Charlotte is freaking buzzing

Unless we offer him a one way deal, I have to imagine Pots might move on this offseason.

I remember him being unimpressive in his cup of coffee couple seasons ago. I'd being willing to give him another look though. He may be one of those really good ahl players but that's it.

I don't disagree, I'm just thinking about things from his perspective.

Geekie might as well go **** Marchment's mother at this point

Damn Toronto is dirty, just been catching the 3rd tonight (AHLTV)...in 1 play Geekie got knocked down and stood over, kicked in the back of the head (intentionally by the guy as he "stepped over" him), then right after he got wide open skating into the zone for a shot and got taken down into the boards after the shot was made and he started skating past the goal

I am still wary of him at the NHL level, but Roy got dat Jagr ass at the AHL level.

 

[Roboturner913]

Anyone else noticed that Necas "centers" his line when the Checkers have the puck then Brown takes the defensive responsibilities.

Not all that different from the way Skinner used to operate when he was on the 3rd line years ago.

Marlies tie, bah

 

[HisIceness]

Marlies tied it, damn

 

[WreckingCrew]

Can't hold a lead tonight

 

[Roboturner913]

Apots has improved every single year he's been in the organization and he's the team's leading scorer. What more can you ask? Even if the org doesn't think he's good enough, he should at least get the chance.

 

[WreckingCrew]

So much diving by Toronto lol They could challenge the penguins

 

[Finlandia WOAT]

Necas with the wheels and hands to make a 2 on 1 out of against a set transition defense.

They may end up wrong, but producing a lot at the age he's at means nothing. If they don't think he's good enough to hack it at the NHL level, it'd be dumb to waste your time playing him there.

Checkers need to stop with the unforced turnovers.

 

[Finlandia WOAT]

Also Tomas Jurco is a bad AHL player lol.

He's no Cliff Pu, or something.

If Derek Ryan can be an almost 40 point player in the NHL, I don't see why Pots couldn't be. Similar skillsets, and Pots is probably the better goal scorer.

He could just be Keith Aucoin. If he ever get a long chance from someone, we'll see.

 

[HisIceness]

Overtime.

 

[A Star is Burns]

Checkers lose on the hat trick in OT

 

[HisIceness]

Damn it

Ryan is a pretty good skater and had his former junior coach who was in love with him give him a shot. Poturalski is a meh skater and has no connections.

 

[Fumble]

Overall a very sloppy game by the Checkers.
Saarela hustle through out the game was impressive, and Roy plays like a beast.
Felt Necas could have hustled more, and Gauthier although showed flashes of playing like a beast played a little quieter than I would like.
I'm a Carrick fan...but think he played a slow and sloppy game tonight.
Hopefully Ned bounces back for tomorrow's game
