Providence Bruins General Discussion thread XIV

KoppaCavana continues to progress...can he be an impact player for the bruins? Big kid and that is a big line.

Game Day!
305pm vs Utica
Should be a good game

Watching last night's tilt, terrible jerseys...

 

[Saxon Eric]

700 pound line strikes first
Very nice goal
Tralmaks still without a contract for next year, criminal!

Ian MacKinnon called back up from Maine

He's barely an impact player for the Providence Bruins. He's played 171 total AHL regular season games, accumulating 26G/27A/53P (0.31 PPG). He has shown steady increase in production since coming to NA. If you take out his first 45 games where he scored 2 goals, he's at 126GP -- 24G/27/51P. That's good for 0.40 PPG. Points certainly are not everything but this is not "impact player" production at the NHL level. It's not even impact production at the AHL level. It's steady and he gets the job done but I think he's destined to be an AHLer or bottom 6 / 4th line/ 13th forward in the NHL.

It's nice to see he's found a niche in Providence this season with a couple other big body players. Hopefully he helps them win a Calder Cup.

Good win last night, first place by 0.001%
Victor Berglund has come a looong way

Is Victor not another product of the PJ Table Pound?

that first line is SO HUGE. Probably the biggest in organized hockey at the moment. Tralmaks is the smallest at 6’4 210 lol

Groesnick is seeing everything right now. Unfortunately Utica scored on a 5 on 3 that rattled in off the crossbar. 1-0.

 

[Memokerobi]

Injuries ,mediocre hands, questionable hockey sense,bad luck and I'm not sure management believes in him
But at least he's playing...

Do you think Asselin ever makes it to the NHL?

 

[rocketdan9]

How has Tralmaks looked this season Saxon Eric?

 

[GarbageGoal]

Doing everything but scoring right now.

 

[Saxon Eric]

Do you think Asselin ever makes it to the NHL?

He's gone ice cold of late, probably not consistent enough to make the Show as a regular, solid AHL player though

 

[Saxon Eric]

How has Tralmaks looked this season Saxon Eric?

Love Tralmaks, he needs a contract

 

[GarbageGoal]

Big Eddie T cuts it to one!!!!!!

 

[GarbageGoal]

1:26 left 2-1 Utica going to a PP

 

[GarbageGoal]

Utica EN on a 5on 3 makes it 3-1.

[UConn126]

How has Callahan looked in Prov?

I think you're selling him short....It appears him / his line-mates are playing well. Let's hope he turns out to be a productive player for Boston.

Steen has fallen back a little. Too bad Froden is injured? Serious?

 

[JoeIsAStud]

Any discussion of why mcLaughin hasn't seen the ice? Kind of surprising feels like he got closer to playing in Boston than he has in providence
