Post-Game Talk: {AHL} Utica Comets vs. Laval Rocket (Laval Wins 5-4 in OT Off a Nice Goal by Cap X-Man)

[De Montreal]

Crisse, Hudon là...

 

[Hfbsux]

All 3 goals weren't on McNiven. He looks big but a little slow.

 

[montreal]

Interesting that in the 2nd they moved Kotka to center.

Fleury man is he struggling

 

[ahmedou]

We allow too much easy entries in our zone.

 

[montreal]

Loving the Veilleux line.

This team just needs a little bit more talent.

Say, a Poehling, a Caufield and maybe a Suzuki for a playoff run.

they need their goaltending to step up, they have given up 15 goals in 4 of their last 5 games including tonight.

 

[Andrei79]

Great defensive plays by KK.

Also, he's really good positionally for an AHL player.

What he needs is a full summer of strength and skating sessions.

Nice to see Brook with another point hopefully he can make improvements this summer with training

Wait, Kotkaniemi isnt at center ?

 

[Andrei79]

Wait, Kotkaniemi isnt at center ?

He is.

Sometimes Evans takes the faceoff, but he's been playing down the middle.

 

[montreal]

Wait, Kotkaniemi isnt at center ?

he was on Evans wing in the 1st. Evans is one of the top face-off guys on the team so I was surprised they were going to move him to wing, when he's always played center. Move Varone to the wing.

 

[Andrei79]

Nice to see Brook with another point hopefully he can make improvements this summer with training

He's been bad.

Some nice flashes of his skill, but he's so weak physically that it's affecting the rest of his game.

 

[Adam Michaels]

GOAL! Evans on the PP.

Ouellet and Kotkaniemi with the assists.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Damn it man! Utica ties it already.

 

[Andrei79]

3 points for KK.

Just needs to make plays a bit faster 5 on 5, but he's definitely going in the right areas of the ice.

 

[Hins77]

Imo Jake Evans deserve a call up. He is playing with poise, he is going in front on the net and produce.

 

[Big Empty]

Kotka, Poehling, Evans, Fleury, Primeau is going to be a good show

 

[ahmedou]

Gtfo here tie...

 

[Andrei79]

Imo Jake Evans deserve a call up. He is playing with poise, he is going in front on the net and produce.

I hope not. I'd like to see him end the year with Hudon and KK.

 

[montreal]

this has been a good game to watch overall. Laval holding up well vs one of the best teams in the league.

 

[ahmedou]

We got to push...

 

[Adam Michaels]

OT coming up.

Another point for Laval. But another point for Utica. So if Laval wins, they would be 5 pts back of Utica with a game in hand.

 

[DAChampion]

I didn't realize that this was basically a playoff qualification game.

Utica is in the same division, and one spot above Laval.

 

[Adam Michaels]

GOAL! Ouellet with a nice goal to win it for Laval!

 

[Andrei79]

Awesome win !
