Prospect Info: Cedar Park

[piqued]

I'm going through the Wolves roster one by one and it's a trip. It's a mixture of players you knew about at one point but then totally forgot and then others who aren't really prospects or ever had a career but for one reason or another haven't hit the games played requirement to count against the veteran rule. Lots of guys who went to 4 years of college and then broke into the ECHL and are now in their mid to late 20s

Bichsel got a game misconduct for leaving the penalty box after being put in there haha. Left to try and go after the other guy going to the other box

HAHA What!

Bichsel is surprising me, I knew he played hard/mean but the after whistle stuff is surprising for me. Usually Euro guys are way more reserved with the scrums/etc.

OMG he is gonna be fun to watch

Has that Chicago shoulder patch always been there? Makes them look like they're from Washington DC or something

He got rocked by this guy with a big hit and was not happy about it. He's always involved in post whistle scrums though from what I've seen, but usually just stirring the pot to piss people off.

Idk why they didn't close the penalty box door after putting him in there but he tried to take advantage haha.

The chemistry that Stankoven and Bourque already have is off the charts. Excited for the future of those two

Game misconduct - Leaving penalty bench (70.4)

70.4 if anyone is following along in their rulebooks

Honestly, probably the most badass penalty you can get

 

[Kcb12345]

Bourque scores again, this time unassisted into the empty net

 

[eartotheground]

love having our ahl scouts reporting on the youngins

Mav first star, Stank 2nd star

I feel like that actually does mean something in a road barn where you know they want to go homer with it

 

[redbeardtx]

I gave in and bought the $65 AHL tv subscription. Looks like I'm committed now to the Texas Stars games as well this season

Not for nothing, but I'm gonna need your mother's maiden name and the name of your first pet. For security reasons I can't disclose why I need this information

 

[MrHeiskanen]

Looks like abandoning NHL prospects might not be working so well for Chicago.

It's naïve to think that Bourque and Stankoven will continue to produce at a 1.33PPG rate, but if they do, I really wonder about the possibility of them being 'deadline acquisitions' by trading away Marchment/Faksa/Dellandrea. The window to win for the Stars is by no means closing, but you do want to ice your best rosters to contend and Stankoven and Bourque are better than quite a few players on the main roster.

You would take Stankoven/Bourque over Faksa/Dellandrea in a 4th line role in the playoffs?

I donno man. I'm all for getting them in the lineup.. but replacing Marchment & Pavelski next year seems more logical.

I think Stankoven has the motor for that role in playoffs

 

[David Castillo]

I have more at the Substack but the entire sequence on that Stankoven to Bourque on Goal #5 was money.

 

[Kcb12345]

Jeez

 

[piqued]

f*** it, call him up and never go back to that league

 

[Satan]

f*** it, call him up and never go back to that league

i thought he was 100% playing in sweden according to the winterland guy

 

[MrHeiskanen]

Pretty obvious suspension, that is just something you don't do. Good learning experience.

Bichsel exactly as advertised

 

[piqued]

Little did we know Bichsel doesn't have to adjust to North America, North America has to adjust to Bichsel. Soft ass continent
