- Joel Armia called up to Montreal

- Filip Mesar sent to Kitchener
​

First road game of the season. It's also a back-to-back, so expect more changes to the line-up. The guys who were healthy scratches last night will likely be in tonight.

Roy named the 1st star in the AHL last night.

 

[WeThreeKings]

Hope Houle keeps Farrell-Roy together. Smart players do special things when they are paired with other smart players.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Marcotte saying how quickly things change in the AHL. Laval had 17 forwards, they lost Heineman and Bourque to injury. Armia is called up and Mesar to Kitchener. And now Laval has 13 forwards.


- Roy
- Farrell
- Simoneau
- Kidney
- Mysak
- Davidson
- Légaré
- Andersson
- Maillet
- Stephens
- Gignac
- Condotta
- McKay

Who could have predicted that?

 

[Tyson]

Now the AHL grind starts...

 

[Adam Michaels]

Who could have predicted that?

More playing time for guys like Kidney, Davidson & Mysak, who have been rotating in and out the first 4 games. Roy, Farrell, and Simoneau are mainstays.

Wonder who sits today, probably Kidney because McKay had 2 pts yesterday. I want more of Davidson for now.

Unfortunately no Davidson for at least a few weeks:

Incredible.. who whould've thought..

 

[Adam Michaels]

So Laval will have 12F available for tonight: Roy, Farrell, Kidney, Mysak, Simoneau, Maillet, Andersson, Gignac, Condotta, Légaré, Stephens & McKay,

 

[SlyIslands]

So with Davidson injured I would guess

Maillet-Stephens-Andersson
Roy-Condotta-Farrell
Simoneau-Gignac-Kidney
McKay-Mysak-Légaré

 

[Fatbiggie]

Unfortunately no Davidson for at least a few weeks:

Noooooooooooooo

 

[Adam Michaels]

So with Davidson injured I would guess

Maillet-Stephens-Andersson
Roy-Condotta-Farrell
Simoneau-Gignac-Kidney
McKay-Mysak-Légaré

Not bad lines.

Wanted prospects to get TOI, well here u go…

 

[Adam Michaels]

For anyone who wants to listen to the game on the radio, Marcotte confirms that it will be only available on their website. Since BPM Sports also has the French radio broadcast rights to CF Montreal, and tonight is their final game of the season, that game takes priority. So the Laval game will only be available on BPM Sports website.

Also, since he didn't travel to Belleville with the team, the AHL TV feed will only have the Belleville local broadcaster.

@obcd1 Almost got them right.

It's Legare who will be on the right of Simoneau and Gignac. And Kidney will center the 4th line, flanked by Mysak and McKay.




No surprise, Mann gets the start.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Great timing for me to have problems with AHL TV. Can't watch the game. Will continue to try. Belleville is up 1-0. Until then, I'm relying on the scoresheet.

 

[Nevins]

Belleville scores 1-0

 

[Adam Michaels]

Baby Sens go up 2-0

 

[ChesterNimitz]

Just stepped around Mailloux to make it 2-0. Very similar to the overtime goal against. We’re being outskated badly in this period. Good transition play led to a late goal by Gignac. 2-1 after one period.

Unfortunately no Davidson for at least a few weeks:

It's getting tiresome commenting on the injuries of this organization. I just have never seen this in my life.

Baby Sens go up 2-0

Why do they always suck against Belleville? They've been terrible for years.

 

[Adam Michaels]

GOAL! Gignac gets Laval on the board with 32 seconds left in the period. Simoneau and Keeper with the helpers.

 

[ChesterNimitz]

It's getting tiresome commenting on the injuries of this organization. I just have never seen this in my life.


Why do they always suck against Belleville? They've been terrible for years.

This team is short of talent.

 

[ChesterNimitz]

Surprisingly, Riley Kidney continues to impress in his limited playing time. If this kid can gain some strength, and that all illusive extra step, he’s going to play in the NHL. Every time I watch this team I find my self asking: who’s that number 21?
