Prospect Info: Bakersfield Condors '19-20 Season

[joestevens29]

The only problem with Yamamoto is he has played more NHL games than he should have played to date(zero).

People judge him far too harshly for briefly playing a limited role in a league he wasn't close to ready for on a bad team.

The day we drafted him there were quite a few that said he needed time to develop.

I mean the guy was a late first rounder, those guys are rarely NHL ready as it is. But because Debrincat was able to play so early people want to assume all smaller guys can do it.

 

[joestevens29]

let's keep Yamamoto down in Bako for at least half the season...get his confidence really high

if he continues to dominate, then reward him

I think the problem we are going to run into soon is we are going to need offense up in the NHL and will be forced to call someone up. Maybe they go with Gagner first to allow KY more time in the AHL.

I don't think there's any problem at all with calling up players to test them in a few NHL games. It's a natural part of development. If a guy plays 62 games in the AHL and 5 games in the NHL, is that player worse off than if he plays 68 AHL games?

I just don't really want to do it yet. We did the samething with JP last year. Send him down for 4 games and then back up he came.

Would rather KY play 15-20 games and then bring him up. Let that confidence really grow.

Any update on Evan Bouchard fellas?

 

[Tobias Kahun]

Any update on Evan Bouchard fellas?

He just turned 34 last week.

 

[McDNicks17]

Michael Downing and former Oil King, Cody Corbett, have been loaned to Bako.

Guess they needed some bodies on D while Lagesson is up.

 

[Fourier]

Is it just me or does it feel like Bak never plays??

 

[Bryanbryoil]

Any update on Evan Bouchard fellas?

Scored his first regular season AHL goal recently. Beyond that I haven't seen much of him since he was sent down.

 

[NeverForget06]

How has Caleb Jones been? For a while I really thought he was going to be the one who would be the first to make an impact with the big club. Bear really took a step on him over this offseason it seems.

 

[Del Preston]

Gagner up, Haas down.

 

[GodPucker]

Haas was getting thrown around out there. Needs to get tougher.

Gagner up, Haas down.

Woot! Finally some skill in the bottom-6. Too good for the Condors.

 

[Senor Catface]

Next week will be good. 3 games in 5 days

Imo Jones was a better all round player but never showed the top end skill that Bear did. Once Bear improved his physical conditioning and skating it wasn't even close.

Not a good start by Skinner tonight. 5 minutes into first period and he's allowed 2 goals

Not his fault. 1st goal was an ugly give away from Bouchard in the slot (bad pass from Vesey) and the second on was on the PK.

This team is having defensive problems Jones-Lowe is the top-pair but would be a better second pair. The other two are bottom-pair in the AHL. Bouchard is an elite passer but really tentative on D.

 

[McTonyBrar]

WOW... Cave just knocked out Pospisal with a punch. Guy is knocked out it seems. He's not moving

 

[voxel]

Colby Cave just KOed the Heat player on a fight. He collapsed after strong right. Wow.

EDIT: Was pretty even fight until then. The Heat player kinda hit Cave while Cave was on the ground on the boards while battling for the puck and Cave DID NOT like that and started the fight.

Knocked the f*** out. Wow.

Good, that little puke likes to run around and take 150 foot runs at players.

Don't feel bad that he's sleeping now.

Yams-Malone line had an elite first shift of the game. Complete domination but since then it's been even and then Heat score twice.

Three times

 

[voxel]

Wow... nothing is going right. Don't know who was supposed to cover Robinson (?). Looked like an innocent rush. And bam Heat score again.

Where’s Starrett?
