Alumni in the Pros - November 2007

[Al DeFlorio]

Kings trail Stars 2-0 after one.  Moulson -1.  No shots, no hits, no nothing in eight shifts.

Sharks-Coyotes 1-1 six minutes into second.  Murray has one "missed shot" in ten shifts.

[Edit:  Murray now +1 as Sharks go up 2-1 in the second.  Moulson picks up a shot on goal early in the second.  Bedtime.]

While Al was sleeping, the Kings woke up! And how! With less than 9 minutes left in the game and down 4-0, the Kings have scored 5 unanswered goals in 5 min 7 sec, but then take a late penalty (all together now... discipline) and Dallas ties it with a PPG (now headed to OT, Kings win 6-5).

Matt wasn't on the ice for any of them, thus still -1.  As mentioned above, Matt had a decent shot on goal and has had a lot of camera time (he still has those distinctive eyebrows ;-)). One thing that the announcers mentioned was how mature he was for a rookie, due in part to his having 4 years of college hockey and a year in the AHL.

Good night so far for Murray. He is a +2 and San Jose leads Pheonix 2-0 at the end of two periods. Murray finished at a +4 for the night.

Also Wayne Gretzky has a vineyard in the Niagara region and some of his "signature 99" estate wines are available at his restaurant and in select NHL arenas including MSG. Yes, he does have a RED wine ::drunk::.

Good to hear Dougie getting credit for something that doesn't involve punching someone else.

Moulson is playing again tonight for the Kings as they take on the Ducks in Anaheim. I'm pretty sure Brian Hayward does the color of the Kings broadcast, so I'm curious if he will talk about Moulson's time at cornell. I tuned in 5 minutes into the game so I didn't hear anything if he said it early.

[Jacob '06]

And Moulson gets his 2nd NHL goal tonight. Pretty easy goal on a wide open back door pass.

[Cactus12]

I really hope they don't send him down when Calder gets back

for what it's worth, Iggy's days in the AHL maybe numbered...

With Torrey Mitchell and Devin Setoguchi playing so well in their rookie seasons, Mike Iggulden may need the Sharks to trade a top-12 forward to get a chance.

In other Sharks news, Douglas Murray leads the team in +/-.  He is a +9.  Joe Thornton and Milan Michalek are tied for second at +5.  Kyle McLaren's +! is the second best +/- among Sharks defensemen.

[Townie]

Too bad they don't play for eastern teams..:`-(

[billhoward]

To even think about Mike Iggulden making the NHL is nothing short of amazing especially based on his freshman and sophomore year numbers. That's dedication.

And he almost scored another one, but Jiguere (sp?) made a sprawling save late in the third period.
