Prospect Info: Syracuse Crunch, Orlando Solar Bears & Prospects

[Point21]

I really hope they find a way to bring him back to NA

 

[Point21]

Did Groshev fall off the face of the earth or something?

I wish the AHL showed TOI stats. apparently they have all that info but dont have it as public record for anyone to see. Just looking at the lineup card shows him on the "1st" line but i highly doubt Goncalves-Finley-ABB is the 4th line for the Crunch.

From European perspective I don´t always understand this idea, where 1st line is supposed to be the best and the 4th the less good. What is the point in creating such a hierarchy for the team? Does it benefit someone? Seems a bit old fashioned way of thinking.
What matters the most is how well the players play together and what is the best line combination and role for each player.

skill isn't necessarily linear. there is practical application, as in, one line is more of a "scoring line" and will have players adept at putting pucks in the net or generating offensive opportunity. other lines may be more of a defensive priority and can be deployed to offset the opposing teams scoring lines based upon the players attributes on the line.

but you are correct in thinking that the cohesive unit of a line is more important than individual talent. and what line a player is on is not necessarily indicative of the talent level of the player.

I'm not sure Capone gets a contract, but his NCAA career can end with any loss.

UConn is below the cut line for the NCAA tournament, so the only way to extend their season is to win the Hockey East playoffs.

We will await his decision following the end of Boston College's season

Crunch lose 3-2 to Rochester

- Cole Koepke and Gabriel Fortier were named alternate captains before the game with Dumont out of the lineup and Jack Thompson traded. This is the first time Koepke has had a letter with the Crunch, but Fortier wore an 'A' a little bit under Groulx.
- Ilya Usau scores his 5th goal of the season, 1 more than he had last year
- Lucas Edmonds has his 5th point in the last 8 games
- Waltteri Merela has 6 points in his last 5 games
- Lilleberg scores his 2nd goal of the season





Niko Huuhtanen and Jukurit are finished with the regular season.

Huuhtanen's 2023-24 stats: 19 goals + 27 assists = 46 points in 52 games


They will play Karpat in the playoffs

Not sure why they're trading Carroll. And lmao, getting Schmiemann back

Syracuse keeps giving PTOs to ECHL defensemen. If they want to win the cup this year, they'll need some defensive depth.

Evan Fitzpatrick, Goaltender, Orlando Solar Bears

Despite a solid 29-22-8 record, I have my doubts the Solar Bears are going to be able to ascend from fifth place in the South Division and make the playoffs, but Fitzpatrick, 26, is doing all he can to make sure they do.

In his last six outings, he’s 3-3-0 with a .929 save percentage and a 34-save shutout of the Atlanta Gladiators.

He’s 6-foot-3 but probably plays bigger than that. He doesn’t waste much movement and uses his frame to his advantage for a team that allows more than 32 shots per game.

If OSB had given more consistent performances throughout the season, the playoffs probably wouldn't be a question.

We're sitting outside the playoffs again, but the floor is still higher than it's been the last few years. This group could at least reasonably be a playoff team.

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

Crunch win 4-2

- Koepke (1st star) - 1 goal (#16), 1 assist
- Edmonds (2nd star) 1 goal, 1 assist. 7 points in his last 9. Starting to turn it around at the right time
- Carlile with an empty net goal and 1 assist

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

Goal #11 for Webster



Veinbergs with a goal

 

[Felonious Python]

OSB went into the second intermission last night down 5-1. They won in OT.

Nice comeback, but they aren't starting on time. There's an issue with their preparation.


Masicotte and Fitzpatrick are also listed as recalled to Syracuse. Orlando doesn't have any goalies and plays on Monday.
