Prospect Info: Hartford Wolf Pack/Bloomington Bison Thread: Part XV

[kovazub94]

But here's the problem with that play. It starts because Rempe takes an undisciplined boarding penalty, the type of penalty he needs to stop taking if he wants the coaches to trust him and be in more than 5 minutes a game.

Yeah, I wasn't opining on this.

31 save shutout for Garand in 3-0 Pack win.

That's his 2nd shutout in a row, and only 1 goal given up in his last 3 games (87 shots against).

 

[GAGLine]

Hartford struggled big time on the PP after Othmann got hurt, and losing Berard to the Rangers didn't help.

But lately, they've picked it up, scoring 6 goals in their last 4 games (17 opportunities). The forward group that has scored all 6 of those goals is:

Belzile
Groulx
Chmelar
Leschshyshyn

The defenseman has rotated, with Mancini getting 3 in one game, Ruhwedel 1 in another game, and Robertson getting 2 yesterday.

Ironically, Chmelar hasn't gotten a point on any of the 6 goals. I assume he's parked in front of the net screening the goalie, which is valuable even if he doesn't get points.

He is. He plays net front on PP1 and is generally ok there.

Much better video quality and I’m glad they got rid of the music.

Hartford 1-0 over Laval after 1. Garand in net.
Sykora from Harpur and Leschyshyn.
Another start for Garand. Getting him ready for next season in the NHL hopefully (?)

Chmelar fought today for the first time for anyone interested

[Raspewtin]

How did he do?

threw some hard punches but i'd say he lost, clearly not something he's done before:

this also has the huge open ice hit he laid that started it

[Raspewtin]

Roob is on the second PK unit now. I think he's bumped Rempe down to the third F unit.

Lesch scores on the PP, good net front play by Chmelar

 

[Raspewtin]

Florian Xhekaj had Chmelar lined up for a big hit in the netural zone but he bounced right off it and reversed him, nice strength

 

[Clark Kellogg]

Pack playing very well. Good flow.

 

[Raspewtin]

Garand's shutout streak is over, 3-1

 

[EdJovanovski]

Some nice chances for Rempe, curled off the boards with a good shot on goal

 

[Clark Kellogg]

This game took a wrong turn. Laval has all the momentum.
3-2 pack with 6:44 left in the 3rd.

 

[Clark Kellogg]

For those watching, Hartford has their own version of Dancing Larry.

 

[Clark Kellogg]

Garand looked great. Ben Harpur with the en.
4-2 Wolf Pack win.
Last 8 minutes should be a teaching moment for Hartford. Can’t expect their opponents to stop playing just because you’ve controlled large amounts of the first two periods.

When Chmelar said his own name in an interview, he said it like "Huh-mel-ash." I don't know where this "Ham-el-osh" is coming from unless it was established that's how English-speaking announcers should be pronouncing it. Like Alex Thomas is inserting a very pronounced English vowel sound between the CH and the M that I don't hear when Czech speakers say it.

Did Chmelar fight Pagnotta? If yes, that’s a guy who went with Reaves a couple of years ago. He knows what he’s doing
