Not a lit of Amerks interested in playing D. Both up front and on the back end. 

I really thought Borgen was solid all night. Paetsch was in the lineup though and his best hockey years are waaaay behind him. 

I missed Porter and his back check last night. 

I really missed Dalton Smith last night though. His stats(besides PIM of course) don’t suggest that he is bringing a lot but that dude brings so much fire to the ice.

Bump in the road. Back to back vs. Hartford at home Friday/Saturday.

No one in Roch calls it Roch. Probably because it's too close to crotch. Also, you can use the much cooler sounding ROC. 

I've heard a few people from the area call it crotchfester. I've been there a few times though and my fun bits are still in presentable condition. Guess it's a good thing I wore pants on my visits.

Just because you don't know anyone who calls it Roch... I knew plenty who did.

Crotchfester is absolutely a nickname.

We used to call it Rocha cha cha when I was briefly at Geneseo State.

Yeah and Crapchester, the 585, the R O C but never Roch. The first time I heard it was Rob Ray, then Andrew Peters so I figured it was a weird Canadian thing but to hear people around hear using it blows my mind. Seems completely foreign.

People are screaming for a callup from the Amerks, but there really isn’t anyone on the current roster who is NHL-ready. 

Maybe Nylander will play better in the NHL than he does in the AHL, which in a different lifetime, seemed to me to be how Pomminstein was. 

Botterill's strategy is definitely to leave these guys in Rochester if at all possible, particularly the forwards. We don't have a single healthy scratch forward on the roster right now. 

Beaulieu and Hunwick scratched on D (for a 22 man roster rather than 23), then Pominville, Nelson, and Wilson on IR.

Slow sports night I suppose, so Fox Sports Ohio is televising the Amerks-Monsters game. I stumbled upon it while scrolling through the guide. I honestly thought they were wearing ugly Christmas sweaters ? The color schemes are wayyyy too similar. This is brutal to watch.
