

And a third Barracuda player with his first AHL goal tonight. This time it's Mason Klee, with a point shot that just finds its way through. So we've got a tie game with about half of the third period still to go. 4-4.
This game is still a bit of a powder keg, somehow. Hunter Drew keeps trying to find a fight partner, which is such an odd thing to be doing with the score tied in the third.

Nollenberger also dropped hint there will be a prospect scrimmage circa 7/4.

I guess we'll wait and see if anything happens with the staff in the coming days, but that was a fun way to end the season, even including that stupid collapse at the start of the third. For anyone unaware by now, the Barracuda went to overtime 16 times over the course of the season. We did win one shootout, but this is the first time we won in the overtime period. The other 14 resulted in losses.
Bystedt finishes the season with 7 points in 8 games, and it's a shame that's all the games he gets. I liked the way he looked today. Yesterday less so.
It's a weird contradiction. I'm enthused about many of the guys we've got returning next season, though we won't really know what this team will look like until we know what the Sharks' plan is. At the same time though, I've been following this team all nine years and this might've been my least favorite season watching the team. And that includes that one year we ended the season by losing 15 straight.
Lot of reasons. Being let down by higher expectations, our demoralizing knack for suddenly giving up multiple goals in a short span of time (see: both games this weekend), no real reward for doing well down here, and- this is more of a personal one- I felt like the team lacked personality, and lost a bit of the entertainment factor.
Anyway. I could write a lot on this team and the guys on it, but even this post is already long-winded. Go Cuda.

Well, like I said in the Quinn thread, David Quinn leaving should mean McCarthy will be using a different system, so we'll see if that's a positive step.
I wouldn't describe my reaction to this as "optimistic." More just curious if it goes any better.

Why'd he bring up the assistants' contracts expiring in that previous interview then? Ugh.
The defense and the PK need to be fixed. Those are the two areas that killed us. This is a bit of a canned answer from Grier, but I still feel like saying it. Defense needs to be better, not hardness or whatever. That's why I thought they might look at moving on from Mass.
If the coaching staff is coming back, they're coming back. That wouldn't have been what I'd have gone with, but no use moaning about it for months.
