[Devils Pride 26]

Has anybody seen how Tedenby has looked so far in Albany?

Getting to Saturday's action a bit late:

Albany lost to Wilkes-Barre/Scranton 5-2. Scoring for the Devils was Palmieri (4) (Zalewski) and Urbom (2) (Palmieri and Tedenby). Frazee stopped 16 of 20 shots. Albany is playing with 5 defenseman with Leach and Corrente injured, Harrold in NJ, and Young injured in Kalamazoo. Here is the gamesheet.

Their next game is Friday against Hamilton at 7:30.

Kalamazoo defeated Toledo 4-0: Young (DNP - Medical), Haczyk (DNP - I'm assuming medical), and Clermont (DNP).

Elmira lost to Chicago 2-1: Pielmeier (DNP).

Also, In Lou We Trust did a fantastic job breaking down AHL goalies with their even strength save percentage estimates. A ton of great info in there so I suggest checking it out.

Scoring for the Devils was Zalewski (10) (PP, Harrold and Wiseman), Wiseman (5) (Zalewski and Urbom), Perkovich (7) (PP, Zalewski and Harrold), and Palmieri (5) (EN, Sestito and Mills). Kinkaid stopped 26 of 28 shots. Wiseman and Gelinas were named 1st and 3rd stars respectively. Corrente returned to the line up for the 1st time since 12/27 which was part of a 3 game stretch he played in (12/21-12/27) after getting hurt initially on 11/11. Here is the gamesheet. Highlights below:


Their next game is Saturday against Syracuse at 7:30.

Pielmeier stopped 37 of 38 shots earning 2nd star. Zharkov earned 1st star. Ex-Devil Mark Fraser served as an alternate captain for Syracuse and was a +1 with 4 shots and 2 penalty minutes. Here is the gamesheet. I'll edit in the highlights if they are posted.

Their next game is Sunday against Providence at 4:05.

Is much known about Pielmeier? I know his stats don't look great, but I did not realize that he's so young. I wonder what the chances are of him making it. I guess more starts in the AHL will tell us.

This is just my speculation but I feel like the Devils may not tender Pielmeier a contract after this year. They'll still have Frazee and Kinkaid in Albany or one of them backing up in NJ. They'll also have Clermont in the organization who would be stuck back in the ECHL if Frazee and Kinkaid are in Albany. I'm going to guess that Wedgewood turns pro so who knows where they fit him in but I think he'd move ahead of Clermont on the depth chart and they'd want him in Albany. It looks like too much of a full house to bring Pielmeier back.

Albany defeated Providence 3-1 to complete a sweep of all 3 weekend games. Scoring for the Devils was Veilleux (11) (PP, Tedenby and Palmieri), Sestito (5), and Zharkov (8) (EN, Mills).

Kalamazoo defeated Gwinnett 4-3 in a SO: Young (E, 1 Shot), Haczyk (Assist, +1, 2 Shots), and Clermont (DNP).

Albany Notes:

Defenseman Matt Corrente, out since Dec. 27 because of hamstring injury, returned to the lineup, although Kowalsky kept him out of the middle game of the trip against Syracuse.

Nathan Perkovich, who had been out since Jan. 18 because of an upper-body injury, made his return a week ago Saturday at Wilkes-Barre/Scranton, although he was kept out of Sunday’s game in Providence.

Still sidelined are defensemen Jay Leach (lower body; out since Dec. 16) and forwards Matt Anderson (upper body; Jan. 16), Stephen Gionta (ankle’; Jan. 28) and J.S. Berube (upper body; Jan. 21).

Of those players, Berube is the only one likely to return soon. Kowalsky said Berube is near 100 percent healthy but will need to skate more before he sees game action.

Kalamazoo defeated Cincinnati 4-3: Young (Assist, +3, 2 PIM - Cross-Checking), Haczyk (+1, 2 Shots), and Clermont (DNP).

Young: 29 GP 1 G 6 A 7 Pts +4 55 PIM 3.85 SH%
Haczyk: 46 GP 11 G 5 A 16 Pts +6 8 PIM 9.40 SH%
Clermont: 18 GP 8-7-1-0 3.46 GAA .897 SV%

Elmira defeated Wheeling 3-2 in OT: Pielmeier (28 Saves on 30 Shots, 2nd Star).

Pielmeier: 22 GP 10-7-1-2 2.91 GAA .909 SV%

Who is Joe Whitney and why isn't anyone talking about him? He leads the team in points and he's a RW. Why hase't he gotten called up yet but we still see Palmeiri? Different roles I guess?

Albany defeated Binghamton 4-2. They have now won 5 of their past 6.

Their next game is Monday against Bridgeport at 1:00.

Kalamazoo lost to Chicago 4-3: Young (Goal, +1, 2 Shots - 3rd Star), Haczyk (-2, 1 Shot), and Clermont (19 Saves on 23 Shots).

Harry Young is regarded as a defensive defenseman destined to be a career minor leaguer but he has put together some point production lately. Over his last 4 games he has 2 goals and 2 assists. Good for him.

Albany signed Joe Whitney as an undrafted college free agent out of Boston College over the summer. The biggest obstacle for him to overcome is his size, listed on the AHL website as 5'6 170 lbs. Despite this he has been producing a solid rookie year in the AHL.

Season: 48 GP 12 G 17 A 29 Pts -2 22 PIM 10.17 SH% 2.46 S/G

Obviously because of size and experience, the NJ Devils would rather have Palmieri up for a 4th line role.

Man, Zharkov's got some speed. It's nice to see Tedenby getting some decent assists in Albany. I guess it really is best for him to be down there for a while.

Thanks. I didn't realize he was so small.

Still. Looks promising.

Teddy with a goal and an assist and 8 SOG, good to know he is getting back his confidence. Would love to see the highlights.
