Prospect Info: Bakersfield Condors '17-18 Thread

[smokersarejokers]

Very interesting. Good to finally see a bit of forward depth. I think Larkin will end up in the ECHL and Yamamoto will be in Edmonton. Safin will probably be back in the Q, but Hebig, Benson and Vesel should all be in Bakersfield IMO.

Defence is very interesting. What is the rule on dressing veteran players? Here are the possible d-men for next year:

Lowe
Stanton
Simpson
Gryba
Mantha
Bear
Jones
Betker
Lagesson?
Desharnais?

So is there a chance this team makes the playoffs?

About nill. The Pacific has actually been good this year, as there isnt a team under the Bettman .500. The team's horrid start really did them in.

 

[CycloneSweep]

That line looks good again.

Hopefully they can get some points. What is Vessel looking like at the AHL level?

Looking really good

Larkin with an assist for his first pro point in tonight's 2-1 loss.

 

[Bryanbryoil]

Looking really good

Hopefully we sign him to a NHL contract then.

Nice hit by Polei at 0:30. Not much else in there.

The play by Safin shortly afterwards was worth mention.

 

[McDNicks17]

Should we pool our money together and get @Bryanbryoil one of these jerseys that Chicago's AHL team is wearing tonight?

Can't find a smaller image lol.

 

[Bryanbryoil]

I don't know if they make one big enough to fit me! 3XLT!

Don't tell me you're Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson?

Nope, not as ripped but bigger and taller. And not that it needs confirmation but not as good looking either

 

[Digger12]

Not sure if anyone cares these days, but Bakersfield won 3-2 last night.

Highlights:

-Gambardella with 2 goals. He's been on a bit of a run, 7 goals in his last 9 games after only 1 goal in his previous 17

-Platzer had a goal and 2 assists, his best game of the year

-Vesel assisted on Platzer's winning goal, his first point as a pro

-Safin doesn't appear to have done much...no points, no shots on goal, no penalties

I was about to ask in the prospects thread what happened to vesel.

good to see he is in the ahl now.

Does Bakersfield even have a chance at making the playoffs?

They're 2 games back of Texas with 5 games left. There's a chance but they pretty much need to win out and get quite a bit of help.

Throwing Benson in there might help.

 

[Bryanbryoil]

It would be great if they pulled it off. Vessel, Safin, Benson, maybe Yamamoto, maybe Hebig, maybe Maksimov, etc. could all get their first taste of AHL hockey.

 

[MoneyGuy]

Too bad we can't send players from our AHL-A team down to bolster our B team's lineup.

Could we send Jesse down there? It wouldn't hurt although IIRC you have to be playing with the team at a certain date late in the season to be eligible for the playoffs.

The Condors make a strange end of season road trip to Winnipeg to take on the Manitoba Moose for 2 games tomorrow and Sunday.

Benson and Samorukov are playing tonight for the Condors. Yamamoto not going be assigned to Bakersfield due to injury.
