It sounds like most of the team we saw last night from Carolina will be assigned to the ECHL since they have no AHL affiliate. That does not seem like an ideal development path.

 

[triggrman]

which defenseman is switching to the left?

 

[BigFatCat999]

Watch they trade Fabbro+ for a top line forward.

Watch em trade fabbro for garland or boeser

We have so much pessimism.

I thought they were going to send a few to Milwaukee actually

That's what we HOPED. Dominating the ECHL and possibly being an AHL kingmaker is what they want.

I'm surprised more teams might not have room for some of their best AHL-level prospects. I've been saying for a couple months I'd love to nab a couple of forwards for Milwaukee. (Suzuki and Ponomarev have not been assigned yet that I know of, and those are still 2 guys I would very gladly take on Milwaukee). We don't have room for a D or Kochetkov, but I still feel like we could take a couple forwards.

Suzuki got hurt in last night's game against the Preds.

I like the nod to still looking at Parssinen at center, Josi with Fabbro, Fagemo moving to RW1. It's a good look for Fagemo vs. Gurianov. Other things seem a little "forced"... Barrie and Schenn as RDs doesn't seem that useful to me, nor continuing to try a full "kid line" in Tomasino-Novak-Evangelista.... they do need a different element in there with Novak-Evangelista IMO.

Getting a bad penalty is not a good start for McCarron. I fully anticipate a loss tonight to the "full Canes" powerhouse team.

Suzuki got hurt in last night's game against the Preds.

Unless it's season-ending, I still want him on Milwaukee.

Is it bad that I actually kind of like listening to out-of-town broadcasts, (assuming they don't have some drunken dinosaur on color, anyway)?

 

[Armourboy]

We haven't been great but at least it feels like we aren't driving dump trucks vs ferraris against Carolina anymore.

Carolina has some of the best in the business. I’d trade ours for theirs and throw in a couple of bags of pucks to boot.

Lol. Trip does sound like he got a head start this evening.

He's excited... but not rambling incoherently, so I'll take it!

 

[ShagDaddy]

If I’m not mistaken Trip went into rehab last year and got sober

 

[Predation]

The incoherent rambling will probably start during the third period!

It’s all good, he’s very entertaining!

 

[Porter Stoutheart]

Ok, f*ck the whole Canes broadcast for that "power metal scream" ad. That was insulting to us power metal nerds.

 

[Porter Stoutheart]

I do not think of Nashville as "the biggest team in the league". Like, at all.
