Barracuda News & Discussion VII

[Hobocop]

AHL transaction page says Barracuda have signed defenseman Billy Constantinou to a contract. He played on a tryout in the preseason, did pretty well for himself in the game I saw. Probably a depth option:

It also lists Patrick Sieloff as "added," he was the other defense tryout, but doesn't say he's been signed to a contract. It could mean he's just there until he's released from his tryout, isn't really clear.

When was the last time the AHL squad iced this much talent at the same time? Super excited for tonight’s game!!

 

[Hobocop]

Forward scratches would be: McGrath, Coe, Wiesblatt. I know Wiesblatt got hurt in the preseason.

No Cicek, either.

That fourth line is going to be an absolute pain to play against.

But I was told by @STL Shark and others that Dell was signed to be a “spare goalie” and not the Barracuda starter.

No goalie shown... the link above takes you to some story abpout signing a couple dmen instead of the roster.

It's just cut off by the thumbnail.

The article does just say in the first sentence we've announced our roster before talking about the signings. It does answer my earlier question, looks like Sieloff is under contract for us as well. We've got plenty of defensive depth now if nothing else, Sieloff's a longtime veteran of this league.

 

[Hobocop]

Agozzino is our new captain.

I'm not sure why we have six alternates, but: Johnson, Sieloff, McGrath, Suess, Pouliot, Viel.

Impressive pass by Agozzino there to Bordeleau.

Bords looks comfortable. Robins with a wicked shot. Gushchin is a bit timid so far. Eklund has had a few good carries but that’s it. Overall the skill level seems night and day from last year.

Also Merkley must have spent to offseason just forgetting how to do anything creative with the puck

I'm not watching but it seems like Merkley is more of a Pavel Barber than a Pavel Datsyuk

Eklund taking a sharp turn at his own blueline and losing his feet and the puck, leading to a dangerous chance for the Wild was awkward...

The ice looks bad on the video feed. Like really bad.

Reedy right back to doing Reedy things. 3-0 on a deflection, PPG.
