Why is the idiot fighting a worthless piece of crap when he can;'t fight??

No kidding that was beyond stupid

 

[Bottle Rocket]

With their win tonight, Rocket's hopes are still alive.

Let's hope Syracuse's play will be strong this week as they battle both Belleville mid-week and Utica next weekend.

And then it would be do or die for us against Belleville next weekend.

Yup, that's the ideal scenario.

 

[Bottle Rocket]

And Utica lost in OT. They lost a precious point, good for us.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Anyone else noticing the AHL website seems to go down a lot in the past like 2, 3 days ?

Did Perrault get hurt on the fight? I can’t understand the French.

He said it looked like Perrault dislocated his shoulder.

 

[Rapala]

Damn pleased with Flojack's debut. Gotta love a player who creates events out of the chute.

Shoulder dislocation

Damn pleased with Flojacks debut. Gotta love a player who creates events out of the chute.

Ya he played very well for a first game in the pro, i expect he will be even better in his next game

If Syracuse manage to beat Utica once this week and Laval beat Belleville twice in regulation, Laval would make the playoffs.

Go Syracuse! Go Laval!

Time to send Struble back for that b2b IMO.

 

[montreal]

Xhekaj will need to work on his lower body strength, work on his speed and add some mass.

I wouldn't have put him on the 4th line with McKay and Bourque but he did get him a lot of ice in the 3rd.

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Except that someone needed to pay for running Dobes and no one else was stepping up. One of the plugs should have beaten up at least one Cleveland pos.

You do realize you say this same stuff about most of the Kids you evaluate.
Not that you are wrong though.

Then he does his work good, if he isn't wrong... what was your point?

Yeah, Montréal's season ends Tuesday, so hopefully they send Struble down for that back-to-back. They can use a D like him. He'll get 2 days off to rest, too.

that's the case for 90% of kids going from the CHL to AHL. But with Xhekaj it's not like Kidney, Farrell, Mysak, etc.. he's so tall but his lower body looks too lean but he 100% plays a power game so I'm not concerned just that when he does he's going to be even more of a beast.

 

[montreal]

I know it's in the vid I posted but I forget when it happened but Hab fans would have went nuts there if Reinbacher scored on that play as it would also have been Xhekaj's 1st point and would have been a sick goal.

Could Arber be sent down since he played in the A part of the season?

Arber is down till next season

 

[Essenege]

Is the tie breaker regulation wins? If so, Laval basically in the playoffs already…nice coincidence that those last 2 games are against B sens

 

[schwang26]

He said it looked like Perrault dislocated his shoulder.

That was dumb on his part but honestly, that’s no great loss. If Gignac and Stephens are Bach, Perrault would’ve been scratched anyway.

 

[Sam de Mtl]

Right. I forgot about that.
