NuxFan09 Posted March 2, 2013 Author Share Posted March 2, 2013 Matt Climie is in net for the Wolves and it's actually Jack Campbell in net for the Stars, not Nihlstorp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NuxFan09 Posted March 2, 2013 Author Share Posted March 2, 2013 Just heard on the radio that Rodin was out for two weeks after getting "minor surgery". No details about what the surgery was for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NuxFan09 Posted March 2, 2013 Author Share Posted March 2, 2013 Scores!! Adam Polasek blasted one in after a pass by Longpre deflected off Davies' skate right to him. Good for him to score after being a healthy scratch for the last three games. 1-0 Wolves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NuxFan09 Posted March 2, 2013 Author Share Posted March 2, 2013 Fight! Adam Polasek is making his bid for the Gordie Howe hat trick by picking a fight with Francis Walthier after Walthier sent Stefan Schneider down to the ice with a dirty hit. Sounds like it was a bit of a draw. Good to see Polasek step in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NuxFan09 Posted March 2, 2013 Author Share Posted March 2, 2013 Scores!! Archibald bumps the slump, as he took a chip pass off the glass from Davies, flew into the zone and buried it! 2-0 Wolves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeNiro Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 Good to see Pinizzotto get in right away. His conditioning stint has officially started. Hopefully he can be up with the big club sooner than later. Good to see Rodin back in the lineup, as well as Polasek. Sweatt continues his tear with an assist.

NuxFan09 Posted March 2, 2013 Author Share Posted March 2, 2013 Can't believe I didn't mention this earlier, but Pinizzotto is in the lineup! He's playing with Rodin and Schneider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NuxFan09 Posted March 2, 2013 Author Share Posted March 2, 2013 The Wolves are icing a shorthanded lineup tonight, dressing only 11 forwards and the usual 6 defensemen. Lines: Sweatt - Longpre - Haydar Archibald - Friesen - Davies Pinizzotto - Schneider - Rodin DiDiomete and Miller are being subbed in here and there. Joslin - Andersson Matheson - Connauton Vandermeer - Polasek Climie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NuxFan09 Posted March 2, 2013 Author Share Posted March 2, 2013 Stars are controlling the play here in the 2nd period. The Wolves seem to do this on a regular basis. They'll play extremely well for one period and the momentum will completely swing the next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NuxFan09 Posted March 2, 2013 Author Share Posted March 2, 2013 A couple defense breakdowns here by the Wolves, and now a fight. This time it's Longpre who took exception to a bad elbow to the face of his defenseman Mark Matheson and challenged Stars defenseman Hubert Labrie.

NuxFan09 Posted March 2, 2013 Author Share Posted March 2, 2013 The commentators just took another look at the hit and it actually appears like it was a solid shoulder check on Matheson, not a vicious elbow like they originally thought. No penalties on the play, except the fighting majors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Millerdraft Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 I'm trying to figure it all out. AGAIN, the Wolves commentators have proved quite unhelpful. They quickly run through the list of scratches and don't bother to indicate who are healthy scratches and who are injured and what those injuries are. Never any details with these guys. On top of that, the Wolves website sucks. No game story at all and no mention of Pinizzotto getting back in the lineup. I found that out by looking at the boxscore on the AHL website. Pretty shoddy for such a storied AHL franchise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
