Rochester Americans and Jacksonville Icemen 2024 Season Thread.

[My Cozen Dylan]

It’s Affiliate Night here in Jacksonville. They’re calling themselves the IceBuffaloes and wearing a goathead inspired jersey.

Lots of Sabres jerseys in the crowd and already a bad disallowed goal early. Just like the big guys.

Murray initially too unselfish trying to get Ostlund the puck on an empty net rush. Buries it the next chance he gets, now 6-3. Bridgeport now with 11 loses in a row on home ice.

I'll be up on Wednesday, couldn't make it happen today. And yes, that Savoie on Greenville is Matt's older brother Carter.

LOL IceMen posted an Eichel gif when Greenville scored.

And in perfect Buffalo fashion, the Icemen blow two multi-goal leads to lose 5-4 in a shootout

Too bad Greenville comes back from down 2 and wins it in the SO.

Nadeau playing on the top line, picked up a 2ndary on the first goal. Grando has 2 and Jax is up 2-0.

Nadeau with a goal to go with the assist, Grando has a hat trick and picked up an assist on Nadeau goal. 4-1 Jax.

Leone was on Sabres Live this afternoon. Anyone with a recap?

Not sure about Sabres Live, but LGA585 gave a recap from his press conference:

Wahlberg playing tonight.

Helenius playing Saturday.

Possibly only 2/3 for each next weekend.

Leo said being smart and giving them time to adjust back based on sports sciene while comparing to Kulichs burnout and avoiding it.

Jagger Joshua also playing tonight!

Now for the not so good Amerks news - Viktor Neuchev is out week to week with an upper body injury. Leo said, "there'll be some time still before he comes back." Sometime after the All-Star break.

***********

Leone also said in his press conference that they told Helenius and Wahlberg to stay away from the rink until Thursday and that Kisakov earned another game.

Thanks. I haven’t circled back through YT to pick up any Amerks content from today. I will now speculate that needing to be helped from the ice was due to Neuchev being concussed.

Kisakov just keeps scoring when in the lineup. Not sure if it is a body mass thing or something else.
