Hinostroza is 30 and a known quantity at the NHL level. We don't need any more tweeners at the NHL level, although he's nice to have in the event of injury issues.

Kemell probably isn't that close to being called up and may not produce if he did get the chance, but at least it would be a look at someone new that has a chance to keep getting better.
I would definitely let Kemell get on a nice roll in Milwaukee this season, I wouldn't call him up unless we were so decimated by injuries that he had guaranteed top-6 utilization and a spot on the PP. There's really no point in just bringing him up to ride the pines or eat hot dogs. Which is almost certainly what would happen to him under Bruno.

I don't see any point in switching Jankowski and Hinostroza either. They're both going to do great in the AHL, and nothing in the NHL. Anyway, the main things the Preds need to fix are more systematic and getting some bigger name players producing, fiddling with the finer details isn't really going to make a difference.

I do think there's a chance Parssinen would clear waivers, and agree that Tomasino probably wouldn't. But I don't see any use in sending Parssinen back down. He's not going to get faster, and he's already a good enough player to be playing every day if they were willing to use him. More time in the AHL isn't really going to help him get better. They're both at the stage of needing more time in the NHL. Or a change of scenery if that's what it takes to get the time in the NHL.

Just stat watching it looked like Kemell had a slow start to the season before exploding in the last game right? A hat trick and a 5 point night is incredibly impressive I do think he needs to show more consistency before he gets the call up.

Ozzy up next?
He better not be. No disrespect intended to him, it's really nice that we found a player on the scrap heap who we feel is worth keeping and who has resurrected his prospect value in our organization. Go Ozzy! But... he has 2 assists in 6 games. I get he plays with energy and the team likes his enthusiasm, but... we don't need a smaller version of Nick Cousins up to save the day on our 4th line right now, do we? :dunno:

Dunno but could he really be worse than what we've seen out of most of our 4th line this season? Ain't like you couldn't waive McCarron and Smith and anyone would take them, and even if they did they would probably be doing you a favor.

Milwaukee
After a week off, the Admirals play in Winnipeg versus the Moose. The Ads have won 6 in a row.

Ozzy will be playing tonight, after missing a game.

Last year, the Ads won 5 of 8 games versus the Moose, 3 of those on the road.

The western Canadian Matt Murray will be in goal, seeking his 5th win of the season, with .940%
The Admirals have 14 Canadian born players on the roster this year. I expect a good effort.
Karl Taylor mentioned that the Ads have been winning 47% of face offs. He wants that to be 55%.

The other starters were Jake Livingstone and Kevin Gravel on defense. Lucchini centers Vinnie Hinostroza with Reid Schaefer on the left wing. Lucchini is wearing an A in place of Del Gaizo.

Schaefer (5) scores 7 minutes into the game on the blocker side, Hinostroza (8) gets his AHL leading 12th point (7 game point streak) and Lucchini (4) had the second assist.

In the last 10 seconds, Kieffer Bellows (4) scored a PPG with assists to Fedor Svechkov (2) and Vinnie Hinostroza (9) to make it 2-0 Admirals.

Milwaukee gets another PP carrying over to Period 2. The SOG were 10-8 Moose. The Moose were 0 for 3 on the PP. The Ads were 1 for 2 so far, with a 1:50 still coming in Period 2.


Adam Wilsby was playing with Ryan Ufko; Nick Blankenburg with Luke Prokop on defense.

Ozzy is playing with Ratcliffe and Angello.

The PK is O'Reilly and Kemell.
PK2 is Lucchini and Schaefer with Wilsby and Blankenburg.
PK3 was Angello with Wilsby and Blankenburg.

The PP1 was Ozzy, Vinnie and Bellows with Svechkov and Blankenburg.


In Period 2, the Moose scored about 3 minutes in to make it 2-1 Admirals.
The Moose scored a shorty to make it 2-2. On the NEXT face off, Reid Schaefer (6) scored an unassisted PPG backhander over the glove to make it 3-2 Ads.

That was Milwaukee's second PPG of the game with 7:15 remaining in Period 2. (This is the first time this season in eight games that Milwaukee has scored two PPGs in a game.) The SOG were 10-8 Moose again. The totals are 20 to 16, so far.
