Moose 2021 Season

[surixon]

There are very few players on this team that can handle a pass.

It's so bad.

 

[Atoyot]

Samberg and Kovacevic had a good first period. Activating well while not being too risky, though Samberg did get caught once. Heinola also looking fine. He's made multiple strong stretch passes that were mishandled and given up immediately. Samberg set up McKenzie with a great chance first minute in and McKenzie whiffed on it.

Also Moose totaled 1 shot in the first period.

lol 3D PP isn't a terrible idea given how bad the F depth is and giving the PP TOI to prospects... but it's now allowed 2 GA lol

 

[Atoyot]

Moose's 3D PP unit gets scored on again. Not officially a shorthanded goal against but may as well have been.

Kovacevic takes a lot of penalties.

I don't understand why they would go 1D on PP1 and 3D on PP2. Just make it 2 and 2 if you want all of them to get PP time. Having 3 of them play powerplays in a configuration they'll never see again seems like poor development. They look like they don't know where they're supposed to be, especially when it gets back to the defensive zone.

 

[Atoyot]

5 minutes into the 2nd period.

Shots are 15-1.

Score is 2-0.

 

[WolfHouse]

He's a lefty. The only RH prospect to be excited about at this point is Simon Lundmark. Though I think Kovacevic will make it to the show, but not much beyond replacement level.

Ugh - got that mixed up - thought Kova and Gawanke were the lefties... well that's a bit of a downer then - Mo, Samberg, Stanley, Heinola should have our left side locked down for the foreseeable future...

I think my Nogier prediction stands once again.

 

[Atoyot]

Refs just missed a nut shot to Gawanke that led to a 2 on 1.

Oh I agree.

 

[surixon]

What was Seuss doing leaving the ice there. Completely wrecked the break in.

 

[garret9]

With 3 PPs the shots are 0-2, in favour of the short handed Laval.

 

[WolfHouse]

I’d like to thank you guys for saving me from actually watching a moose game this year

 

[Atoyot]

Whelp. That was something resembling hockey. Onwards and...onwards.

If Vincent is the heir apparent, I take back all my Fire Maurice comments.

 

[Mortimer Snerd]

Did anyone ever expect that Gawanke would look NHL ready? He's a fifth round pick

All three of those guys - Gawanke, Chisholm, Kovacevic are likely Nogier level. Serviceable for a few games if you're desperate.

Buff and Enstrom were both 8th rd picks. So what? It isn't unusual for good D men to come from later in the draft. They have all already exceeded Nogier level.

If I was to rank all of them at the same age and point in their career while I'd have some in the same tier I would probably rank Nogier the lowest. He got a cup of tea due to extreme circumstances of injuries and lack of depth, not really due to earning it.

I'd go:
Chisholm >>> Kovacevic > Gawanke > Nogier

I agree. I was higher on Kovacevic earlier, but watching several full games this season I can see he has some tools but really struggles to process the game.

In college he looked like he'd be Poolman 2.0 but ya he's not quite putting it together in the AHL

Alex Galchenyuk sent down to the Marlies. He might suit up and play against the Moose on Monday

Do the Moose even have 2 full lines of legitimate prospects or pro hockey players?
1 shot on goal in 1st period over, and guys can't even handle top-prospects stretch passes is just, well, bad.
Poor coach Pascal! Not much there to work with sounds like.

Let’s be happy that our prospects are getting some reps at least.

 

[jetsv2]

Is Dano hurt, I dont remember seeing anything said about him at all this season, but I would expect he would play with the lack of forward depth on the moose.

 

[kylbaz]

Sounds like it's time to fire Vincent and hire, oh I don't know, Eric Dubois, say for an eight year contract.

100% this ^

Heinola, Samberg, Perfetti, and Chisholm (to a lesser degree) are all piling up minutes now and that is a pretty big deal.

Like Mau says, how else would Samberg ever learn the systems otherwise
