Alumni in the pros - October 2005

Since no one else has started this thread, I will, even without anything to offer except a link to the October news posted under September: http://elf.elynah.com/read.php?1,68222,69674#msg-69674

Last night in the season opener against Omaha, Baby (of the Chicago Wolves) picked up penalties for interference and hooking.  Maybe someone has mentioned it before, but all the Chicago games are being televised by Comcast this year, at least regionally, and you can listen to the games on the Web:  http://www.chicagowolves.com/html/sap_broadcast.html

Charlie Cook had an assist on the game-winning goal this evening as the Philadelphia Phantoms defeated Binghamton 4-3 in overtime.


And Doug Murray had an assist on Cleveland's only goal at the Baron's dropped their game with Rochester this evening 4-1.
[q]Cleveland jumped to the early lead when Valette rifled a puck over the shoulder of Rochester goaltender Michael Leighton at the 5:40 mark of the first.  The goal wouldn’t have counted last year, as defenseman Doug Murray started the play with a two line pass.  However, the off-side two line pass was eliminated in the off-season and two passes later, the puck ended up on the stick of Valette.

Lenny will start again on Tuesday...and potentially could be the Phoenix #1 goalie for a short bit as Cujo got banged up in the game on Saturday (Passmore got called up from San Antonio as well).

After 4 games, Nieuwendyk is 2nd in points for the Panthers (1 goal, 2 assists).  The Panthers play the Bruins (in Florida) on Thursday night (Oct 13).

So I normally only read on here, but I had to post this time.  I saw the Oct. 8th game between Cleveland and Rochester that Iggulden got the assist in.  I spent most of my time cheering for Iggulden and commenting how well he was playing to my parents & fiance; I think people were a little confused how a rookie had such loud fans in the home opener.  He was named the third star of the evening, behind two Rochester players, so I was happy to see that I wasn't completely biased in my assesment.  Watching him play with the Barons definitely gave me a new appreciation for his skill

Also, I couldn't resist bellowing a quick "Let's Go Red" as Murray exited the penalty box i was sitting behind

I was at the Rangers' completely absurd 4-0 whupping of the Panthers tonight - they outshot Florida 49-23, and Lundqvist put on an absolute clinic in the net.  (Luongo and McLennan actually played very well themselves, but with 49 shots and a couple of 5-on-3s, you're going to let a few of them in.)  I don't think I ever thought I'd see the Rangers so thoroughly dominate another team.

What's got me a little concerned is Joe Nieuwendyk - he was sent to the box for hooking at 19:32 of the first period, and after the break, he didn't come back out of the locker room; someone else finished his penalty for him.  I didn't see him the rest of the night.  I can't find any reference to him in the recaps - does anybody have any idea what happened?  Did it get mentioned on OLN?

From the Panthers' web site report on the game:  " Florida center Joe Nieuwendyk left early in the second period because of back spasms. He is not expected to play Tuesday night in New Jersey when the Panthers finish their two-game trip."

Coyotes not doing very well yet, but Lenny taking full advantage of his chances in net.  SI gives him some pretty good kudos in this week's NHL power rankings.

Is there a logjam at goalie? Coach Wayne Gretzky has been impressed with the play of David LeNeveu, who was called up when regulars Brian Boucher and Curtis Joseph went down with injuries, so much so that LeNeveu may have earned himself a regular spot on the roster. Seeing how they've started the season, no wonder Brett Hull retired.
