Prospect Info: Hartford Wolf Pack (AHL)/Maine Mariners (ECHL) Thread: Part XI

[Joey Bones]

End of 1, 3-2 Pack....

So far a wild game offensively. Both teams are buzzing. That Hartford top line is creating a lot of offense, so is Chytil’s line. LoVerde is a very good AHL top defender, he is as advertised. Chytil is looking energized & creating plays everywhere on the ice. Think he’ll get called up with continued progress.

Thought Day looked solid with the puck on his stick. He’s also engaged in the corners which is very encouraging. With that said, his intensity needs to pick up a bit. At times looks uninterested. Thought Meskanen & Geertsen had som big plays physically, too.

Thought Lindgren had a bad period defensively, but took the game on his stick offensively. Keane has looks meh, despite the goal.

On to period 2!!

 

[Fitzy]

Well that's not the kind of thing you expect Lindgren to pull off, hahaha

 

[GeorgeKaplan]

Lettieri hits a post in tight. Fogarty showing some good hustle too

 

[GeorgeKaplan]

Chytil looking really good, taking pucks away all over the ice. Also carried the puck up to the offensive blue line and stopped and cut back so quick the guy following him just completely wiped out

 

[GeorgeKaplan]

LoVerde almost scores on the powerplay, shot hit something and trickled behind the goalie but he turned and grabbed it right before the line

 

[GeorgeKaplan]

Wahlstrom just walked through the two defensemen there because they just didn’t feel like stopping him I guess?

 

[GeorgeKaplan]

Chytil’s a force today, just drew a tripping penalty behind Bridgeport’s net

 

[GeorgeKaplan]

Nieves and someone else definitely just tried that second Zibanejad goal from last night and Nieves passed it into the defenders skates.

And Newell’s blowing and bumbling Chytil set ups left and right out here

Nice to see the arena completely empty. There is not 1,000 people in the stands. If I was betting money, 300-400?

 

[Joey Bones]

Sorry was away for a bit....

Geertsen with a big hit on Jobst. Caused a scrum/mediocre fight....

 

[Svenhart2008]

How is Huska looking? I'm only stat watching and that's not looking great.

So embarrassing.

 

[GeorgeKaplan]

How is Huska looking? I'm only stat watching and that's not looking great.

He’s played well, not getting the most action but he’s made some big saves. One of the goals was a penalty shot, so that might make his stats look worse

 

[Joey Bones]

How is Huska looking? I'm only stat watching and that's not looking great.

Definitely not bad. Making some good saves, along with ones he should stop. The penalty shot goal wasn’t on him, but Wahlstrom’s goal is one I think he’d like back.

 

[Joey Bones]

Bad hook by Beleskey, going on the PK

 

[Joey Bones]

Nick Jones needs an ELC. Kid is reliable in all zones.

 

[GeorgeKaplan]

here’s a gif of Chytil’s assist from the 1st without the actual goal, Keane just walked down to the goal line and threw it at the net and it went in

 

[GeorgeKaplan]

Co-signed

 

[Joey Bones]

Huska with a couple of nice saves....

 

[GeorgeKaplan]

Some good saves from Huska. I still think Day can make the NHL at some point, he’s thinking and making better reads defensively than he has in the past

 

[Svenhart2008]

The pack is about to go in to the third period with another lead, hold on to your butts....

It's like kryptonite for that team.....

 

[Luger]

All players say sometimes it's good for them during development years to watch from the stands as an assistant coach explains the game to them. Let's not panic about Kravtsov.

 

[Joey Bones]

End of 2, still 3-2 Pack....

Very meh period. Nothing terribly noticeable other than the fight. Thought everyone that was mentioned previously are still looking good. Lindgren had a better period than the 1st. Huska made a couple of nice saves. The Jones-Gettinger-Meskanen line showed some nice grit & pressure on the forecheck.

Onto period 3!!

 

[Joey Bones]

Top line peppering Gibson early!!

 

[GeorgeKaplan]

Fogarty with a good chance in tight. And Day’s best offensive skill (and has been since juniors) is how good he is at finding the lane to get his shot through traffic
