2012-2013 Colorado Ava...Lake Erie Monsters Thread Part III

[Pierce Hawthorne]

Hishon just scored his first pro goal!

Awesome is the only word needed to describe that.

 

[Bubba Thudd]

deja vu

 

[Zandar]

Gaunce is just going through the motions now. Both he and ROB are less physical and puppy dgs compared to last season(s). And if they would stop leaving Aittokallio to weather their mistakes...

Hoping the Avs are able to move him for something while he still has some semblance of value.

And move him they did.

Anyhow...anyone wish to do a quick recap of what went wrong with the Monsters this year? The injury bug didn't really deplete the ranks this time around like it has in previous seasons, so what happened? Is Chynoweth in as much trouble as Sacco?

Based on what I saw of them during the lockout the two main problems was a lack of skill and a lack of veterans. They were outskilled most nights with Sgarbossa, Agozzino, Barrie and Elliott and possibly Lerg being the only skill players.

Also, most AHL teams that succeed tend to have a bunch of AHL veterans. LEM don't really have a lot of those and those they have can't really carry the team, being more utility players.

I'm sure carrying two rookie goalies also isn't ideal, but I don't think that has been a major problem.

 

[The Mars Volchenkov]

Vincour with two more goals tonight and Hishon with a couple assists. Tied 4-4 in the 3rd.

 

[Nihiliste]

If Vincour and Elliott eventually stick as NHLers for us that will literally be 5 guys from 2009.

 

[Orwell1984]

Pickard out tonight with an injury. Nice Monsters effort against a good team.

Thats a rough loss for them, with Sami called up for the avs road trip. Does LEM have any games before Saturday?

Hell of a draft for the Avs that year.

A #1 C, a very good #2C. Barrie looks well on his way to becoming a solid #3 Dman. Elliott is a bit harder to tell, but until this year he was more promising then Barrie. He still has Top 4 upside and at the least should be a bottom pairing puck mover.

Very good draft from the Avs, and the Vincour acquisition is looking pretty good too.

They'll have Patterson and Millan, Denver's season is over now anyway.

 

[Foppa Frossa]

Yeah Patty is already with the team.

[Nihiliste]

It's nice having four good young goalies in the system.

 

[Skip2myBordyloo]

it's funny watching the lake erie highlights with the guitar playing the whole way through it's like it's the 90's all over again.

nice to see hishon plugging along

maybe we'll give vincour a call up if he keeps potting goals.

Vincour won't just get a call up he will be put on the first PP unit with McLeod since Sacco sure loves his grinders.

 

[droughs]

joey hishon just got hit from behind into the glass. He left the game and won't return(upper body) i hope everything is alright

 

[S E P H]

What is the deal with hockey players cheap-shoting Hishon? Is he like an alien of the ancients that hold all secrets of the universe or something? Or did McNabb hire someone to try to finish the job?

 

[Freudian]

Sgarbossa not playing either. If it ain't broke, it's not Avalanche.

seems this maggio guy took exception to the play, putting up 27 pims.

You have got to be ****ing kidding me.

 

[The Mars Volchenkov]

Pock is also out. Maybe he got called up?

3 assists for Vincour.

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

****, was looking at the score sheet and was surprised to Hishon without anything on the board in such a high scoring game for the Monsters, now I know why.


Not often one says this, but I really hope its just a shoulder injury and not a head injury.


Vincour with 3 apples again tonight. Has Shermy pulled another magic trick with this trade like he did with the Ginner trade?

 

[Avs_19]

Monsters twitter hasn't even said anything about Hishon leaving the game. Following in the Avs' footsteps when it comes to talking about injuries.

I wanna see what Vincour can do in the NHL.
