Barracuda News & Discussion VII

[LadyStanley]

No reason given. Injury? Illness? Performance?

 

[Hobocop]

End of the first period, 2-1 Colorado. Not a very good start from the Cuda. Can't say we had too many chances. Eagles have given us some trouble when they've played us, they're a good team.

I can't really see anything that happened to Romanov that would've caused him to come out of the game, I guess we'll see if Nollenberger mentions anything.

 

[Hobocop]

Romanov left due to a lower body injury.

Dell and/or Askarov to start tomorrow

So Colorado goalie Mandolese takes a penalty for throwing a punch at Lucas Vanroboys after Vanroboys got a little too much contact with him for his liking.

Gushchin scores on the ensuing power play to tie it.

Cagnoni assists. Both he and Gushchin have two points thus far in this one.

 

[Hobocop]

Barracuda go on a 4-on-3 power play and "get a little too cute" as Nollenberger puts it, they get nothing out of it. Too much passing.

It then goes to the other end and Colorado scores almost immediately. Really deflating.

Since I stirred up a ruckus around Bystedt in the other thread, I figure I'll ask here: How is he doing? His production is passable but underwhelming. Does the eye test match that?

Long story short I feel like he's playing well defensively and overthinking things on offense.

 

[Hobocop]

Bordeleau ties it. Good job by that line forcing the turnover.

 

[Hobocop]

You're kidding me. Two on one for Colorado, Ludvig shoots it, Askarov saves it, and the ricochet goes off Tynan's knee and into the net. 4-3 Colorado with three minutes left.

 

[Lebanezer]

Colorado has a goal under review, and I can't believe their goal song. I didn't think anyone use that song anymore.

 

[Hobocop]

Olausson adds an empty netter. Barracuda did pretty much nothing 6 on 5, Colorado just kept making empty net bids from the defensive zone.

And now another, Jacob MacDonald completes the hat trick with it. 6-3.

That's your final.

Knew what song it was as soon as I read this.

Yuuupp.

 

[Hobocop]

They played a better game than us, but man they got some favorable bounces tonight. Power play was 2 for 4, but squandering that 4 on 3 was a killer.

They made some scorekeeping changes, with Thomas Bordeleau being the beneficiary. He gets assists on both goals 1 and 2 now, and Gushchin no longer has an assist on goal 1. So Bordeleau finishes with three points on the night, giving him 6 points in 3 games.

We have Colorado again tomorrow night. We've played them four times at home this season, in two sets of back to backs. Each time, Colorado won the first and we took the second. That's the best we can hope for this time around too.
