carpandean Posted May 3, 2011 Report Share Posted May 3, 2011 Kassian is wearing #19. Was that the number he wore in Jrs? Between the OHL, World Juniors, and the prospects game, he's worn 9, 14, and 19. I suspect that he likes 9, whether it's actually 9 or 19. Those two are likely the most popular numbers for forwards, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildcat48 Posted May 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2011 AHL doesn't keep track of TOI... At least not as a public stat. As for Kassian, he's been average. No real scoring chances, but that's not unsual. He has to get adjusted to the pro game and that will take some time. Luke Adam went through the same thing.

All this talk of him not cutting it in the NHL....I just hope we give him one more chance like we did Gerbe. Not saying that it's impossible that he could make the jump, but the "tearing it up in the AHL" carries less weight every year that he spends in the AHL, not more. Nowadays, NHL teams want their prospects to get more of the ice time, so "veteran" AHLers are playing in a younger, less experienced league, making it easier them to figure out how to do well. A first or second year AHLer tearing it up means a lot more than a guy who has been there for four+ years doing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildcat48 Posted May 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2011 With back against the wall the Pirates stay positive Published on: 5th May, 2011 by Chris Roy It was lightened mood as the Pirates took to the ice for their later than normal practice at the Cumberland County Civic Center in preparation for Game 6 on Friday night. That doesnt mean the Pirates are taking the Binghamton Senators lightly has they still hold a 3-2 lead in the best-of-seven series. Link>>> There is some Bingo news in there too...

You do realize Mark Mancari has been an AHL regular for SIX FREAKIN YEARS. Nathan Gerbe spent 2 half seasons in the "A". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted May 7, 2011 Report Share Posted May 7, 2011 Well I just watched the Pirates lay a goose egg at home in game 6, 3-0 loss to the Sens. Oh well, it looked familiar. None of our Sabre call-downs did much of anything, including Mancari and Enroth. First time at the 4 C's. Unusual barn, gorgeous city. PTR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildcat48 Posted May 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2011 Pirates bounced out of the playoffs Published on: 6th May, 2011 by Chris Roy Portland, ME – Binghamton Senators head coach Kurt Kleinendorst wasn’t sure how goalie Robin Lehner would responded after a four-goal shellacking in Game 5 of the Atlantic Division Finals. He liked what he saw in Game 6. Lehner made 36 saves for his first career playoff shutout as the Senators blanked the Portland Pirates, 3-0, before 2,713 at the Cumberland County Civic Center on Friday night to win the best-of-seven Calder Cup series, 4-2.

tom webster Posted May 7, 2011 Report Share Posted May 7, 2011 Chris, I've been meaning to ask about attendance figures. Is the organization disappointed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted May 7, 2011 Report Share Posted May 7, 2011 It looked like over 2,000 last night and that building only holds 4,000. Plus there was a Sea Dog baseball game going on across town. Better than the 800 or so in Manchester to see a game 7. Portland is one of America's great small cities. I can totally see young players thanking their stars for the chance to play there as opposed to Rochester. There are so many awesome clubs and restaurants within blocks of CCCC. One thing I noticed is a big Sabres logo at center ice. Is that something Team Pegula insisted on? Seems like they are very big on reinforcing the Sabres brand PTR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
