Laval Rocket: Game #13 vs. Belleville Senators (Laval Wins 6-4 After Being Down 4-0)

[The Real Timo]

Is Laval in da playoffs?

Probably just vets on the ice at all the key moments.

Roy played a regular shift in the 3rd.

The AHL site updates immediately, so that includes the game tonight (even during gameplay). Check the box score for tonight’s game, he scored his 4th goal of the season, not his 5th

Well, that's stupid. Oh well, he's close to ppg anyway. He'll get there next game.

 

[Nevins]

Very nice comeback and 3 victories in a row (in addition to beating their black beast Belleville). But the Rocket's defense needs to improve because they are last in the AHL at this level.

He was on at some point with an empty net.

 

[Adam Michaels]

What a comeback!!!

Laval has won 4 of their last 5 games, scoring 22 goals and conceding 16 against.

Awesome win. This team has talent, just need to stop bleeding goals

Agreed! Unfortunately with all young prospects, the bleeding may continue, but not as often.

 

[Tyson]

A case for Mann and Farrell to be named 2 of the 3 stars can be made.

They still haven’t given Roy his 2nd assist, I’m not happy

True that. Rooting for individual achievements and steady improvement.

Neither named a star.

Bisson was 3rd star
Stephens was 2nd star
Gignac was 1st star

The CHL (OHL, etc) do that too. I personally like it lol, less math on my end

Too bad the AHL doesn't track time on ice. Hard to see exactly what kind of hierarchy exists.

 

[Fatbiggie]

Neither named a star.

Bisson was 3rd star
Stephens was 2nd star
Gignac was 1st star

Farrell not being there is wrong imo

 

[WeThreeKings]

Farrell haters?!

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

I guess the way to win games despite giving up way too many goals was to just start scoring even MORE goals. We should have thought of that way earlier

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Neither named a star.

Bisson was 3rd star
Stephens was 2nd star
Gignac was 1st star

Farrell should have gotten a star over Bisson or Stephens.

Excellent thread title edit. Thank you

Farrell haters?!

While I don't hate him by any means
I just feel like the newhook trade kind of sealed his fate?
Do you truly see him as a 3rd liner in the future of this team?
Would they ever chance putting him in our top 6 in the future? I wonder

They're both 22 too

They're still assets though, and you want to develop the players so they become the best players possible.

They do track TOI. The only issue is they don't make that available to everyone. That kind of information is only given to the teams,

He's doing really well
Just trying to look into the future like we always do lol

You hope at some point that they can start to consistently put in a full effort defensively, if they can tighten things up they can be a playoff team as they do have some solid offensive skills down there but can be a tire fire at times and you hope at some point as the season progresses, they iron that out as it's one of the youngest teams in the AHL so it's to be expected and they have shown some progress for sure but still a good bit for work to be done.
