Gignac's best comparison is Paul Byron IMO. 

 

Which isn't to say he will have a shooting streak PDO bender and get close to 20 goals in a season, but that speedster in the bottom lines is the comparison I'm making.

Gignac seems more like a H.Pinard/Gallagher, dosent he?


center, late bloomer, hard worker, creative offensively, responsible defensively, decent FO%, smallish, French-Canadian, etc.

He is not an energy player like RHP, more of a top-6 forward in Laval for the last 2 years

5-2 win.:1banana:

Laval Rocket @ Hartford Wolf Pack Friday, February 16, 2024 | TheAHL.com | The American Hockey League

 

Hat trick for Davidson & 8 shots.:clap:

Mailloux/Barron 1a

 Kidney 2a

 

 

Anderson was ill and a late scratch, Cederqvist was rumored to also be a late scratch but played through whatever bug is running

 

 

Dobes was solid all game long. He tends to push hard from the posts, has been doing it all season and tends to get the net off its moorings. It happened twice this game when the Wolfpack had scoring chances. 

 

Beyond the hat trick, Davidson had a solid game. He seems to e finding consistency. Kidney was good too. Mysak for a bunch of penalty minutes, but didn't deserve most of them. He is not a dirty player, just intense.

Baron had a rough game, turning over the puck by making soft plays/passes, he did not look good with Trudeau.

 

Norlinder got hurt and did not play after the first period.

I don't expect the Rocket to climb in the standings this weekend, but a winning streak may do that. Kaskisuo in nets today

Yes, in the highlights, Mailloux looked better than Barron, who still seems shaky play.

 

 

Jared Davidson’s hat trick gets Rocket’s road trip started right (habseyesontheprize.com)


he was -12 on December 6, he is at even “0” today. An indication that he has improved his overall defensive game, according to the Rocket play by play

A win against the best team in the AHL, if only they can stay on a winning streak

One is a lefty, one is a righty, they might be able to play together on the PP? 

 

Most teams are going 4 fwds and 1 D on the PP as it shows better results than 3 and 2.

 

I would expect one on each PP unit.

 

You have two units.  Our 8th best forward should be more offensive than the 3rd best defenceman, especially by the time the two of them are ready.

 

8fwds if both units are 4-1

3rd defenceman if one unit is 3-2 and the other is 4-1

That makes sense.
