Growing up in East Texas i observed someone wearing a poppy on Veterans Day approximately zero times. I didn't know it was a thing until I started watching hockey.

I suspect this means Bichsel will be on the top PP unit tonight

 

[Kcb12345]

Stankoven another early goal. I missed this one tho. 1-0 Texas

 

[Kcb12345]

Gurianov ties it up. 1-1

Gurianov ties it up. 1-1

Good shot too

 

[TangoMcBride]

Stankoven is too good for the AHL.

 

[Kcb12345]

Texas down 2-1 off a rebound goal.

 

[Hull Fan]

Stranges has hit the post at least 4 times already this season. He's picking up points and supposedly playing well but man is he snake bitten with his shot right now.

 

[Kcb12345]

Christian Kyrou rips his first AHL goal home. 2-2 game. 6 minutes left in the 2nd

 

[Kcb12345]

Speaking of Stranges, he just got stopped on a prime scoring chance off a 2 on 1 opportunity. He is pretty snakebitten for sure. Could easily have a lot more points

He’s an offense generating machine though. If they start going in for him baby stars are gonna cook

 

[Kcb12345]

Texas gives up a late one in the 2nd. 3-2 game

I guess if I didn’t come it wouldn’t have been a sellout!

 

[Kcb12345]

Gavin White -> Damiani -> Caamano tie game midway through the 3rd

 

[Kcb12345]

Felhaber gets his revenge now on Texas. 4-3 on the powerplay

 

[Kcb12345]

Bourque with a one-timer ties the game with 48 seconds left! Great no look pass by McKenzie

 

[Kcb12345]

Karlstrom falls down and Texas loses in OT. Horrendous coverage it was a 3 on 2 and without a single pass they basically gave up a breakaway out of it lol let the puck carrier walk all the way in and Karlstrom never recovered after falling down just barely behind the play

 

[Kcb12345]

Here's Kyrou's first AHL goal

 

[Klockis]

How has Grushnikov been so far? I haven't seen our HF scouting department mention him just yet.

He's good defensively, but there's not an ounce of offense in his body that's for sure.

Imo, basically Hakanpaa level offensive player but a good skater. Hakanpaa is more aggressive offensively. Can't say I've ever seen Grushnikov join the rush or even go as low as the faceoff circle in the offensive zone lol. An occasional point shot that will usually go wide

Thanks! Hopefully he can develop into a younger Hakanpää type player. Would be quite the haul getting a third NHL regular from that draft.

Remember... its a WWI holiday. East Texas didn't exist in 1918. The Poppy thing is very much a European/Canadian thing.

Hey, don't lump us all in with the stinking Bongers. The Poppy is an anglo-world thing. E.g. the French use a different flower.
