Brawndo Posted October 14, 2022 Report Share Posted October 14, 2022 The good thing is the Amerks have a couple more practices prior to Opening Night on Friday against the Toronto Marlies and Appert and his staff plan on going over ample video to try and help teach the newcomers just what it will take to be in this league before puck drop. Although, we all know that will take a little time when we’ve had the prime examples of forwards JJ Peterka and Jack Quinn the last two seasons. “We're going to have to do a lot of teaching with these with young players early, just like we did with our young forwards the last two years.” Appert then finished with, “I've said it before. Everybody looks at the end product of Quinn and Peterka in the American League last year, but they don't remember the adversity they faced a long way and I keep reminding these young guys of that because there's going to be a lot of adversity before there's success.” If we know anything from the last two years in the Flower City, the benefits from a little patience with the young prospects will eventually garner much reward. So, patience is key and there’s a lot to look forward going into the Amerks 2022-23 campaign if the past two seasons I 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn’t really matter to me, but in the past the 10-20 posts “in game” just end up in the season long thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taro T Posted October 14, 2022 Report Share Posted October 14, 2022 Hope UPL is up to facing a lot of shots. That D will help the offense generate shots but will also likely give up a ton of shots too & unfortunately a lot will likely be high danger. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarthEbriate Posted October 18, 2022 Report Share Posted October 18, 2022 Good Pekar is back to health and ready to battle for playing time. Bjork adds a solid, speedy vet. Maybe get one in for Jobst, but when healthy, this lineup has some pretty nice depth at forward. (Yes, there's a youngster on each line who'll need quite a bit of seasoning and strength.) Game 1 lineup: Rosen - Malone - Mersch Murray - Kozak - Weissbach Rousek - Biro - Kulich Cederqvist - Jobst - Kisakov Bjork, Pekar, Warren, Olischefski Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudacek Posted October 18, 2022 Report Share Posted October 18, 2022 I only watched the first game, but the player that caught my eye was Kisakov. Language+age+size should give him the steepest learning curve, but the dude is sneaky, not afraid, and he makes plays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he just needed a stable environment and not being shuttled league to league. If he can emerge as a top prospect, he and Savoie could force KA to make some really hard decisions next off-season. Long way to go, but what a nice problem to have. It wasn’t that long ago we couldn’t even field a legit NHL team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amerks8796 Posted October 25, 2022 Report Share Posted October 25, 2022 No official announcement from the team, but the AHL transaction page has Brandon Davidson being signed. Hopefully he’s more of a permanent replacement for Pilut, and I can’t see him coming back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think they’ll have a choice. Carrying 8 D is pretty common. They won’t waive Pilut or Fitzgerald. I think they’d waive Sheahan first.

Huckleberry Posted October 26, 2022 Report Share Posted October 26, 2022 I think Kulich being in the AHL this year, will put him ahead of Savoie and Östlund when it comes to maturing to an NHL game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's in his 3rd year & played 57 total. So, pretty sure his 13th game after today makes him waiver eligible, not his 3rd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
