He also tried to drop the gloves with Oshie, but Oshie begged off.

I haven't watched any NHL this year... the Chase logo on the helmets bugs me.

I had to look up the logo on the Flyers' helmets.  It was some company I've never heard of.

Whatever.

Yes and no.  

Yes, I looked it up, and no, I've since forgotten it.  ::whistle::

More on Barron from the Athletic:


Speaking of value, in terms of bang for buck, Barron has provided that through the first four NHL games of his career. He promised he would bring the bang, and he has, especially against Washington, where he seemed to be short-credited with three hits and dropped his gloves with T.J. Oshie, who wasn't interested. His four games have come against big teams, and the last three have been impressive. I don't see any way — barring a trade that involves him — that he's not on the next opening-night roster. Even when he just bumps guys, they stay bumped.

"I want to be a physical presence," Barron said. "That game (Wednesday against Washington) was definitely a physical game to get my feet wet. I'm just trying to go out there and finish my hits, and whatever happens after that happens. That's something the coaches have talked about, just going out there and being physical, finishing checks on the forecheck. That's ultimately going to lead to turnovers and creating opportunities off of that. ... I think that's going to be a crucial part of any game, especially if you watch playoff hockey. Almost every team that's successful has guys going in there and almost up and down the lineup has guys finishing hits. I think if that's something I can bring to my game, it's going to help elevate me to the next level."

Barron also scored his first NHL goal Wednesday.

"Definitely a little bit bittersweet," he said. "To get that goal is exciting. It's something you work towards for a long time. Just to get in the NHL and score a goal is exciting. It came a few minutes too late in the game ... but just to get that milestone checked off and get back to work today was a good feeling, for sure."

"I just like the way Morgan goes about his business," Quinn said before the game. "I think he's a guy that understands his role, he understands what his abilities are, he can skate, he's hard on the puck, and he's not intimidated. So a lot of good signs that he's shown so far."

Makes sense.  The AHL season ended yesterday.

Go Cole.  Beat the Pens!

...except that article is from last Tuesday, and Cole didn't get any ice time yesterday. But maybe he'll get the nod soon.

He was not on the roster as of yesterday; maybe there was a problem with his call-up?

I'd love him to get TOI.

He's not mentioned on this ECAC tweet either https://twitter.com/ecachockey/status/1394288167054942213 They obviously tried to pad the list including RPI's Jeremy Coupal who played a total of one game on the varsity and now is a video coordinator. They also state that 12 teams are represented, and I don't see a certain school in Schenectady.

He's on the team's roster webpage, but I don't know how official that is.
