Dr. Sanchez how has Gambrell looked in the A since his latest recall? I know it's the Ducks, but I thought yesterday was one of his better pro games and he does always seem to improve every time he goes down. Appreciate the response.
When he first got sent down he was a little rough. First few games you didn't notice him at all. Then the last few weeks he got right back into his groove from last season. Three different multi-point games in the span of a couple weeks. When he's on, which he has been, he's probably the Barracuda's top offensive player.
That was true last year too, though, that's the thing. It's the same sort of situation as when Sorensen started on the team: The first two years, lots of AHL production but not a lot of that translating to the NHL. I don't think Gambrell's going to grow any more down in the AHL, but it'll be a good place to send him if he needs to get his confidence going again. It'd be great if he starts to show some NHL progress right now, but I think next year is when he really might start to show something.
