Barracuda News & Discussion VII

Watching the replay, the Reign player took advantage of the awkward position Bystedt was in and cross checked him in the midsection directly into the boards. It was totally unnecessary.

Here it is:



I thought it was shoulder when I saw him helped off (the hit was in a part of the ice I can't see very well), but looking at the replay, it does look like he's favoring his leg.

 
I had a good view from my seat there tonight. Bystedt unfortunately put himself in a bad spot in a physical game. He got tackled and probably tore something in the knee; from the referee's gesture to Vincent before the next faceoff, an interior ligament.
 
Musty looks pretty good.
I thought he showed flashes but overall looked overmatched. He was slow to react, struggled to know where to be, looked out of shape, and looked like the lightest player out there. He looked maybe 170 lbs soaking wet and was tentative with any contact.

I’m not discouraged at all. This is a step up for him and he will adjust.

It’s also probably real hard to be dropped into the middle of an AHL season. Which, more kudos to Graf and Lund for surviving their drop ins to the NHL.
