Rochester Americans and Jacksonville Icemen 2024 Season Thread.

[Chainshot]

No word on Neuchev. The Amerks social seems like it might not be their regular person tonight.

Clague's goal -



And Jobst scores! 2-1 Amerks with under a minute left in the 2nd.

 

[Chainshot]

Missed Utica tying it while watching the fireworks in the Bandits game. 2-2 early in the third.

 

[Chainshot]

Jobst's goal to end the second -



Utica scored 26 seconds into the third though.

 

[Chainshot]

Rosen and Murray have both been in alone on Poulter and failed to finish. Still 2-2.

 

[Chainshot]

Ryan Johnson just walked in and put one off the post. Still hasn't scored a professional goal but man, that was close.

 

[Chainshot]

Jobst in OT!

Murray's point streak ends, but they get the win on the road in OT. Still no word on Neuchev, hope it isn't serious.



Also, the win and Laval's loss puts them again momentarily in 1st in their division.

 

[Chainshot]

Jax about to win in Greenville, continuing to push up in their division. I see Matt Savoie's brother Carter is back from the Liiga and playing in Greenville with ex Gopher captain Bryce Brodzinski.

And they get the road shutout, 3-0.

Is that 10 wins now for Levi in 13 games ?

Yes, though last night was Sandstrom in net backed up by Houser.

I was wondering how the hell Laval has that many PIMs, but looking at their roster I see why.

They roll some beef in their 4th line for sure.

It’s like those random seasons in the EA games. League leader only get like 1200 PIMs on the season total, and then randomly there’s a a season where it’s like 2300.

John Gruden of the Marlies gets the AHL All-Star coaching gig due to the Marlies having the best winning percentage in the North Division as of midnight last night.

Coaches named for 2025 AHL All-Star Classic

Leone's Amerks are second in the North in winning percentage which for a rookie pro coach is pretty good. He's been so much more organized and structured than Appert's teams were IMO.

Not sure about this trade. I liked Poolman in preseason.

Maybe it's a domino.....needed space on the defense to make room for Gilbert???? Because we're bringing in an NHL defenseman???? (please? pretty please?)

 

[Jacob582]

Poolman wasn't playing. I'm sure he wanted out.

No logic allowed.

It's the first domino to fall in us getting EP40, dammit. LET ME DREAM.

We saved $100k with this move. That can go toward the $14+ million in cash that EP40 is due in the next year or so. Economic!

Seems like throwing Poolman a bone for not having the roster space to get him regular playing time and also it might prep them for a 2-for-1 forward trade that will impact their depth a bit. It's not like they aren't scratching a bunch of skaters every night and this just adds two more forwards.

hmmm.. how about bringing the other Joshua in the system. Shake it up.

 

[Chainshot]

I'd also missed this -



Since I'm going to the game on Wednesday, I may get to see Housecat in action.

 

[Chainshot]

The Amerks depth guys keep coming through - Fiddler-Schultz with his sixth, Warren with his seventh, Amerks up 2-0
