We outshot them 32-31 in game 1. And Missy's shots were all from out wide yesterday. They were far more dangerous in game 2 and UPL really had to stand on his head.

UPL and the Wolves sweep Steelheads, 4-1 the final score in game 4.

UPL faced 32 shots, 1 goal against, Steelheads out shot the Wolves 32-31
- so from 3/4 games Steelheads out shot the Wolves, thou only the game 2 was with a large margin; 28-41.

 

[Artorius Horus T]

Wow.... i guess UPL is a human after all. Ottawa beats Sudbury 8-5 in game 1, UPL got pulled in 2nd period.
Wolves was out shot 41-28.

Next game is a huge opportunity for UPL. - he has always re-found himself after a bad game and bounced back

Great piece on UPL....

Great piece on UPL....

"I'm telling you right now, he's the best thing that's going to happen to the Buffalo Sabres since chicken wings"

I lol'd.

Great video too.

 

[Artorius Horus T]

Another 5 goal against for UPL..... well, this is not going how i expect it would go.

 

[JThorne]

When he makes the Sabres, can we start calling him Youppi? UP Luukkonen. Get it? No? I'll show myself out...

Ottawa's also a juggernaut. Sudbury had an unreal season but a lot of it was on UPL's back.

Quinton Byfield too.

 

[tsujimoto74]

Quinton Byfield too.

He's gonna be a good one. I haven't watched a lot of junior games this year, but Byfield looks like a stud. For a guy that big to be able to skate the way he does is insane.

 

[HasbeenHallzy]

Quinton Byfield too.

And pheonominal coaching

No need to rush Luukkonen in anyway. He is project goalie. He has 20 or so games in adults. I think he joined Rochester anyway.

 

[Thebesthockey]

Buffalos future right here....

 

[Chainshot]

They want him to be around the Amerks as they prep for and play in the playoffs. It would be shocking to see him in games even if Wedgewood is not my favorite and Wilcox has had some struggles. But he'll be seeing some pro practice time and find out how to prepare at the next level.

Signed an ATO to join the Amerks for their playoff run. I'd be shocked if he plays in any games, but practicing with the team and being around while they (hopefully) make a solid run at the Calder Cup should be good for him.
