AHL: WBS Penguins Thread: featuring Val Puus

[Jacob]

Judging by his points to PIM ratio he plays exactly like how you’d expect.

 

[Pens x]

Missed this lol

PENGUINS SIGN FORWARD SHAW BOOMHOWER

I can’t wait until people here pencil him in their starting lineups in the top 9 next to Poulin and DOC.

GOAT name, he should play on Sids line

AHL playoff rules have changed and 23 teams make it. All the Bay Pens have to do is finish top 6 out of 8. Feel like I wasn't really committed to the idea of them as a good/playoff team but being 6th out of 8 seems likely enough if there's no disasters.

 

[wheelz87]

JFC just let everyone in at that point

 

[Tasty Biscuits]

Yeah that's insane.

 

[Jacob]

I think that’s good. It’s a development league after all and regular season success hinges largely on the health of the NHL team.

What in the blue f*** is that horse shit?

WBS signed Legare's old teammate - Christopher Merisier-Ortiz (2 years). I thought he would get drafted this year as a double over-ager since it was a meh draft class and Moser got picked freaking 61st overall.

 

[CheckingLineCenter]

EP ranked him 64th overall in the draft I think. @Dangles78

 

[Your Boy Troy]

He could have opted to go back to the Q as an overager, but chose to go pro instead. He must have a lot of confidence. I’m liking the amount of young depth being signed to AHL contracts. I know the Marlies/Leafs have had recent success with that approach. It helps when you can offer premium dough.

Guys like Sheary, Rowney & Lovejoy went from AHL deals to NHL careers.

And won Stanley Cups.

So I was just doodling this morning and have roughly this line-up for WBS:

Legare-Chaput-Poulin
Puustinen-Hallander-Simon
Almeida-Bellerive-Bjorkqvist
DOC-Gruden-Angello
Robert-Drozg

Merisier-Ortiz-Almari
Reilly-Maniscalco
Lee-Bigras
Fedun

Lindberg
D'Orio
Napier

Am I missing anybody?

There's a few forwards Devane (enforcer), Olson (returning depth) along with Boomhower and Houde who will probably be in Wheeling. I'd imagine Riikola is waived at some point and goes unclaimed and plays in WBS or just asks for his contract to be terminated.

Thank you. I was doing this by memory.

As things stand, POJ will be in WBS as well.

OK. But who are you counting as the defensemen in Pittsburgh this year?
