[bmore236]

Wasn’t it a goal and 2 assists? My app I use for box scores might be lagging if it changed.

Your right. I saw one statistics that said three assists and now it has been updated.

 

[bmore236]

He got 3 assists and first star yesterday.

 

[The Marquis]

I believe all of those assist were secondary, but hell, I don't care. he's doing well and I'm here for it.

 

[bmore236]

Got a goal yesterday. Let’s hope he can keep it up.

I was actually poking around the AHL's website and idly clicked on the link for their TV package. Holy hell it's expensive. I think it's actually considerably cheaper to pay for ESPN+ for NHL games.

If I could get any minor league hockey package for $7.99/month, which is realistically the max value of those, I’d probably get the AHL and WHL, maybe even ECHL. However, since I can barely get one for the total of 3, they can all go f*** themselves.

AHLTV actually sent me an email yesterday stating that this Saturday's games can all be viewed for free if you make an account-- CV has a game that day, too.

 

[josra33]

wright turned a bad pass from winterton into a nifty little goal kicking the puck to his stick and firing it right away.

Got a goal, assists and second star yesterday.

And a shootout goal! (Although goals in the shootout weren't particularly rare yesterday).

Did Shane Wright get called up? Or is he injured?

 

[Bear of Bad News]

Day-to-day per the Firebirds.

That was a pretty big hit he took, knocked his bucket off. Was good to see him pop right back onto his skates but I hope this isn't a concussion for Wright.
I don't think I've seen it reported as such but that doesn't mean anything.

 

[Bear of Bad News]

19th goal of the year last night and the third star of the game in a 4-1 win at Bakersfield.

 

[Scomerica]

What's the chances of his making the NHL roster next year? Or is he probably going to need another year of AHL experience given his age?

He's doing everything he's been asked this season in the AHL.
He should be on the Kraken next season.

Wright will basically take Wennberg's spot on next year's roster

Wright will basically take Wennberg's spot on next year's roster

I think he will, but I am apprehensive about forcing him into a 2C situation. I would rather us make a move in the off-season to land a 2C and start Wright at 3C. Move Gourde to wing with Wright and Tolvanen.

I do think its doubtful we make such a move but starting Wright at 2C does worry me.

 

[Bear of Bad News]

Two assists last night, second star, Firebirds now 37-13-5-3.
