Binghamton Devils Fall Short In OT To LV Phantoms - All About The Jersey

According to advanced metrics, Hogberg is off to the best start of the three D prospects at LHV:
CF 54.06%, CFrel +3.08, SCF 59.68%, SCFrel +11.60, HDCF 61.90%, HDCFrel +10.62

Not surprising, while Wylie and Zamula played in the CHL last year, Hogberg has 200 SHL games under his belt, so there was little or no jump in competition for him. Figure he's the top callup candidate if there's a serious injury.

Given that Prosser and Pouliot were brought up when Covid happened I highly doubt any of Hogberg, Zamula, Wylie, and so on are looked at.

The veterans were brought up for two reasons, they have NHL experience and Fletcher didn't care if they missed PT sitting on the bench.
They want the kids to play so they can develop and it allows Fletcher to gauge their progress.

I have absolutely no issue with Wylie, Hogberg and Zamula playing on the Phantoms until they get acclimatised to the professional game.

I'll have a major issue if near the end of the season one of the three is excelling and hasn't replaced Hagg or Braun as the 6th D.

Be prepared to have issues then....

We're flyers fans. We were born ready to be infuriated.

What is a stumping block?

What is a stumping block?

I'm thinking it's a thing that old time politicians used to stand on to talk to a crowd.

Similar to the idea of getting "on a soapbox."

Thanks for your response, aj. I do think, though, that the writer meant "stumbling block" given the context. I was being a bit facetious in my question.

Yeah, I didn't actually click on the article so I didn't catch that until after. I might have made that answer up anyway. But SB nation's hockey coverage is top notch, and well run from the very top, so what was written must be what was meant.

 

[Curufinwe]

Sanheim played a 76 AHL season before making the NHL at the start of his second pro year under Hextall. Myers played two 50 game AHL seasons before finally getting called up by Fletcher near the end of his second pro year.

Zamula et al will be lucky to play 36 AHL games in this shortened season.

I'm with you on your spot definition and intuition regarding stumping. This writer just needed a good proofreader.

McIntyre playing like ass-crack today

Yup i'm watching the game and this is my exact thought . McIntyre has been really good so far this year but it is not his day today .

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

5th goal of the year.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

8th goal of the year. Has an assist in this game too.

 

[TB87]

Pouliot’s gaps when defending the rush are more permissive than Gustafsson’s & Hagg’s. Dude is pretty bad. Ha the hockey sense of a box of rocks.
