Rochester Americans and Jacksonville Icemen 2023-24 Season Thread

[Zman5778]

Oh lord, Merschie.

No trail of blood......maybe that's a positive?

 

[sabresfan129103]

This feels like that episode of South Park where all the kids were intentionally trying to lose baseball games, but Levi somehow isn't in on it.

 

[thewookie1]

I hope he's ok; only good sign is the lack of blood on the ice

 

[sabres4ever]

Bench him.

 

[Chainshot]

What the hell...

 

[Gabrielor]

fire Weissbach into the sun for this game.

 

[Zman5778]

Jesus Weissbach. At least try to hide it SOME. Don't do a full wind up when going in for the trip.

 

[Sabre the Win]

Where did we rank Weissbach in the prospect rankings?

He might be NR next poll

 

[KeyserSoze81]

man, I almost want them to lose. They don’t deserve to be in OT, let alone win this game. This is awful.

 

[thewookie1]

Win it for Levi and Mersch now

 

[Gabrielor]

He's not even a prospect. Aged out. He's just an AHLer, and a shitty one in this game.

 

[DapperCam]

Bold strategy to let the other team get so many shots on goal that their arms become exhausted and ineffective.

 

[Ace]

They either waste Levi’s incredible night…or he gets his jersey retired after the game. No middle ground

 

[Sabre the Win]

Right, expendable and on a one way ticket to the sun.

Unemployed.

 

[truthbluth]

A lot to not like, but, I liked Cecconi. He and Metsa were the only two players playing anything resembling defense.

 

[Chainshot]

Apparently the strat is to make the Crunch tired by letting them take a billion shots. 21 in the first... 19 in the first OT. FFS.

Ahem.

SIGN. METSA. NOW.

I thought Prow was spent after last season's playoffs. I know he's one of their lettermen, but he's so cooked.

 

[Gabrielor]

Like I said, they need an odd man rush breakdown to win. They had 2 in OT.

Rosen shouldn't have passed that 2 on 0. Jobst was in too tight.
Kozak just couldn't beat the goalie.

 

[Ace]

Kevin Oklobzija on Levi while on WGR today -

“He’s been good…but he hasn’t done anything spectacular yet”

Levi -

Maybe taking their cue from Rumble in the Jungle.

Rope a dope you say?

 

[Chainshot]

As someone who doesn't want Appert as an assistant in Buffalo... this is why.

 

[Sabre the Win]

As someone who doesn't want Appert as an assistant in Buffalo... this is why.

4 periods and he hasnt changed his strategy once. Rochester looks scrambly in their own zone, they can't get any passes thru in the offensive zone, no one is going to the net. It's probably the worst hockey I've seen since the Sabres.
