There are 2 mins left in this period Utica hasn’t had a shot. So this game has completely changed.

Hajek hasn’t played in a while he’s taken some big hits as usual not sure if injury or what. We do have 7 Dmen dresses but geertson has been skating as a wing
 
When you see Kravtsov, you immediately can tell he was a high pick with top-shelf skill.

Right now it's about figuring out how and when to deploy his weapons, maturing as player, and gaining experience. But if you really watch him closely, which is a lot easier live, you see that his raw ability is better than most, if not all the guys on the ice with him at the AHL level.

Franchise Record for Utica 0 shots and they just at the end gift them a phantom shot. They took one at the end that deflected wide.
 
Fogarty sets up Oregan from behind the net out to the slot for a one timer 5-4 with 17 mins to go. This game is chiefs Texans the other day. No in between all Utica to start dumb self inflicted wounds by the Pack and now complete dominance by Hartford up to this point since the first shift of the second period.
 
Now Utica coming on this kid Rafferty on D is very impressive. I gotta tell u I’m never all that impressed by Keane. I realize what he’s doing at this level is in fact impressive but game to game just doesn’t do much for me. I don’t think he’s taking anyone’s job anytime soon but he’s a solid depth piece.

Lettieri is awful makes so many bad plays in a game I don’t care when he scores he’s unreal in his decision making lol.
 
With a minute left Kravtsov makes a game saving deflection off a turnover down low breaks up the saucer pass across. Came all the way back with his man didn’t fly the zone early. Good play.

and sure enough extra attacker lettieri comes off the bench gets the puck right in his wheelhouse one timer in the slot steps into it beats Dipietro five hole ties the game

crazy one

Nice pull and drag move by Kravtsov in OT another save. Again coming down the left side. He’s clearly comfortable on either side At even strength.

Hajek also now wirh a great chance goes to the net tries to tuck it around dipietro but stopped. Actually two great chances to the net by hajek there. His skating is really strong and you see the upside with him no question.
 
Gropp again absolutely flying here drops to Oregan who puts it off Dipietro and out. Minute to go

Lettieri with HAJek 2 on 1 shoots wide and Utica comes back kind of get a lucky bounce puck gets behind McCollum on a nothing short and it’s tapped in. Dumb one on McCollum to lose the game. He was solid in the third and OT up to that point.
 
Rafferty was atvrangers development camp a few years ago. Disappointed that the rangers didn’t sign him coming out of college.

I know nothing about him they said he was a rookie but he’s actually 24 years old. So not as impressed as I was.

I often disagree with your assessments, but I do agree with you on Keane. Like I said the other day--he's fine. But that's all he is for me.

Lettieri is the forward version of John Gilmour. The production is great and you of course appreciate it, but the stupid shit is just overwhelming.

I kinda doubt Keane will be really in the discussion in the future but you never know. Seems like a guy who will always be on the cusp but not quite good enough to hold down the top 4 spot you think he'll need to

Totally, man! ;)

I actually say it for a reason, though, and it's to illustrate that two people who often see things very differently see this the same. Like if @Brooklyn Rangers Fan says something about a prospect and I echo it, it's like, yeah, okay, those guys agree on most things, so who cares? So, I think it's good to note that we often disagree, but agree here. That's all.

:cheers:

Saw this a few weeks ago when he was here in CLT. he 'looked' like an NHL player, even in just his body language, moreso than the rest of the on-ice players. Didn't turn in much in terms of results, but that will come.
 
Hartford goes up 1-0 on a Nick Jones goal. Hajek assist.

All started on a good forecheck by Kravtsov at the end of his shift. Got a puck that was flipped out and beat his defender in the corner, retained possession and got things going.

Now, Hartford going on a 4 min PP.

Lettieri cashes in on a one time from the circle on the PP. Assists to Oregan on LoVerde.

2-0 half way through the 1st

Utica gets one late to make it 2-1.

Not the greatest goal for McCollum to give up.
 
This team was spoiled with Shesterkin. Huska and McCollum can't be the no. 1 for that team...

Also, wtf Kravtsov on Utica's 4th goal? Did everything he could to hand them the goal... counted 3 grave errors in a row. C'mon Vitali!
