Kotkaniemi with some great moves almost scores his first AHL goa.

Hartford scores on a broken play to make it 1-0.

So with his play in theAHL of late as a 19 year old how do people view his upside now?

 

[Adam Michaels]

Hartford makes it 2-0 off a wrist shot from the blue line. A lot of bodies in front of Primeau. Don't know if it was tipped or deflected.

It's too early to tell. I've seen both good and bad. But, a lot of magic seems to happen when he's on the ice, it just doesn't complete.

Vejdemo created something but Alzner skated too slow to catch the pass.

I've been looking for when this happened. Can you give me the time stamp I'd love to see what Vejdemo created. Thx

Maybe 1 or 2 minutes before the end of the period, sorry.

AHLTV 's sound is really scratchy. Hard to listen to. The home English feed does't sound scratchy. Does anyone else hear it?

 

[Zusammenhalt]

Just under two minutes left. Would be nice to get a goal and make it easier in the third

 

[Zusammenhalt]

Congrats Alex Burrows

 

[ahmedou]

We've to find the solution immediately...

Riley Barber scores on a nicely opened net.

Found it. The pass was short about 1 foot otherwise it could have been a beauty.

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

f*** everything

 

[Zusammenhalt]

Wolfpack scores an empty net goal. Laval 1 - Wolfpack 3

 

[Kennedys]

KK hot streak is over

I still think he has #2 to #1 upside, but not necessarily elite. Really needs to work on his strength training. At his height, he should be playing at minimum 206lbs. I think he's still around 186.

He's easily 20-25 lbs underweight. That could take a couple more years for him to fully reach his potential.

Thornton was the same way. Looked like a scrawny deer on ice especially his 1st year.

 

[Schwang]

Another loss?! Geezus. Glad to see KK and Poehling helping Laval so much.
Why are these guys losing so much all of a sudden? I know Evans, Weiss and Ouellette are gone, but come on. I’m having serious doubts about our young prospects.

He's close to 200 IIRC from training camp.

Timmins special.

f***ing habs organisation since 2008.

Most players lose weight over the season, but he still needs to gain muscle mass and strengthen his legs.
