GHT120 Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 Nikita Scherbak apparently took a skate to the face ... fair warning, the below link goes to the post his his Twitter account and the photo is gruesome ... I am guessing the "after" photo is one he took in the mirror, as it is backwards https://twitter.com/nikscherbak/status/1381288289295032325 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bbp Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 Zachary Fucale is playing well in the AHL for Hershey... 6-2-0 record with a 1.75GAA and a 0.932 SV% Anyone think that he might get his first crack at the NHL with Washington? Samsanov rocking a dreadful 2.97GAA + 0.894SV% and their other guy V.V. has only been okay with a 2.60 and .913%. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also have Craig Anderson on the taxi squad to use in a pinch and the Siegenthaler trade yesterday frees up a bit of money to perhaps try to add another goalie now that they know Lundqvist won't be back. They also have Pheonix Copley ahead of Fucale in the minors and he has NHL experience. They like Fucale - they just gave him a two-year extension but they like him as a fourth-stringer, not a viable NHL option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes... but Anderson was god awful in his showings this year and to be fair quite bad the past number seasons. Plus Copley has been out played by Fucale. However I agree that the Siegenthaler trade likely is to make room for a real goalie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trizzak Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Very recent "where are they now?" but it's a real shame Noah Juulsen didn't make it through waivers earlier this year. He played sparsely and poorly in Florida, then was out injured for almost a month, got a 5 game conditioning stint in the AHL, and is now back in Florida as their 9th D and probably won't play again. 46 games played in 3 seasons. Getting claimed might have been the worst thing for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, I doubt that a #9 in FLA is good enough to be a meaningful contributor even to the Habs’ hapless defence corps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the doctors clear him, I would bring him back to Laval on an AHL contract Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomh009 Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 Matthew Peca was playing for the Belleville Jr Sens against the Rocket this week: no points in three losses for the Sens. Peca has 3g+2a in 11 AHL games this year, and 0g+1a in five NHL games. Bergevin still has a seventh-round pick for this year's draft from the Peca trade.

I sure hope he will be ok, the guy had a huge heart. He played at big man's game weighing 180 lbs, that doesn't usually translate to a long NHL career.
