Yeah he has a bit of physicality to him, you don't recall hearing about this?

Haha, yeah that twitter exchange never gets old. I do remember that highlight, I just hadn't heard much about that part of his game, so I didn't know if that was just a one off type thing. Good to know though. Gonna be fun watching him develop for sure.

just passing this along, didn't see it or anything.

• Penn State potted the equalizer using great puck movement during a second period power-play as senior Erik Autio (Espoo, Finland) dished to sophomore Denis Smirnov (Moscow, Russia) at the left circle and Smirnov slipped a beautiful pass through the slot to freshman Cole Hults (Stoughton, Wis.) and the rookie fired into the empty side of the net for the 1-1 score at 9:52 of the middle frame.

• PSU responded as they took advantage of a pair of penalties by the Gee-Gees to score back-to-back power-play goals in a 1:35 span to pull even. Smirnov fired in the first goal during the 5-on-3 portion of the man-advantage as he skated into the left slot and fired far post picking the top right corner for the 3-2 score at 12:47 of the final period.

Our very own Cale Makar went +0 with no assists or goals in UMass's 1-0 opener this weekend! Figured it'd keep you guys updated.

I believe that was an exhibition. Their first game of the season seems to be the 6th.

What a bust!!!!!

edit: didn't see the separate thread

 

[AvsFan2123]

Anybody see Pronman's mention of Clurman?

Not a terrible amount there, but I want people to support The Athletic (it is worth it honestly) so I won't say too much.

We should draft Mittelstadt 1G+3A in exhibition

Welll... duh....

Speaking of Eden Prairie, Leivermann has apparently taken over the top pairing at Penticton

Looks like he's putting up some solid numbers. Hopefully Clurman can do similar in TC. I plan on going to watch him when he plays in IL.

No promises but looks like Makar's debut against AZ State can be streamed for free

http://pac-12.com/live/arizona-state-university

 

[StayAtHomeAv]

Hell yeah. I was curious if the pac12 would show ASU hockey games.

 

[StayAtHomeAv]

Check your guides for ND as well. I found tonight's game buried in Dish's alternative channels. Looks like it, and tomorrow's game will be streamed too.

http://www.und.com/sports/m-hockey/sched/nd-m-hockey-sched.html

Penn State streaming now (potentially tomorrow as well on a different link. Tonight's game can be replayed):

Awesome thanks! Game is at 10pm est tonight right? Looks like they play tomorrow as well.

 

[tigervixxxen]

Yeah.

Thanks for the extra links too SAH

 

[Foppa Frossa]

That ASU UMass game is pretty much unwatchable with the static camera angle.

 

[Avs_19]

Makar's assist......

 

[lowol]

Yeah, about the Avs breakout woes: looks like we'll be able to just hand the puck to Makar and he'll take care of it.

I am incredibly impressed by his full package. UMass was a different team when he was on the ice. While he has amazing skating abilities and great hands, I am mostly impressed by his ability to process the game a few steps ahead, resulting in consistently smart and surprising plays. He is also surprisingly physical out there, knowing how to use his body to make a play. He's guilty of trying to do too much out there, but it's not necessarily a bad thing at this development stage.

I see all the tools that you'd want in a franchise defenseman.

 

[StayAtHomeAv]

Penn State live stream for tonight (5 MT):
http://www.saintsathletics.com/spor...ints-mens-hockey-broadcasts.aspx?path=mhockey

It looks like this game is only free when watched live. The Notre Dame game (same link as yesterday) is also at 5 MT, but it can be replayed later. The UMass game (same link as yesterday), which starts at 7 or 8 MT (probably 8 like yesterday) appears to be only available live as well though. So the games are going to overlap.

 

[tigervixxxen]

Lewis continued scoring last night. He's going to be a treat to watch, skilled and feisty. The way the offense comes together on that team, he's going to be involved in a lot of the scoring.

 

[Freudian]

Would suck if Beaudin and Nantel get no ice time in the AHL.

 

[tigervixxxen]

The prospects get top TOI in the AHL narrative needs to get blowtorched. Would be nice to have Beaudin sitting just so that Colborne and Vogelhuber get in a game. We are also playing three Blues prospects at forward tonight and not the best forward prospect we have down there right now. Please tell me more about how the AHL is a great situation for these guys.

 

[StayAtHomeAv]

Would suck if Beaudin and Nantel get no ice time in the AHL.

And it sucks for Eagle fans that Belzile isn't in CO as well.

All three need to be sent over here if they are not playing.

 

[tigervixxxen]

It's Ontario tonight so they are good for at least one injury out of this game. I know they'll be calling guys up from the echl in no time. Still, the idealism vs reality is hilarious.
