I'm glad that Halverson is playing, especially in the AHL, but I am a bit concerned what happens if Evan Fitzpatrick gets injured. Orlando has an ATO goalie who has never played a minute pro.

The SPHL has finished up, but ECHL teams can only add amateur try-outs in the playoffs.

Merela wins Game 3 in Double OT







Gabriel Szturc also made his AHL debut tonight on a line with Groshev and Fortier. The last time Szturc had a Crunch jersey on was in the AHL preseason back in early October

Has there been any updates on Huuhtanen?

EP doesn't have any stats for him in Syracuse.

Drummondville advances to the Q Finals. Ethan Gauthier will play for a championship and a potential spot in the Memorial Cup

 

[These Are The Days]

Crunch blow a 3 goal lead and lose in OT. Good to see the Lightning 2023-2024 traditions making its way to the AHL too

 

[Fan from AK]

Epic choke job in Syracuse tonight by the Lightning clones. 3-0 lead going into the third and LOSE!!!!!! Seriously, WTF??????

you beat me to it.

This should be Hugo's last season in the organization. For all of his potential, he has failed season after season to establish himself as the number one AHL goalie this organization so hoped he would be. I have made enough excuses for his lackluster play, enough is enough with him. Whether he finds a home with another organization here in North America or heads overseas, his departure will not be missed and will open the door for other goaltenders to realize the number one AHL spot in the Tampa Bay organization is wide open.

Avslöjar: Hugo Alnefelt värvas tillbaka till HV71

HV71 stärker upp målvaktssidan. Hugo Alnefelt kommer spela i HV71 nästa säsong, enligt uppgifter till Expressen.

Hugo will be presented by HV71 once Syracuse's season ends.

Not Franz Jean’s fault probably but man do we suck in developing goalies. Sad to see Hugo fail and leave, had high hopes for him.

Shame to draft him in the 3rd round and he never progresses enough, meanwhile one of the top goalies (Dustin Wolf) in that draft fell all the way to the 7th round purely based on height and has been a top goalie in the A. Wolf would have been at minimum, an elite trade chip, and at maximum, the goalie of the future to be the full-time backup for Vasilevskiy.

Whoever our amateur scouts are right now need to start drafting better overall, but especially in net and on defense.

What's up with Nick Malik? His numbers recently haven't been that good, but he's still KooKoo's starting goalie.

We might end up drafting an older goalie this year. The top NCAA guys are signed, I think.

Definitely going to need to draft another goalie, but 2 other guys with ties are Persson and Gaudreau

Ludvig Persson was a development camp invite. His senior season at North Dakota: 21-11-2 record, 2.52 GAA, .904 SV%, and 5 shutouts. Was also a finalist for NCHC goaltender of the year. The Wheeling Nailers, the ECHL affiliate of the Penguins signed him to an amateur tryout when his college season ended, but he's back on the market now.

Bolts also have former prospect tournament invite Ben Gaudreau on an amateur tryout with Syracuse. His overage season stats with Sarnia and Erie: 21-11-2 record, 3.31 GAA, .889 SV%, 0 shutouts

ATOs don't mean much. The ECHL team can't even offer a qualifying offer for next season.

 

[Felonious Python]

Bears down 3-0 in their series against Florida (Panthers affiliate).

 

[Hockeyville USA]

Drummondville advances to the Q Finals. Ethan Gauthier will play for a championship and a potential spot in the Memorial Cup

Very hard for me to evaluate the Q properly since the league quality hasn't been great for a long time. Gauthier seems like he should be a solid middle 6er in the league, but who knows. At least we know he doesn't cheat for points much like we've seen with many who came out of the Q.

 

[Point21]

WE HAVE A HUUHTANEN SIGHTING!!!!!!!

 

[Point21]

CRUNCH WIN!!!!!!!!!

 

[Gabrielor]

You guys were the better team for 16 of the 19 periods.

Gratz.

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

Crunch win 5-2

- 2 goals for Koepke
- Merela with the deciding goal. He had 2 of the 3 game winning goals this series including the one in Double OT
- 1 goal, 2 assists for Robert
- 2 assists for ABB
- Lilleberg (1a), Carlile (1g), and Crozier (2a) all chip in too

Ethan Gauthier wins Game 2 1-0 in OT



Drummonville wins the first 2 games of the series on the road in Baie-Comeau. Now they go home for Games 3 and 4 on Monday and Tuesday

This kid was a good pick.

Orlando got eliminated by a guy who calls himself 'Bobo'.

Played all five games in the series. Is he playing that well or is it just a case of the others not being available?
