GDT: Binghamton Devils Gameday

[Tao Jersey Jones]

Campbell took a late penalty with a one goal lead and had the icing but he also played a lot of minutes tonight.

Liking the Coach Dennehy running practice stuff.

 

[Classic Devil]

They gave up one.

Hmmmm... guess I wasn't paying close enough attention.

 

[My3Sons]

Goal! Studenic with a nifty goal off a very well-placed pass.

Who had the assists if anyone saw?

 

[Blackjack]

Great thread. Seems like last year we had AHL depth on the Devils, and this year we have NHL depth on Binghamton.

I think it was Nazarian with the primary.

And White with the secondary.

Well, enough injuries will revert that again.

It had to be Seney with the points? We are never going to hear the end of it now in the team thread. Nico had a bad game call up Seney. Hall took a penalty call up Seney. Hayden is playing call up Seney. These nachos are kind of skimpy on the cheese call up Seney.

to be fair, it's only one devils fan here who is obsessed with Seney. lol

No one else is lamenting Seney not making the team.


If anything, this is proving my point in the other threads that Seney just screams "Career AHL'er" to me.

Maltsev looks good.

I'm not saying he deserved the spot over Boqvist, but I'm not saying he didnt either.

 

[TheUnseenHand]

I will. Boqvist is more skilled and has a better hockey IQ. He generally played against better competition is preseason too. And while he may not be as physically strong as Maltsev, he is better at protecting the puck. Boqvist also has a better shot, is faster, and has played better in the defensive zone. None of this is a knock on Maltsev who I think has an NHL future. I just think we should be more excited at Boqvist.

Martin St Louis was destined to be a career AHLer in Calgary until he moved onto Tampa Bay, a Stanley Cup and the Hall of Fame.

@Taylor Hall , get a load of this :

*comparing Seney to MSL*

 

[Quest for Stanley]

MSL as a true NCAA freshman led Vermont in scoring 4 straight seasons.

Seney as a true NCAA freshman led Merrimack in scoring 4 straight seasons.

MSL first pro season- 13 NHL games, 2pts (.15ppg).

Seney first pro season- 51 NHL games, 13pts (.25ppg).

Obviously Seney has a long way to go but the age to age comparison is interesting since both early in their careers due to size was/is labeled to be “career AHLers”.

Now do PPG for their AHL and college careers.

Seney is doing everything fine but MSL absolutely destroyed college players. MSL had 1 college season that was about 75% the production of Seney’s entire college career.

MSL also started a point per game AHL player and only improved as time went on. Seney isn’t there currently.

There’s no comparison between their college and AHL production. MSL was much better.

Allow me.

Seney: NCAA - 0.83 ppg, AHL - 0.71 ppg
St. Louis: NCAA - 1.92 ppg, AHL - 1.20 ppg (in the dead puck era no less)

Martin St. Louis also played in a time where small players were undervalued because of all the clutching and grabbing in the NHL. Times have changed, and if he hit the league now he'd go straight to the NHL from the NCAA and may not have even finished his NCAA time before making the NHL.

Are you related to Seney in any way? Your love affair with him is a little overboard

Hindsight is 20 20

 

[Classic Devil]

I like Seney and think he could be a productive NHLer, but a St. Louis comparison is well over the top.

Just a reply to an earlier poster’s opinion that Seney is destined to be a “career AHLer”. I don’t agree that’s all. Obviously the Devils don’t agree with the poster either

Maltsev has the AHL option. #'s game.

Not comparing the 2. Just saying MSL faced the same hurdles as Seney early in his career. His ceiling was underestimated by some Calgary fans due to size

Except you were comparing the two.
