All Things AHL 2018-2019

[Blueston]

Doesn't matter to a contingent of our posters on here. Even if the is playing with a broken wrist and a broken leg, he should be called up to the Blues, on the first line and getting 37 minutes a night. Cause he is a young and promising and management is stupid if they don't play him over Tarasenko who is slow and regressing.

It's not mutually exclusive that Kyrou isn't ready to contribute and Tarasenko is past his prime and on slow decline. Given what we now know about when players tend to peak, both are likely true.

Tarasenko may have peaked, but this isn't when players decline. He should still be a peak performance for a few more years.

Forwards start to decline typically by 27-28 and then it accelerates after 30.

Decline is absolutely the wrong word. People use that all the time and it’s not true at all.

Is "produce less" better?

Is "produce less" better?

I think plateau has less negative connotations.

Regression or decline is typically reserved for players on the south side of 32 where the decreases in scoring tend to be abrupt as younger players push them and nickel & dime older players for prime minutes quickly should they falter.

Is Fitzpatrick nursing a minor injury? Coreau got both starts on the back to backs.

 

[Vincenzo Arelliti]

Guys, the Rampage are good and they don’t even have Sanford or Blais on the team right now. Kostin looked good tonight.

Or MacEachern. Or Binnington.

Don't worry. Husso will be back soon enough to ruin their winning ways. He's as good as Allen at ruining team's chances to win. Isn't that right, @Ranksu? Soft Kitten Jr.

AHL TV is only 25$ for those interested in the rampage push for the playoffs. It’s much higher quality than in the past. I think roughly 720p with much clearer image so it’s worth the money imo. Especially if the big team gets healthy again and starts sending ppl back.

 

[Coach Nate]

Rampage take on the Moosen in 42 minutes. It also means another round of @RWtHLive's first goal contest. Who scores first for the Rampage today in Winnipeg? I know who it won't be! (ahemFlynnCough) I'll go with Reinke Doodle Dandy.

 

[Vincenzo Arelliti]

With no MacMac, Kyrou, Blais, Sanford, etc., I’ll have to go with Poganski.

Reinke!

I win.

Brian Flynn Signs With Zug (NLA)

 

[Coach Nate]

The Rampage wrap up their quick road trip with a visit to Milwaukee tonight. Who's going to get that first @SARampage goal?
I'll take Joey Leggs tonight.

Interested to see how Kyrou does in the fastest skater competition at the AHL All Star Game.

 

[BlueDream]

Whoa, he hit 13.5 seconds. That’s pretty much what McDavid has been posting.

 

[Brockon]

Whoa, he hit 13.5 seconds. That’s pretty much what McDavid has been posting.

And still only places 2nd to Greco's 13.251s record... I wish they'd have used the player trackers here too just so you could compare the straight line speed vs the speed through the corners for each competitor.

 

[MortiestOfMortys]

Paajarvi was pretty quick too

Paajarvi was pretty quick too

He didn’t have anywhere near that quality of edge work. He had straight line speed. That’s it. Kyrou’s skating is the complete package.

 

[Vincenzo Arelliti]

Kyrou’s top speed isn’t even his best skating asset
