Prospect Info: Down On The Farm (Ads and Glads)

[adsfan]

The Ads (19-14-2-3) host the Charlotte Checkers (21-11-3-2) 2nd in the Atlantic Division behind the Hershey Bears.

Murray is in goal. LD Gravel with Ufko. LW Chase De Leo, C is Cal and Ozzy.

"Gnash" is here. He shrunk a lot! My daughter said that the skating Gnash looks tiny. The one in the stands looks like the real Gnash.

Appleby, the Checkers goalie, just threw an elbow at Lucchini at 7 minutes into the game. He must be a graduate of the Ray Emery goaltending school.

Gravel gets a penalty after 2 Checkers started things with him and Angello. Charlotte is playing DIRTY and the refs are allowing it. Expect some fights!

De Leo just got a skate yanked out and no penalty was called! Charlotte players keep yapping at Marino. That was 4 times that I noticed. SOG 14-3. The Ads had 4 penalties called. Somehow, Charlotte had one.


Period 2 begins with a Checkers penalty on Carrick for Interference at 16 seconds. They punched a few Admirals in the head in Period 1 and none of those were called. Now something is going on behind the Checkers net after the whistle!

Carrick elbowed Pavel. Marino beat the snot out of him. Both got 5 minutes. Steeves hit Murray with his stick, then shoved Ozzy to the ice well after the whistle! The IDIOT refs gave Steeves AND Ozzy Roughing minors. The crowd is screaming "Refs You Suck"! Then " You Suck". Four-on-4 Matier goes to the net and Cal (5) knocks the puck into the net. SOG 4-1 Ads with 12 minutes remaining.

38 for Charlotte took a hit from Angello. He has been hitting Ads players with his stick the whole game. Del Gaizo and Matier plastered two Checkers next to their bench. It was Boom, Boom time!!

A penalty was called on Charlotte for Holding the Stick while the Admirals had possession of the puck. WTH? The Ads called for 2 penalties. Livingstone was Holding for 1/10 of a second, then 30 seconds later Kemell is called for Roughing. The first call was ticky-tac. The second seemed to be a phantom penalty. Gravel is REALLY ANGRY. He said nothing to the refs as the Checkers players poured out onto the ice after the horn. About half the Admirals came out in response on the opposite side of the Red Line! SOG are 24-11. Refs are less than ZERO! Jordan Watt #83 has called almost every penalty on Milwaukee. He STINKS!!!


Period 3 begins with Charlotte 5-on-3. "Referee, Referee, Referee, You Suck!" by about 200 fans. They score at the end of the second penalty. The Ads play Beat the Goalie as Rolston (6) scores from low in the right circle. The assists went to Gravel and Reedy. Gravel is all over the ice because he is angry at Charlotte and the refs! With 13:40 remaining the SOG are 33-13 Checkers. Livingstone just rocked #10 in the NE corner. He came out without a helmet. Giles called for Holding at 9:32. Charlotte gets called for Slashing at 11:11. He hit Reedy on the hands. Kemell was tripped by #3, no call. Both penalties expired with no SOG. Now 6:41 remaining. Now 5:15. Down to 3:48 and nobody is getting SOGs. Ads miss empty net at 1:53. But hit it at 1:47! Gravel with an assist to Cal. Lucchini scored a low angle ENG in the last minute to make it 4-1.

Appleby's is CLOSED!!! Murray had 42 saves and was the #1 Star of the Game.

The Ads won their third game in a row and have won 2 of 3 from Charlotte. The 15 SOG have to be lowest of the season.

The Admirals play Charlotte at 6 PM.
My prediction is 3 fights. I expect Marino, Angello and Ottenbreit to fight. They all have reasons to fight after what happened last game.

Milwaukee (20-14-2-3) hosts Charlotte (21-12-3-2), both in third place in their divisions.

John Leonard played for the Checkers last night. He played for the Ads and Preds in 2022-23.

The ice looks very rutted in front of me! The teams are about to come out on the ice. Chris

Chris Driedger is in net for Charlotte. Last season he played for Coachella Valley.

LD Del Gaizo with Livingstone. LW is Bjork with Cal at C and Ozzy. Chrona is in goal for the Admirals. Big crowd tonight!

Hometown boy Anders Bjork (2) scores at 26 seconds with assists to Cal and Ozzy. It was stick side. Cal continues his point scoring streak, 5 games, I believe. It is Teddy Bear Night. I would estimate 1000 on the ice. Some of the players are milling around to keep their legs warm. Nychuk and Livingstone were helping in front of me. The game restarts at 6:15.

The second line is Lucchini with Kemell and De Leo. Gravel and Ufko on defense.
Interference and Cross Checking on #25 versus Lucchini. It was not called!!

Charlotte has been in the crease twice in the first 3 minutes. Goal waived off due to Goaltender Interference. Angello gets a minor for Tripping at the same time. The Ads killed it. They killed all 7 penalties last night against the deadly Checkers PP. With 14:04 remaining, the SOG are 7-1 Charlotte, with the score 1-0 Admirals!

With 12:29 remaining, #2 tripped Ozzy on a breakout. It was called. Cross Checking on #29 against Ottenbreit. Shaun Davis calls another penalty for the dirty play by Charlotte! Ads with0SOG on the PP. After that, both Marino and Ozzy put big hits on Carrick. Livingstone 2 minutes for a big hit right after the whistle. It was called Roughing at 15:28.

Prokop (1) scores with assists to De Leo (1) and Angello (6) at 18:28. The Checkers went for a big hit and it cost them a goal! The horn sounds and Ozzy gets crossed checked twice by #25 Wilmer Skoog, who was a big mouth punk a few times last night! SOG 18-4 Charlotte. Driedger has a 50% Save Avg.

I talked to 4 STH, they ALL think that Charlotte is the dirtiest team that we have seen in Milwakee this season!


Skoog Cross Checking Lucchini on 2 separate occasions after the whistle. Minor and a Misconduct for that bum! That Ads have 2 SOG, but only 1 was put up on the board. The Scorer goofed! At 7:05, Charlotte scores on a shot down the goal line to make it 2-1 Admirals. Ozzy and a guy had sticks up for 10 seconds from the NW corner to the far side of the Checker net. No Calls. Lucchini called for Slashing at 10:47. Compared to some, that wasn't much. The Ads killed it. SOG 23-7, really 8, Checkers with 6:07 remaining. Charlotte scores a fluky PPG from the SE corner and off the inside of Chrona's leg behind the pad and into the goal. Minor to #19 for Tripping at the far Blue line. That was John Leonard.

After 0 SOG, with 11 seconds left, Ozzy (10) weaved his way through 2 Checkers and scored, with assists to Lucchini and Ufko. Pavel called for Delay when he sent the puck over the glass from the Neutral Zone. That is NOT a penalty!!! SOG 26-8, really 9, Checkers. The score is 3-2 Admirals. Driedger Save % is up to 62.5. Big Whoop!


There are 58 seconds of carryover on the penalty. The Checkers chip one in with 7 seconds left in the penalty. None of their goals have been blistering Slap shots.Teddy Bear count was over 3000!

With 17:54 remaining, #14 gets called for Elbowing. Ads with 1 SOG on the PP. They need to sit De Leo and Reedy on PP1 and PP2. They should be using Bjork and Ozzy! This is where the 11-7 hurts the team. SOG are 31-11 with 10:51 to go. SOG are 33-12 with 5:19 remaining. The puck has been in the Ads end a lot! Ads get a rare O-zone face-off and win it ans a SOG. Ozzy get hit into the boards after the whistle! Pavel punched the guy in the head. No penalties called. Just 1:57 left. SOG 8-7 Checkers and 34-15 overall.

We go to OT, like on Wednesday! Bjork, Cal and Ufko just missed a goal. Then Charlotte just missed a goal. Neither team connected on that last pass.

The Ads lose at 3:32 after bad passing in front of 8192 fans. Ozzy was the #2 Star of the Game with 1G and 1A. It was a highlight reel goal.

Karl Taylor said "We were outplayed". My wife agrees with him!

Ref Ratings:
Shaun Davis, #31, gets a 9. (Tell everybody that you know!!!)
Jordan Deckard, #14 gets a 2. (I thought he was trying to make the Ads lose. My daughter believes that he was paid off!)

Linespersons:
T J Lyle, #88, gets a 2. (He blew 2 Offside calls, 3 if your a Checkers fan. He was the third Dman for Charlotte tonight. He broke up 4 or 5 Admirals rushes!)
Craig Ford, #70, had puck drop issues, a lot of them. He gets a 3.

Three out of four on ice officials got a bad rating. Shaun Davis got the good one. The hockey world is upside down!
