2015-16 Utica Comets

Post by Southern_Canuck »

So what does the roster expect to look like so far?

Forward:
Hunter Shinkaruk - Blair Jones - Alexandre Grenier
Dane Fox - Alex Friesen - Nicklas Jensen
Brendan Gaunce - Cole Cassels - Adam Cracknell
Mackenze Stewart - Wacey Hamilton - Carter Bancks
(Mike Zalewski, Joseph Labate, Ludwig Blomstrand)

Defence:
Andrey Pedan - Alex Biega
Ben Hutton - Taylor Fedun
Jordan Subban - Evan McEneny
(Ashton Sautner, Anton Cederholm, John Negrin)

Goalie:
Richard Bachman
Joe Cannata
Clay Witt

Pretty young on defence, and a little short of veteran AHL scoring... should be interesting.

Spud Subban was scratched last game. Is he ECHL bound?

Wed Oct 21

Rochester 2 Utica 4
Cannata 12 saves on 14 shots

Shinkaruk, (1) (Vey, Fedun) (PP)
Shinkaruk, (2) (Gaunce, Subban) (PP)
Shinkaruk, (3) (Jensen, Pedan)
Grenier, (1) (Ehrhardt, Hamilton) (EN)

Wow - Utica outshot Rochester 47-14, but still only held a one goal lead late in the game.

Vey clone
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

Shinkaruk with another 2 goals

Topper, Cassels is not a Vey clone. Vey is a lost cause prototypical tweener whereas Cassels is a potential classic bottom 6 centre who could be a 2nd line centre not to mention he has a massive chip on his shoulder and is a deadly hitter

Boeser named Freshman Player of the Week - 4 goals 2 assists
