I imagine it's because they view Domingue as their #3 and they want to keep him fresh if needed.Stop splitting the goalies just ride Garand. Garand has played back to back games the last 3 years almost every weekend, he can handle it.
Update. Pack lose again 5-3. Really they scored 2 of the 3 late in the 3rd. Just not a ton of chemistry and it's leading to not great offense. I think there are enough players who have offensive potential, but right now there's no one that other teams are afraid of. That's likely an issue. We don't really have that one prospect like Chytil that everyone gameplans against and then the rest of the team can fall in behind that player and play a role more suitable to them. But sorta like the big club, there's just not a ton of offensive confidence out there. Need to do a better job getting chances in dangerous areas. Similar to big club, but with far less talent. Even when they outplay their opponent for stretches, the other team doesn't seem terribly fazed.2-1 Bridgeport after 2. Pack have outplayed the Islanders for a decent majority of the game, but Bridgeport has had a few spirts that have been the difference.
A few quick thoughts.
1. Trivigno is consistently around the puck. And generally making effective plays. I want him to keep improving on his board work but in general you see a smaller player who can be effective with his footspeed, his IQ and decent hands. I legit think he can overcome his size at some point.
2. Rempe might have a choppy stride, but he was showing far more burst in his limited TOI than Gettinger tends to show. But he's pretty raw though.
3. Cuylle isn't quite as effective as I want him to be. He's not ineffective. He is generally more effective than not. But I want to see more from him.
4. Despite being down, again I like Garand's game for the most part. We just aren't playing in the O zone with any confidence.
5. Henriksson has been pretty effective. Someone else said it the other day, but he tends to be int he right place most of the time. He seems like a Goodrow type minus the size/fighting. At least so far.
Robertson is back. I don't mind Robertson and Emberson in this one.
My hope is that by January he's ready to step into Carpenter's role. I really like the guy.Knoblaugh interview highlights on Rydahl:
Strong, Powerful, Fast skater
Right now he is the 3rd line Centre behind Brodzinski(1) Fritz(2).
Sees Rydahl moving up in the lineup as he starts feeling more comfortable.
Smart player.
My observation: He along with Henriksson are the two forwards on the Wolf Pack #1 PK
Haha, force of habit?Last nights loss, clips:

You're absolutely correct about the information that Hartford puts out on the team. It's been terrible and has been terrible since I've paid attention. I was hoping bringing in Alex Thomas might change things but it hasn't.Skinner, Welinski scratched, injuries? How quickly the RHD depth can get challenged
Also Khodo, Korczak, Reuschh scratched.
We know PK left a game recently, and hadnt played since, i believe
I try not to be an entitled fan, but sure wish there was some source tracking roster status
Tidbits do come occasionally from sources like Howlings/Cantlon, Markiewicz or Milliner.
thanks, was gonna mention Welinski back in, for HillmanTonight against Wilkes Barre Penquins:
Five scratches are Reuschhoff, Khodorenko, Kozac, Hillman and Hunter Skinner. No reason given.
Domingue in goal. Welinski back in pared with Scanlin. Robertson with Emberson and Giutarri and Harpur.
