Barracuda News & Discussion VII

[tjziel]

Yep. Valid question, if they stay long-term. Mitchell Russell comes out, and then after that I don't know, since Coe is doing well enough to get some ice time at the moment. That's not to mention Tristen Robins hopefully getting back into the lineup soon. It's now crowded.

It'll be worth seeing the lines this weekend, as McCarthy juggled the lines and split up the fourth line in the process during the later stages of Sunday's game. Those three have been terrific together, but individually a couple of them might be vulnerable to the numbers game. But the team was playing like garbage, so that could've just been him throwing stuff at the wall.

Ya I’m sorry to keep asking but I’ve been on Halttunen watch and we need him to come back to London to help our PP and get us a Memorial Cup. Looks like he would be hard pressed to get back onto the 3rd line right now.

Unless someone else is getting called up like Colin Graf.

Send him back down to London, let him get his mojo back offensively and we’ll send him back to the Barracuda as a even better player.

Gushchin - Poturalski - Graf
Bordeleau - Bystedt - Cardwell
Coe - White - Bailey
Houle - Robins - Vincent

If that is somewhat close to what your lines will be, I don’t see any room for Halttunen. Not to mention you will have to sub in Sabourin, Vanroboys and Grainger.

Was looking at the leading scorers for the Barracuda and noticed former LIU Shark Anthony Vincent (He played four years at Holy Cross before transferring for a graduate season).

He's 27 so may be past the point of being considered a "prospect" but with his size seems intriguing.

It looks like he only played twenty-something AHL games last year.

Was he injured and is there any potential for him one day playing for the Sharks (understanding the organization is loaded with younger high end prospects)?

He had a broken collarbone for most of last season.

I mean, he's one of the best energy guys we've had down here on the Cuda, but it's like you said, he's already 27 and I'm not sure they'd use a contract spot to bring him up to be a fourth line grinder. We don't really have room for more forwards in the NHL as it is anyway.

I'd be pulling for him all the way if it happened, I love that guy.

Robins might be back

 

[Hobocop]

No Bystedt?

No Carlson yet either.

 

[Lebanezer]

With the neck guards I feel like the entire AHL is paying tribute to Niklas Sundstrom.

Looks like its a free game on YouTube tonight -

 

[LadyStanley]

Yes. And FB IIRC

1-0 Eagles.

Not a lot of flow to this period. Would help if we could hit the net with our shots.

 

[hotcabbagesoup]

Muhk certainly has his speed and mobility offensively and defensively. Doesn't look like any lingering effects from injuries are hampering him.

 

[Hobocop]

Poturalski makes it 1-1 on the power play. Better play from us late in the period.

 

[hotcabbagesoup]

Bordeleau been physical which is good to see

 

[Hodge]

I really think he's the best defenseman in the org. Hopefully we'll see him in the NHL soon.

 

[Hobocop]

This has been the most pucks going into the crowd I’ve ever seen.

 

[Pinkfloyd]

I watch a game like this and I get impatient and want to let guys like Kostin and Givani Smith go and call up Graf and Cardwell to play in the bottom six on the Sharks instead of Grundstrom and Goodrow or Kunin. Both can help PK and play at NHL speed and get experience.

I think Mukhamadullin will be ready for the Sharks when they come home. If anyone gets injured on the trip, he probably should get the call. Cagnoni is someone I’m convinced will be a productive NHL’er in the future.

Also, please trade one of our goalies immediately and get Askarov in the Sharks net. He’s better and it’s pretty obvious.

 

[Hobocop]

They’re not giving us any space out there, I’ve got to give them that. Hasn’t been the greatest game to watch this season.

Also if anyone is wondering those cowbells are from a few Eagles fans next to the Colorado bench, that’s their whole thing.

Eagles with Cowbells...

 

[Hobocop]

Muk was on the PP2 unit, good sign

 

[Lebanezer]

It makes perfect sense that Cardwell and Gushchin have half of the Barracuda shots.

 

[Hobocop]

Collin Graf, Jesus. Great goal.

2-1 Cuda

 

[Lebanezer]

Oof.

 

[Pinkfloyd]

I don’t know how Gushchin didn’t put that puck in before Graf’s goal. Was a nasty shot.

 

[Hobocop]

Really frustrating loss. Felt like one of those games we’d squander last year. 3-2 Eagles, final.
