[Classic Devil]

Phil DeSimone scores in his return to the AHL, a powerplay goal to tie the game at 1.

Was at the game today and I also went to the Trenton game Friday.

Some random notes:

-I didn't realize how big Urbom/Gelinas were, I was suprised.
-Zajac's line was the best line in both the Trenton game and today. He had a goal and an assist today.
-Leach is ****ing awful
-No chemistry with lines but it's expected when 8 regularly playing forwards are called up
-McKelvie, D. and K. Zajac combined for a sexy goal
-Kelly (Defenseman) looked off today, but he was gritty.
-Leach is ****ing atrocious
-They came back from 1-0, 2-0, and then 4-2, only for Anderson to take a goalie interference penalty and them win the game on that.
-Kinkaid played well, hard to fault him on any of the goals.
-Finally, Leach is ****ing dreadful.

How did Leach look today?

He's been up in the AHL for a while now. He hasn't played often though, that will definitely change.

How did Leach look today?

I defended him in the past, but he brings absolutely nothing to the game. Nothing. He's useless in the AHL, I'd rather see that spot filled by another youngster who at least has some kind of upside, or at the very least, a very proficient top-AHL defenseman.

I guess they only keep him around for the mentorship aspect.

I still have how awful Jay Leach was in the NHL embedded in my brain. How we had a winning record with him getting ANY ice time I don't have a clue. It was also the year Marty missed most of the season, so a lot of unbelievable things happened that season. That's the only explanation.

I think he was related to Sutter also, because Brent would NEVER call this guy out in post games like he did other guys. It was always somebody else's fault like any of the other 5 guys on the ice.

Hey Albany scored 4 goals with a depleted lineup though!

 

[New Jersey Devils]

Who was out tonight for Albany? Butler, Josefson, Larsson, and Tedenby?

All of them, because all were at camp today though Josefson didn't skate today.
