Prospect Info: Bakersfield Condors '18-19 Season

[TopShelfGloveSide]

7 in a row hey? Wow!

 

[TopShelfGloveSide]

How did Spooner look?

 

[North]

I kind of want to see Currie get a call up at some point just to see what we have in him.

 

[PaPaDee]

At least we have one decent team in our system.

 

[trick91]

we should bring up the entire Currie-Benson-Marody line and let them play as our 3rd/4th line.

Why the hell would you want our prospects to play on the fourth line?

They should play one season in the AHL then get a shot in the NHL

Because if they could help us win then why not? Benson is the only young guy on that line.

Did you see how much Hitchcock plays our fourth line? They would be getting less than 10 minutes a night, which would be horrible for their development.

If they earn more playing time then would it? There is only so much that you can learn at the AHL level. Neither Currie or Benson know what a NHL regular season game feels like.

I have no problem will calling up Currie since he is already 26 years old. However, with someone like Benson, I would call him up if he gets to play with RNH, Draisaitl or McDavid.

I'd give him a game on the 4th line to see what he's capable of before bumping him up. The familiarity of playing with your existing linemates shouldn't be overlooked here either.

None of these players are good enough to play in the NHL right now. They are all great, and you hope they can get there. But there are clear situational holes in their games.

Afternoon game today, Shane Starrett is playing both ends of the back to back. He's been the best Condor, he kept them in the first period. Scoreless headed to the 2nd.

 

[replacement]

Two quick goals for the Condors! Jones banks a point shot in off Gambardella's skate, and Spooner rips a nice shot on a semi-break.

2-0 Condors.

Ethan Bear just took a high hit, and looks quite rattled. Really hope he's okay, he's been excellent during this streak.

 

[replacement]

Condors hanging on for dear life in the third, Polei just took a bad penalty to give Tucson their 6th PP with 4 minutes left.

 

[replacement]

Gambardella with the empty netter, Condors win 3-1. 8 in a row. Starrett outstanding again.

 

[CycloneSweep]

I think Bakersfield would beat us

 

[replacement]

Ethan Bear didn't return to the game after a high hit, here's to hoping it's nothing serious and he can come back after the all-star break 100%.

The ice time is a reflection of the quality of the players. A fast dynamic (and hungry) 4th line would get more than 10 minutes a night.

I think its an excellent idea to call up the 1st line from Bakersfield and play them as a 4th line.

 

[Bryanbryoil]

Starrett is 7th in the AHL in GAA and 10th in sv%. I wonder if he pushes himself into the conversation of being our back-up next season?

He might. It'd also let them move Skinner up to the AHL level.

 

[Oilers in NS]

Anyone on here that goes to the games or are people watching on TV?

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Not sure I’d be comfortable with...

Kosko
Starrett

Wells
Skinner


... as the tandems or next year. I think you need to toss 2 to 3 mil at a 1B type (think Elliot, Mrazek, Halak, Greiss, ect) on a one year deal. Just to keep things stable.

If everyone continues to show well, then have everyone move up a notch the year after.

It's going to be really interesting what happens in the crease this summer. I definitely think they're going to need a 25-30 game backup at the NHL level, but that's gonna cause some issues for ice time with prospects. There will still be Skinner, Wells and Starrett(assuming he's re-signed); and often forgotten prospect Hayden Hawkey is turning pro as well. Quite crowded, and I definitely don't think it's ideal to have two developing prospects splitting time in the ECHL.

My friend bought a package. That’s why I don’t see many games. I go over to his place for the occasional game.

probably after Talbot gets traded, he gets a call-up
