What are the opinions on Gerbe and Dalpe being the 1st 2 call-ups?

I honestly think they should play in the ahl. I'd try out Dano, Rob, MacInnis, Stenlund, Sherwood, TFW even Thurkauf first.

Dalpe could fill a 12th forward spot if there's injury and no young guy seem to fit the role but that's pretty much it. I don't see Gerbe playing for the jackets this year at all.

I agree. Gerbe and Dalpe are where they should be. I like Sherwood and Robinson to go up first. Of course it would depend on who got hurt. I need to see TFW more before I have an opinion on him, but so far he has a nice game. Dano because of experience. McInnis and Stenlund are the same to me. Stenlund would probably go first. I have never really heard what Columbus thinks of McInnis. He is a nice player, I just don't know how he would do in the nhl. Stenlund is a better scorer, but McInnis is good off the puck and decent defensively.

I agree except I'm not sure I see why Dano would get called up over Dalpe. Dalpe seems to me to be more capable across the board, but I think that's just my opinion.

My call-up orders would look like this -

For centers: Stenlund, MacInnis, Dalpe.

For wings: Sherwood, Hannikainen, Robinson, Gerbe.

hanni has already been called up if you didn't notice.

Yep, I just wanted to state my call-up order for a fully healthy lineup. I would rather see Sherwood in the lineup in Columbus than Hannikainen, but if it's just for 13th F then it doesn't matter.

The way things are going I'm not sure if Bemstrom is going to stay up, so we might need another 4th liner soon. I'd like to see Sherwood.

 

[Jackets Woodchuck]

Sherwood may be 1st

 

[Jackets Woodchuck]

Haven't seen Bittner since the 1st game. Is he hurt? Didn't notice if he skated in the warm ups and just didn't play.

Didn't see him miss a practice, but may have been held out of games as a precaution.

Robinson/Dalpe/Dano
Vigneault/Scott/Sherwood
Thurkauf/MacInnis/Bittner
Gallant/Barach/Fix-Wolansky
Korostelev/(MacInnis)/Fortier

No changes to d pairings

Don't read too much into Fix-Wolansky on the fifth line for now. It's only practice, and Monday at that.

 

[Jackets Woodchuck]

Will be back at practice Thursday.

Interesting lines. I seem to recall Stenlund and Sherwood having chemistry last year, and the best line early last year was Robinson, Dalpe, and Bittner. Would personally like to see TFW with Stenlund and Sherwood, I think it would be an interesting mix of skills, size, speed.

sad that tfw isnt playing

 

[Monstershockey]

Monsters power play is horrible. Now 1-17. Nice that Bittner is back in. Hope they pull it out.

 

[Monstershockey]

Make that 1-18, with a penalty halfway through to negate it. Sheesh.

 

[Monstershockey]

Stenlund just scored a nice backhand top shelf goal. 2-1 Monsters.

 

[pled]

3-2 still 0 pp goal after 2

 

[pled]

second of the night for matteau he's playing pretty well. wouldn't mind him staying in the lineup.

Gerbe got primary assist on the 3 goals.

 

[Monstershockey]

Monsters score on the power play. Tie game. 2-21. The power play is improving.

 

[pled]

is it just ahltv or the camera at Rochester particularly bad ?

 

[Monstershockey]

I think it is ahl tv. It was better last year, this year has been pretty crappy so far.

 

[Monstershockey]

Monsters win in shootout. Kiv gave up 3 goals but he made a lot of big saves, especially in overtime and the shootout. He looks much improved so far.

 

[pled]

What a game for Gerbe. he should have been 1st star

 

[Maylo]

@majormajor Hands!

 

[pled]

VV in tonight and Barach replace Thurkauf

 

[pled]

the pp is now 2/23 and VV is having a pretty bad start :\

they lost 2-0

 

[pled]

gonna be hard to put Matteau on the bench after his performance but since Hanni is coming back not sure what they will do maybe let Gerbe rest for a game or maybe Columbus will recall someone else.

Dano is actually the guy out for Hanni.
Also Karlsson first game. replacing Somerby.
Thurkauf back in for Barach.
Kiv in the net.
Rest is the same.
TFW still out of the lineup
