It would have been nice to get Hrabarenka some looks this season as opposed to Helgeson. We know what Helgeson brings to the table. If Cory is shutdown for the year and I'm the GM, I'm getting some of these guys looks in the last twelve games, especially Hrabarenka or Mozik. Especially with how Severson and Merrill have been playing. Would be nice to get a right handed shooter too. Warsofsky doesn't seem like much. I have to say that I'm truly not impressed and he should be in the minors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thefiestygoat Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 A bit busy lately so I only have last weeks AHL updates over at AATJ (formerly ILWT). Here's last night's action though: AHL 3/22 Albany defeated Springfield 4-1. Burlon, Johnson, O'Brien, and Lorito had the goals. Thompson and O'Neill had 2 assists each followed by Hrabarenka, Hughes, Novak, and McPherson with 1 each. Lorito had 4 shots as the Devils outshot the Falcons 31-18. Danis made 17 saves. Albany went 0/1 on the PP and 3/3 on the PK. Here is the gamesheet. Line Up: Lorito-O'Neill-Thompson Pietila-O'Brien-Novak Leblond-Pelley-Thomson Hughes-Johnson Gragnani-Scarlett Geiger-Hrabarenka Burlon-McPherson Faust Notes: -- Albany signed F Gunnar Hughes to a try-out. The 23 year old had 11 goals and 9 assists in 58 games with Adirondack as a rookie. Prior to this season he spent 4 years at St. Lawrence University where he had 28 goals and 45 assists in 143 games. Albany is a bit short staffed right now due to injuries and call ups. -- Current injury situation: Blake Coleman (left shoulder), Dan Kelly (lower body), Graham Black (sinus infection) and Chris McKelvie (upper body). Ryan Kujawinski and Nick Lappin were both injured in Sunday's game. -- Jim O'Brien has 6 goals and 6 assists over his last 7 games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DevilMinder Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Quote The plan is for Devils prospect Pavel Zacha to also join Albany for the playoffs. Zacha, the sixth overall pick in the 2015 NHL entry draft, just wrapped up his junior season with Sarnia of the Ontario Hockey League. Hynes said the Devils considered bringing Zacha to Newark for the end of the season, but ultimately decided it was best for him to join Albany for the playoffs. The AHL postseason begin later this month. Albany has clinched a playoff spot. http://fireandice.northjersey.com/fire-ice-1.174987/sislo-zacha-to-join-albany-for-playoffs-1.1540521 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Anyone know anything about Andy Vasquez Nothing except he was the Record's beat reporter for the Nets. My guess is that he'll be an interim guy. Hopefully there's someone that's a little more well versed in the sport come close to draft time, and who isn't just writing down quotes.

Chimaira_Devil_#9 Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 (edited) So the A Devs start their Calder Cup push tonight. They are playing the Utica Comets in the first round. Quote ALBANY, NY – Finding similarities between the Albany Devils and the Utica Comets isn’t hard to accomplish. Not only do they share real estate in upstate New York, but they’ve been neighbors in the North Division standings for the majority of the season. Both teams are well coached, structurally sound and have proven their roster depth at different times this season. Albany is making its second playoff appearance in the last three seasons and Utica returns to the postseason after reaching the Calder Cup Final a year ago. The Devils 6-0-2-0 record against the Comets this season is a bit misleading. Four of their eight meetings ended in overtime and five were one-goal games. “If you really look at it every game has been tight,” said Head Coach Rick Kowalsky. “They’ve had a lot of injuries, call ups this year as well. We’ve seen all kinds of different lineups from them. Every game we’ve played against them the last couple of years has been tight, has been intense. Both teams play with structure and are solid defensively. I think that all goes out the window. If anything we should have confidence in our game, but for the most part, they are a good hockey team and well coached. It’s going to be a battle. Here is the schedule: 22 Fri Utica 7:00 PM 23 Sat Utica 5:00 PM 26 Tue at Utica 7:00 PM 28* Thu at Utica 7:00 PM 30* Sat Utica 5:00 PM Edited April 22, 2016 by Chimaira_Devil_#9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
