Boucher has not been playing well, so I take it he was sent a message tonight.... That's All I got for you on that... Springfield started the season the hottest team in the league and was the last team to lose a regulation game. Looked very frustrated with around a 500 record since...... Dahlens best game that I have seen... Also thought Palmu and Gadjovich were more involved.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canucks fans need to know who in your expert opinions played poorly tonight. There was a post game confrontation and the Comets players did a poor job of defending Canucks management. Springfield was taunting the Utica players saying the Luongo for Markstrom deal was one of the craziest things they had seen and that Florida management pulled the sweater over their eyes. I give credit to Archie though, he argued that Virtanen proving to be better than McCann and Florida can keep McCann. 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomatoPieFan Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 FOR THOSE WHO DIDN'T WATCH THE GAME THIS WAS WAY BEYOND CHIPPY, UNFORTUNATELY THE HIGHLIGHTS DON'T SHOW ALL THE CHEAP SHOTS WHICH IN THE END COST SPRINGFIELD BIG TIME. IVE BEEN A SEASON TICKET HOLDER FROM DAY 1 AND THIS SPRINGFIELD TEAM WAS PULLING OUT ALL THE CHEAP SHOTS LIKE SOMETHING OUT OF A LEAGUE BELOW THE ECHL LIKE IN SLAPSHOT. THE SCENE IN SLAPSHOT WHERE THEY FOUGHT DURING THE WARMUPS WAS FILMED HERE IN THE AUD. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trash AHL goons on the T--birds 13 hours ago, Alflives said: AHL, and even worse in the ECHL, and lesser pro leagues. The markets want WWE mixed in with some hockey. The one time that the Comets are featured as the AHL free game of the week on Facebook and it turns into a throwback to the 90's. I was going to say the 80's but in the 80's that standoff after the game would have been a full out brawl. The game last night was not indicative at all to what a typical AHL game looks like. The AHL has been on the same trend as the NHL with fewer fights every season and a lot less hits in general. This was the first meeting this year with Springfield so I can't comment on what their typical games look like but Bobby Farnham is a rat just like the many rats that still skate in the NHL and Paul Thompson has always been a fighter and dirty player. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Comets effort in Rochester Wednesday night was terrible and probably had something to do with Boucher being scratched last night. I thought Boucher and Archie mailed it in and both are supposed to be showing leadership to the younger players on the team. Springfield with their cheap shots woke the Comets up and they played with a spark of energy that has been lacking recently. They showed some push back but kept enough restraint to stay out of the box. What ever Springfield was trying to accomplish wasn't working as two of the Comets goals came on 5 on 3 power plays and another during a delayed penalty with an extra skater on the ice. It was fun to see a fired up Thatcher Demko as he was close to jumping Farnham at the end of the game. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any updates on his health. Thought he looked great in the first two periods. ( only saw bits and pieces of the 3rd period ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw him limp off but wasn't really looking for him at the end of the game to see if he was skating okay.. The end of the game got heated because Farnham is a Marchand style rat. With about 6 seconds left in the game everybody on the ice stopped skating to let the clock run out. With Blujus all alone in his corner of the rink holding the puck Farnham decides that it is one last chance to get a shot in and skates clear across the ice and nails Blujus with 1.8 seconds left. He then trash talks everyone with Demko trying to get a piece of him. That lead to the stare down at center ice after the refs ended the game with 1.8 seconds left and Demko still wanting a piece of Farnham. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kootenay Gold Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 Not sure who the player was from Springfield that shoved the linesman at the end of the game but that was a really dumb thing to do. I am guessing he will face supplementary discipline from the AHL today for that indiscretion. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post UTICANUCK Posted December 8, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted December 8, 2018 In fairness thank you Springfield - their antics may have awoken the sleeping Comets. 5 on 3's and extended power plays provided an advantage, but the Comets played well at even strength as well after a dismal 1st period that mirrored the Wednesday dog in Rochester. Though he wasn't a big factor in the scoring, Jasek is showing the level of play we saw at year end and that was Dahen's best game by far. Zac Mac is a warrior and should have been called up for a look before trading for Leivo. Despite how you interpret Comets' fan comments we want nothing more than to see our guys perform at the next level and we want prospects who have what it takes to get to the next level - and plenty of them. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
