dlbalr Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 With the Bulldogs (26-35-1-5) now mathematically eliminated from the playoffs (although with max points they're in theory still alive, remaining head-to-head matchups from other teams do eliminate them) they now set their sights on 29th place to avoid finishing last in the AHL for the first time in franchise history. Tonight, they travel to San Antonio to take on the Rampage (29-31-2-6), a team that like Hamilton, is playing all sorts of newcomers. Tonight should mark Danny Kristo's debut. Given the whack of newcomers for both sides recently, these lines are almost certainly to be wrong. Potential AHL debuts are italicized. Projected Hamilton Lines: Hudon - Tenute - Holland Bournival - Nokelainen - Leblanc Archambault - Belzile - Kristo Hagel - Stortini - Quailer Beaulieu - Pateryn St. Denis - DeSantis Tinordi - Ellis Mayer Projected San Antonio Lines: Barlow - Hamill - Rallo Combs - Timmins - Rheault Wilson - Gomes - McFarland Deveaux - Beauvillier - Ortmeyer Petrovic - Robak Yonkman - Racine Miskovic - LeeGrumet-MorrisPuck drop is at 8:30 PM, Funny820 as always will have the play-by-play; click the banner below to listen.

dlbalr Posted April 5, 2013 Author Share Posted April 5, 2013 Kristo will play on an all-rookie line with Olivier Archambault and Alex Beizile. As if they're breaking up the one line that had consistently been producing... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dlbalr Posted April 6, 2013 Author Share Posted April 6, 2013 The good news? Hamilton leads 2-0 after 1, goals by Nokelainen and Holland. The bad news? Mayer is once again in net. What incriminating photos does he have? The lines have been updated in the first post with what's being used tonight, Brady Vail is a healthy scratch.

miklin Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 I can only surmise Tokarski must be nursing an injury. On the other hand, if Dustin is hurt, he wouldn't likely be on the bench Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlbalr Posted April 6, 2013 Author Share Posted April 6, 2013 I can only surmise Tokarski must be nursing an injury. On the other hand, if Dustin is hurt, he wouldn't likely be on the bench Even when he's for sure healthy Mayer seems to get half the starts. It can't be an injury, otherwise Gervais-Chouinard would dress as the backup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miklin Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 geeze=tied at 2 early in the second. Beaulieu gets caught pinching and Mayer waves at one on a screen. San Antonio seem to be head hunting tonight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miklin Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Andre Deveaux cheap shots Hudon. Gets 3 minors and a game. (you see what I mean re head hunting-seem to be going after the Jr call ups) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(you see what I mean re head hunting-seem to be going after the Jr call ups) Too bad the Bulldogs did nothing with it. It's weird regarding the head hunting, it's not as if the Rampage don't have newcomers either - they have two guys making their AHL debuts.

miklin Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 (edited) Beaulieu gets a shorty. Dogs win 4-2. Re the head hunting. Deveaux has been plain mean since his days with the Marlies. Stortini, in comparison, could be nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize -re Holland-IMO streaky-maybe one more year in the AHL ps-when Deveaux got the 3 minors, Tinordi got a penalty for striking Deveaux' hands with his face-lol and what else is sad-the Dogs do well but playing in a different time zone, will miss coverage in the print version of the Hamilton Spectator Edited April 6, 2013 by miklin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlbalr Posted April 6, 2013 Author Share Posted April 6, 2013 How is Holland doing? NHL material? Brutal start to the year, much better lately (the front line - until tonight - of him, Belzile, and Tenute have been on fire in the past few weeks). He has a long way to go to be NHL ready though. Beaulieu gets a shorty. Dogs win 4-2 You forgot the most important thing of all... http://theahl.com/stats/game-summary.php?game_id=1010894 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miklin Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 LOL-btw sounds like ex Dog Brendan Nash was playing, how could I put it, a little bit on the overly agressive side? Still mad about getting traded??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
