Can anyone explain to me why Avtsin is playing once every 5-8 games or so?
It seems ridiculous to me that someone with so much offensive talent would be playing so little on a team STRUGGLING to score goals.
He may not be a great prospect but he's gotta be better than Chaput, no?
Bournival was Hamilton's best player this game, had at least 4 good chances and he was everywhere on the ice. Dumont had another solid night, his boardplay his top notch despite his size. Beaulieu had an up and down game, had some great rushes in the 1st but did a brutal turnover behind his net that could've cost the game for the Bulldogs. Gallagher was pretty quiet tonight, didn't do much and would pretty much get outmuscled by Rockford's defense everytime he'd try something around the net. Leblanc had a good game, could've scored a few times but didn't because of Rockford's goalie. I've been pleasantly surprised by Robert Mayer this year, I hadn't really watched him play other than the times he'd be in net for training camp but he's been real solid and has been the main reason behind those Ws more than once.
Pretty good hockey game, I saw some players have already been named like Dumont and Bournival, I also liked the way Holland played he was pretty good and involved in creating chances and he wasn't backing away from contacts.
