Disappointing season all round. Big club appears to be in decline, and no apparent help on the way up either.
We already got it: Spooner, Pastrnak & Ferlin.
Add Anresson to that list too. And Morrow.
Arnesson isn't coming up anytime soon, but Morrow is close. Interestingly, he's more of a puck-mover in Providence than he was when we saw him up in Boston.
I wonder if Sweeney is getting ready to flex his pimp hand and show Cassidy to the guillotine? Sure hope so ...
Morrow was playing extra cautious under Julien. He played very safe, but very, very good hockey in Boston.
Long night at rink, just getting over it.
Brutal call on Carey with minute and a half left. Some random thoughts.
Carey was flying(he has bottom six potential) > than Talbot.
Castro can really skate.
Both goalies > than Bostons back up now.
Sexton works ars off every shift.
Koko looked good.
Phillips is good and underrated.
Griffth deserves a real shot.
Flick.Florek have improved significantly > or a least equal to than Campbell/Paille.
More later still struggling with loss.
I'm not trying to bust your chops, but with Pasta, and Spooner in addition to all these glowing reviews for a bunch of PRO players...how the hell did they lose to Hartford?
Hartford must have dressed a bunch of AHL lifers just trying to win.
Just want to make sure....you realize Pasta missed the last two games, right?
All series the Bruins were one shot and out.
The call the Pack got that tied the game was rediculous.
The bruins had two great loffensive series n OT that just missed.
Griffith went after ref after OT goal, wish i new what was said.
Every playoff series Cassidy coached went the max. (Hershey 5 WBS 7, Spr 5 WBS 7, HFD 5)
I think Cassidy will be called up if Claude stays. Pandelfo will be coach and Kevin will be given option to stay or go.
I dont get something dont wanna star an argument nothing, but most say Peter couldnt draft for crap. (I say his First Rounds have been very good after IDK) so why is evryone uposet they dont play the "prospects"? Serious question
(Please ignore all spelling and what not on my tablet I'm not used to yet.)
I think Hartford was the worst team they could draw in round one. They played much better against Manchester all season. Divver noted on the last day of the season Providence had only taken 2 of 8 points from Hartford all year and hadn't scored a goal at the XL Center during the regular season. Sometimes teams are just bad matchups. Hartford has big dmen who are good at tangling up smaller skill guys who like to play the puck along the wall and behind the net. And Danis at this level is as good a goalie as you will get.
I think that if Sweeney is named GM, Pandolfo might become assistant GM/defacto Providence GM. Jay made a lot of notes I'm sure behind the bench. None of these guys may be thrilled with Cassidy, but they might also not be impressed with too many of the prospects and the rather obvious indifference they showed in the playoffs. We'll see. If we saw 3/4 the hustle that guys like Kane and Sexton showed in every game in that series, I think we'd be talking Round 2 right now.
