Rochester and Cincinnati All-Purpose Thread 2022-2023 Season (Conference Finals: Hershey wins 4-2)

[Gabrielor]

I had to look to see Mersch has 22 points in 27 games.

Feel like I haven't seen him do anything in 10+ games.

 

[Ace]

If I hadn’t seen Subban make an even crazier behind the back save last year I would have easily believe that was the best save of his career

 

[Chainshot]

And in usual Amerk fashion... they are now behind.

 

[Chainshot]

Bjork scores on the rush shortly after an atrocious giveaway in his own zone. I was just about to bag on him...

 

[Gabrielor]

2 goals? in the 2nd? in this economy?

2 assists for Kulich

 

[Chainshot]

Kulich to Jobst so fast it beat the camera and Don Stevens.

Bjork's goal from Rousek -



Jobst on the rush from Kulich -

 

[Gabrielor]

Happy with the lead, but...

We're in this 4 game stretch in 16 or less shots through 2 period.

Puck possession and SOG are like pulling teeth for them.

 

[Chainshot]

Cederqvist gets called for tripping - high level of difficulty on that dive by Charlotte.

The Pilut steps up to flatten his check again. Someone tell Lawrence to start working on that or what? He's had a couple of excellent ones.

 

[Chainshot]

Sabre legend Zac Dalpe ties it for Charlotte.

 

[Chainshot]

This team...

4-3 Charlotte. Don says bad bounce. My thought was more terrible defensive zone play.

 

[Chainshot]

Jobst can't handle the bouncing rebound off a Kulich shot and puts it wide. Damn.

 

[Chainshot]

Subban has been really good.

 

[Gabrielor]

This team gives up so many 2v1s

Similarly, I'm amazed by how they can completely botch d-zone play and turn something simple into a high danger chance against. And it would be interesting to see how many cross slot passes they allow compared to other AHL teams because it's a f***ing ton from casual viewing.

 

[Chainshot]

ENG against as it goes in off the post. That was the Checkers' 40th shot. Subban's been their best player.

I'm beginning to wonder if they will need help from others in their division to make the playoffs.

 

[Gabrielor]

Team needs a bag skate after that one

 

[Chainshot]

1-4-1 in the last six.

 

[Beerz]

 

[Chainshot]

Down to 4th in the division and sinking. At least they have games in hand on 5th place Laval.

Bummer. Seems like this might be it for Matej in the Sabres organization, being his second trip down to Cincinnati.

He seems like a great guy based on the stuff I saw this past summer around Sabres development camp or the Prospect Challenge. I can't remember which one. When drafted, he looked like a guy who might have a future in an agitator/energy role, and his days in juniors certainly bore that out. But once he hit the AHL and injured his shoulders, it was a different story.

I feel badly for him and wish him well wherever he might end up.

I think its a injury rehab stint?? I dunno.. I had high hopes for him too

He needs to play. Even though it seems like he's been around forever, he's only got 88 pro games to his name and while he may not amount to much, to get more out of him, he has to see game situations. Being in the pressbox in Rochester won't help there.
