The Fourth 2019-20 Utica Comets Thread

[Bad Goalie]

The first PP unit is good. maintain puck control ,but Baertschi and Anas are both pass first.

Second unit needs to be changed. They haven't generated anything. Rookies Focht and McGing are struggling to get into the zone

 

[Bad Goalie]

Reinke delivers a pizza into the slot in the final seconds and Gillies rescues the Comets.

2nd period ends.

Utica 2 - Rochester 1

SOG
Utica: 15
Rochester: 12
2 period total: 24-18 Rochester

Utica has faded in the final minutes of both periods.

 

[Bad Goalie]

Penalties in the period 4-0 Rochester.

Refs normally get things back to even before it's over so the Comets need to be on their toes and avoid unnecessary stuff.

 

[Bad Goalie]

3rd is under way.

 

[Bad Goalie]

Comets have been quite good on the draws.

 

[Bad Goalie]

Lockwood, McGing, and Arseneau get something going, but no dice.

 

[Bad Goalie]

Baertschi really good in board puck battles. He has also been deep in his own end playing strong defensively.

 

[Bad Goalie]

Comets back to the PP. Not much going.

Briliant passing play from Reinke across to Anas and all the way back across to Lind for the one timer.

3-1 Comets.

Lind (2) from Anas (2) and Reinke (1)

 

[Bad Goalie]

2 great stops by Gillies as the Comets relax on the ensuing faceoff.

Comets to go back on the kill. Imagine that.

 

[Bad Goalie]

11;35 to go and now have to kill a penalty right after gaining the 3-1 lead and just like the old days, the Amerks immediately score. Back to a one-goal game.

3-2 Comets

 

[Bad Goalie]

Is it delay of game or not? Yes, it is.

Comets back to the PP.

 

[Bad Goalie]

Right after the faceoff puck to the corner and Walker gets 2 for slashing a stick in half.

2 minutes for ax-chopping.

 

[Bad Goalie]

4 on 4 for basically 2 minutes. If this is like always, Cull hasn't practiced 4 on 4.

 

[Bad Goalie]

Joshua in clean and stopped and missed on the rebound.

 

[Bad Goalie]

back to 5 on 5

 

[Bad Goalie]

Gadjovich a nice little rush but his speed just not enough and McKenzie can't do anything with the pass.

 

[Bad Goalie]

7:29 left in regulation.

TV TO

 

[Bad Goalie]

Lockwood a good rush and he's stopped.

 

[Bad Goalie]

2 on 1 Amerks and shot is wide.

 

[Bad Goalie]

Time running down and Rochester is pressing as the clock ticks down to 4:21.

Last TV TO

 

[Bad Goalie]

Lind line on.
Offsides.

 

[Bad Goalie]

Santini went for the big hit and it's a trip. Kind of knee on knee.

Rochester PP.

 

[Bad Goalie]

Last PK was not good.

Rochester dumps, utixc sends it out.

Amerks back in. Shot missed the net.

Utica fires it down.

Shot blocked. Cleared out.

Rochester hit the point. PP killed.

 

[Bad Goalie]

Empty net. Tucker shoots length of the ice way wide. Dumb play rookie. Just flip it out high and make them bring it back in.

 

[Bad Goalie]

Rochester time out.

Offsides
