Derp... Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 Shinky should get a taste this year in the NHL, either after the deadline or when a top 6 guy gets hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaudette Celly Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 For the most part it has been Vey. Also don't forget 4 of Hunter's 9 goals have come on the PP and the first unit most of the time includes Shink, Vey, Grenier, Gaunce and Fedun. Gaunce on the point?

When I watched Pedan pre season he looked like a deer in the headlight is there true hope for this guy ? I value your comments Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UticaHockey Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 Gaunce on the point?Usually Vey or Shink on the point but the Comets have a lot of movement on their PP with the 4 forwards on the ice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I watched Pedan pre season he looked like a deer in the headlight is there true hope for this guy ? I value your commentsOn the power play Vey has looked good. During 5 on 5 not so much. He just can't win a puck battle to save his life.As far as Pedan is concerned I agree that in the preseason game I watch he did look a bit like a deer in the headlights. Pedan is a better prospect than he appeared in that one preseason game. A very good skater with a heavy shot and a long reach that he makes good use of. He also makes a good first pass. Where he still needs to improve is positional awareness and gets caught out of position at times but has improved tremendously since he first arrived in Utica last year.

It struck me he has a high panick threshold. I saw the same in Clendening no pressure ... he could make a play...under pressure he coughed it up ( unlike say Hutton and Tanev ) Some how they have to make a believer of Pedan IMO at the NHL level. No love from Greene for Mackenzie Stewart ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hairy Kneel Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Teams are playing us real chippy this year and getting away with a lot of stick work, just a matter of time before we need a call up. I'd prefer a bigger body like Gaunce but if Prust comes back I think we can bring up Shink. He's been great. The NHL stands for the National Hack'n'whack League so he'll get his chance.

ShakyWalton Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 My ass.

Edlerberry Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Horvat's not scoring this season and he's getting ripped defensively. He's not going to ever be our first line center let alone next year. Keep him as a defensive checker. If we somehow nab Lucic, play him with the twins. If we don't, play Sutter with the twins and promote McCann. The kids on pace for 40 points in his rookie year, that's good enough for 2nd line center on most thin teams these days. Sedin - Sedin - SutterBaertschi - McCann - BurrowsShinkaruk - Horvat - HansenGaunce - Prust(?) - Virtanen That's a dirt-cheap lineup as well and with 20M in cap space we could probably afford to splurge and get ourselves a top-6 scorer, or even better, a top-4 defenceman.another incomplete lineup and oh because horvat's gripping his stick in his 20 year old season you've written him off exclusively as a checking center. you are consistent i'll give you that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terrible.dee Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 I think it's Vey? I see vey in a lot of Shinkaruks goals The Vey will return,Woe be it to ye non-believers..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ice orca Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 The Vey will return,Woe be it to ye non-believers.....Vey has always been a good AHL player and should stay there. The only way he makes his heralded return is if half our forwards drop like flies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robongo Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Comets have a new series this year called Comets Face-Off. Hunter Shinkaruk was a guest last week and had a solid interview:http://www.cnyhomepage.com/sports/comets-face-off-hunter-shinkarukHis video is the second one.

Alflives Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Drouin has already made an impact in the NHL.I like Drouin, or at least I like his potential. I'm wondering if he was drafted lower, if he would be in the AHL? I think his impact at the NHL level, unfortunately, has been mostly negative.
