Barracuda News & Discussion VII

[Lebanezer]

Any timeline on Chernyshov?

I saw an unsubstantiated rumor on twitter that he should be ready the first week of January.

Joe Carroll has been loaned to Team Canada for the Spengler Cup.

It seems like an odd choice, Carroll has been playing in the ECHL all season but is still under Barracuda contract, but then the Spengler Cup is a bit of an odd tournament.

Okay, so they finally changed both of our third period goals vs. CV today (a couple days after the game)

Goal 4: Cagnoni (Bystedt, Gushchin)
Goal 5 (EN): Furlong (Vincent, Poturalski)

So no more two-point game for Graf, Furlong does indeed now have his first AHL goal, and Poturalski actually finished the game with FOUR points, not three.

I'm pretty sure I've never seen a game where they had to change the scoring on more than one goal days later.

Last game of the road trip, we come back to San Jose tomorrow to face these same Condors.

First game of eight this season we have against Bakersfield.

Alright, well White's back out, with Vanroboys in. First time the original line 4 has been together in a long time.

Coe comes in for the first time in a while, replaces Bordeleau. Not sure what's up there.

Condors are wearing some red alternates which are a very weird clash with the rest of their gear, IMO (edit: Ok, they were just warmups. That's a good thing).

Nollenberger points out that Bakersfield has the worst power play in the league (10.9%), and in fact they've yet to score a PPG at home.

White still dealing with the foot issue, Bordeleau with "undisclosed injury."

 

[LadyStanley]

Condors came out in white for game.

So odd to me that the Barracuda seem to have just a few ads that they then play all year. They keep playing this Toyota ad advertising a deal on tires that's Halloween-themed (since the season started in October)

It's why last year the DGDG guy kept declaring "Fall is in the air" during ad breaks.

Barracuda looking a little flat to start this one. Schuldt with a rare miscue and turnover that Romanov bails him out on with a big glove save.
