To answer a question in the October thread, the news today from the Hershey Bears is that Sasha Pokulok has been sidelined "indefinitely" with a concussion.

I looked for him the other night when the Phantoms/Bears game was telcast. He wasn't playing and was listed as having played only one game on the Bears' website. I figured he must have been injured, but couldn't figure out how to find the details.

The Rangers new color guy (I miss you JD) just mentioned Dougie as, "a big kid, who went to Cornell." Pretty cool stuff, definitely the only collegiate reference of the night. Man, I hate rooting against Cornellians, but, LGR(angers)...and I hope Dougie plays well.

Didn't see much of Doug down the stretch. Looked like they were rolling their top four D for most of the third. It was also close to 3am and I was barely hanging on, so I may have just been oblivious. Doug had some big hits. I thought he was going to go at it with Orr before it was all said and done, but that never happened.

Joe Micheletti also mentioned Cornell when the Rangers played LeNeveu and his 20 traffic cones. Going from JD to Micheletti is about on par with going from prime rib to a hot dog. And not just because he came from that other New York team, but he played at Minnesota to boot. He had a (grande) cup of coffee in the NHL 25 years ago and makes like that has some relevance on the game today. I guess Rangers fans were lucky to have JD (and Sam) for as long as we did.

Joe Micheletti has never been one to make any relevance of his short NHL stint. In fact, I didn't even know he had a playing career until you just mentioned in here, because he never says boo about it on the air.

If guys like Tim McCarver and Fran Healy are the prototype for making mediocre playing days relevant and prominent in their announcing, Micheletti doesn't beging to sniff that level.

IMO, it's unfair to Joe to describe the transition as prime rib to hot dog. I find it very similar to the Cohen-to-McCarthy move the Mets radio booth had to make this year. Cohen was the stalwart, THE radio voice of the team, one of the best announcers in the entire league, and the voice we wanted to hear until he retired. McCarthy took over and his biggest hurdle was that he wasn't Cohen. But if judged on his own merits, he did a pretty solid job.

Actually he's made several references to playing against some now-coaches and other assorted people around the league and has most certanly tried to make it relevant on more than one occasion. It's not necessarily a knock on Joe. He's fine, and better than most other color guys in the league, but when JD sets the bar, just about anyone would be a wiener in comparison.

I agree, Micheletti isn't bad by any stretch of the imagination. I hardly ever want to van Gogh myself when watching the Rangers broadcast, which is something I can't say for pretty much any baseball or football broadcast I've watched in the past several years.
Additionally, not only is JD the best commentator, but the dynamic he and Sam had (and their mutual ribbing on Trautwig) simply won't be equalled. (/drift)

Joseph gets pulled in the last minute of the 2nd after letting five goals in, and allows only one goal for the rest of the game.

Ugly night for Dave McKee and the Augusta Lynx last night. Think @Dartmouth last year ugly. Pensacola got 6 goals in two periods, on something like 23 shots, before Dave got pulled. Two or three of those goals were skater, goalie, and no defense in sight, but mostly it was just McKee on a very off night. He wasn't making the saves I expected him to make. It didn't help that his team seemed to be perpetually on the penalty kill and pretty ineffective on the power play.

Shane Hynes also played for Augusta. He's still in front of the net on the first power play unit, but didn't have much of a chance to knock pucks in. -3 on the night, but I thought he played better than that.

Final score was 6-4 Pensacola, bringing their record to 1-7-0; the two teams play again tonight. I don't expect McKee to be in the net...

I think people's expressions in photos of hits going down are often really interesting. The spectator on the left looks like he's interviewing someone, the suit on the right looks like he's taking a nap, and #23 there looks like he's trying to remember what he did last night. None of them seem to realize there's just been a check, or even that there's hockey being played.

And Lenny gets the W in a comeback for the Coyotes. Down 2-1 when he came in, Lenny allowed just 2 goals on 40 shots (including stopping all 17 in the third period), and the Coyotes win 6-4. Dave was named first star.

Now that the Mike Morrison experiment has completely gone away, the Coyotes' next trick is trying to see what David LeNeveu can do between the pipes. Yikes.

"Yikes" is hardly fair to Dave. He's not Ken Dryden yet but in limited action so far this year he's been a bunch better than CuJo (to say nothing of shitty-ass Mike Morrison).

no such luck for lenny in the NHL:

"He's not getting the job done. It's as simple as that," Gretzky said of his rookie goaltender. "I know he's a better goalie than he's shown. The first goal should have been a save. Your best penalty-killer has got to be the goalie, and that goal got us on our heels."

not good for Lenny. I wish he would get traded to a better team.

Yeah, where he can play for a better coach that won't chew out his rookie goaltender after one bad period (after 3 stellar outings) and coddle his veteran netminder who has been pretty awful all season.

To be fair, after all that coddling Joseph has been good as of late.

I've often found myself wishing for Leneveu to get traded to a team with better defense, but Phoenix is one of the only clubs in the league where he'll get significant ice time.

Maybe so, but I doubt it. On Nov. 3rd, Lenny relieved Joseph at the start of the 3rd period after he let in 5 goals on 21 shots in a game against the Ducks. In the final 20 minutes he recorded 13 saves on 14 shots. The next night, Joseph starts and gets yanked after giving up 2 goals on three shots. Lenny comes in and makes 38 saves on 40 shots and is named the 1st star of the game. After Lenny shined in both games that weekend, you'd think he would get the next start, right? Wrong. Gretzky gave Joseph the next start (and the 3 after that). What kind of message does that send Lenny? I'm not entirely sure, but it certainly wouldn't motivate me.


"He didn't get the job done. I know he's a better goalie than he showed last night"
-You had a bad game. I expect you to do better.
-->this sounds more like a challenge

"He's not getting the job done. I know he's a better goalie than he's shown."
-You're underachieving.
-->Gretzky can't really back up this statement, and it sounds more like he has it out for him, he is just using Dave as a scapegoat, or he is frustrated. In any case I thought it was a poor choice of words, and it appears to me to be indicative of a greater problem.

And anyway he wouldn't play much if he got traded to the Sharks either. They'd be dealing Nabokov because they've decided Toskala is the guy they want to use as their starter and Lenny would be cheaper than Nabokov as a backup.

Postscript: CuJo allowed 5 goals on 29 shots last night. If you're getting equally mediocre play from both of them, why not give the young guy a legitimate opportunity to develop? It's not like Phoenix is going to the playoffs.

According to the HF Boards there is a blurb in the Augusta paper stating that McKee has been recalled to the Ducks for a game against the Sharks tonight. He will be the back up. There is speculation that that this move might indicate that the Ducks are getting ready to move Bryzgalov.

To be fair, they didn't say Frozen Four. They said "Frozen Four Tournament", which I supposed could be a silly name for the NCAA Tournament as a whole.

The "this season" and "College" are good catches.

from NHL.com:
"Giguere's backup was former Cornell University goalie David McKee, who was called up on an emergency basis from the Augusta Lynx - Anaheim's developmental affiliate in the ECHL. Ilya Bryzgalov was unavailable because of what the club described as a lower body injury."

a goal and assist last night make Moulson a 17 5 5 10 +9 on the season. I thought he would be doing slightly better scoring-wise, but Its good to see him with such strong +/-. He is getting plenty of PT, but he needs to score if he wants a shot at the New NHL.

"LeNeveu's departure imminent"
Posted by: redhair34 (---.resnet.cornell.edu)
Date: November 22, 2006 10:25AM


David LeNeveu's days with the Coyotes appear to be numbered.

LeNeveu practiced on Tuesday and may even dress for tonight's game against New Jersey, but the Coyotes still are pursuing a trade for another backup goalie.

Meanwhile, prospect Josh Tordjman stopped 55 of 57 shots and won Tuesday night for the team's top affiliate in San Antonio with Coyotes General Manager Mike Barnett in attendance.

Barnett may bring Tordjman back to Phoenix with him today.

Coach Wayne Gretzky pulled LeNeveu from his last start on Saturday, then publicly criticized him for giving up three goals in 27 minutes. The next day, Gretzky spoke publicly about acquiring another backup goalie in a trade.

As of noon Tuesday, the two had not spoken privately about the situation.

LeNeveu (2-1, 4.09 goals-against average) has heard about Gretzky's remarks and is puzzled. Yet, he's not moping.

"My head's held high," LeNeveu said. "I feel confident and I feel good. I'm just going to come to the rink every day and do my job and see what happens from there."

LeNeveu, 23, is not hoping for a fresh start with a new team.

"Why would I want to be traded?" he said. "Phoenix is a great city and a beautiful city. Wayne Gretzky is the head coach, and I'm playing with guys like Curtis Joseph and Jeremy Roenick and Shane Doan and I could keep going through all 22 guys."

Yeah, saw it. John Garrett asks sarcastically, "How many goalies from Cornell have ever made the NHL?" seeming to think that just Dryden had. I mean how many CHL or NCAA teams have had as many goalies play in the NHL as Cornell has?

Cruise work is well paying? Perhaps it's stratified: Decent on the higher-end lines, but I can't imagine getting rich or even comfortable off the kinds of cruise lines with affordable fares. Based on my modest experience cruising, I agree the comedians have to play the middle and that includes not just language but the jokes themselves. They are for the little old lady from Dubuque. You can see the setup and then the approaching punch line obviously floats over the ... wait, tried that once already.

Underhill was playing for the Chicago Blackhawks. I had just moved to this hockey hellhole (IN) and was listening to the Blackhawk game through static on my car radio as I ran a few errands. It took a few minutes of play-by-play before I was sure I had heard the correct name through the static.

Btw, call it the best case of right place, right time ever.

Ignoring the goaltender-only discussion, P.C. Drouin also has to get on that "right place/time" list, as he was used as a pawn in the pissing match between Adam Oates and the Boston Bruins' management in 1997. In a move designed mostly to show up the disgruntled All-Star, they called up Drouin and played him on the first line with Oates. The following article is still floating online:

[www.lcshockey.com]

[Q] Of course, Harry and Mike can say whatever they want about a player - call him a floater, lazy, washed up, and that is "management's prerogative." They vilify Oates for non-specifically saying that some of the Bruins players aren't as strong as players on other teams, and then Mike and Harry blithely ship the same players down to Providence with no pangs of guilt whatever. In fact, this is exactly what Oates was complaining about, rather than the player's skills themselves. Listen: "A guy that was on my left wing three days ago just sat out a game in the minors. Is that any way to treat people?" Oates is talking about P.C. Drouin, a rookie who went from first line in the NHL to benched in the AHL three days later. Even though this is the kind of stuff you see in Dilbert's Book of Bad Management, they say Oates is the one disrespecting Bruins players? Please. [/Q]

Wonder if any Cornell goaltenders besides McKee have been to the NHL without playing in a game. For instance Dave Elenbaas '73, who spent a half-dozen years in the AHL and several years had the lowest GAA.

Wonder if any Cornell goaltenders besides McKee have been to the NHL without playing in a game. For instance Dave Elenbaas '73, who spent a half-dozen years in the AHL and several years had the lowest GAA.

I'm reasonably sure Jason Elliott spent some time on the Detroit bench in a similar situation. I think he was even their third goaltender during one of their Stanley Cup runs, but obviously never saw any ice time.

Elenbaas was called up to Montreal briefly under circumstances similar to McKee's.
