Worcester Sharks News & Discussion V

[DonskoiDonscored]

Not a lot to see...Worcester killed them for two periods and then didn't do anything in the third. Was a huge "must win" for Portland and the WorSharks get to face the team they wanted to. Win - win.

Should've known that before I bought the replay

Beautiful tic-tac-toe goal between Tierney, Goldobin, and Goodrow @ 1:10 mark.

 

[Pinkfloyd]

It's a lovely play but I have a hard time believing that'll happen at the NHL level. lol

That's how I feel about a lot of these goals. The final goal was entirely on the defense. Never would have happened at the NHL level.

So for the AHL regulars here, what is the thoughts on matching up with Hershey. Are they not as good as their seed? Do the Sharks stand a chance? With all the additions from the big club are we actually better than Hershey?

Planning to go to the game Saturday, do I have to worry about a sellout or can I walk up and grab a ticket again like I did in the regular season?

Will Goldobin definitely be playing in the playoffs?

1) I think Worcester has a very good shot vs Hershey, and the Bears are worthy of the #2 seed. It's the team I was hoping the WorSharks would play.

2) I don't think you have to worry about a sellout, but I do expect many of the good seats to be taken.

3) Well, nothing is 100% but I'd say there a great chance he's playing.

Brendan Ellis recalled from ECHL South Carolina

 

[LadyStanley]

So between "earned time off" and helping out with Warriors playoffs, sounds like he might be covering the WoSharks from cross country.

 

[210]

Well, seeing as the WorSharks playoffs start Friday I'm guessing we can look forward to his getting his facts straight just as much as always...

Kurz's interview with Sommer on Tierney, Goldobin, etc.

"The starting goaltender for Game 1 is unknown."

Yeah, Aaron Dell.

If it's not it's over before we start.

Lots of good stuff from Sommer in that article...he's got the orgs "talk" down pat.

Also, I agree.

Hershey had a goalie called up to bolster Caps.

Philipp Grubauer.

Go look up Pheonix Copley's stats and you see that recall hardly hurts the Bears.

 

[Howe Elbows 9]

Stats for a few Hershey players;

Pheonix Copley - 17W 4L 3OT, 2.17 GAA, .925GAA, 3SO

Tim Kennedy - 75GP, 11G, 48A
Casey Wellman - 73GP, 25G, 29A
Connor Carrick (D) - 73GP, 8G, 34A

 

[spintheblackcircle]

Pheonix?

I just want him to lose because of that name.

 

[SactoShark]

Pheonix?

I just want him to lose because of that name.

Pheonix? lol. I think his parents might want to spell check that.

Hey look it's Tim Kennedy! And the Bay Area's own, Casey Wellman.

Was looking for the 3-2 OT winner from 2010 playoffs, anyone know where I could find that?

 

[Sharksrule04]

UMass alum Casey Wellman! A few weeks back I saw Vatrano score his first professional goal at the DCU Center. Hope Wellman gets shut out in this series.

Speaking of Bay Area's own, UMass picked up a commitment from Justin Dixson who apparently grew up in that area. Sorry, I know this doesn't relate to Worcester.
