Because 19 goals and 47 points in a career season in the AHL isn't very thrilling. He is proving to be quite the clutch scorer though which certainly has its value. Hopefully he can continue to improve.
you know as well as i do if he was a first rounder he would of got a shot last year and everyone would be talking about him .Thats just the way it works.

So last year, instead of being sent to the EHCL, he would have been called up instead? I find that hard to believe. Not that I don't agree that high draft picks seem to get some special treatment but I don't think that would have changed anything for Bud.
correction on this post. Westgarth did start the game but left the game with a injury. Seems to be okay though. That would answer my inner thoughts of "i swear he was playing earlier"
Just what I was going to say. They were going to evaluate him today, of course we probably won't hear anything until we see if he is skating tomorrow night.

by last season i meant the regular season that just ended.After you posted that i went back and checked Buds points per game in the 2008 season and found that his where higher with very limited ice time than the two players that raplaced him anyway looks like things worked out just fine.goooooo Monarchs.
Whoever thinks that thundersticks at a hockey game is a good idea should be shot.
they gave them away at worcester on sunday - not enough people in the building to have them be truly annoying.
this is, i think, only the 2d time the Monarchs have ever done thundersticks -thank the lord. for once, i'm grateful that there are likely to be fewer than 2000 people at the game. lol
Also a great turn out from Monarchs fans who where way more into the game then sharks fans. There was several LOUD "Let's Go Monarchs" chants going and well as pumped up and vocal horn beeping Monarchs fans roaming the streets of Worcester afterwards!
lol, did the "vocal horn beeping" fans happen to yell "LET'S GO MONARCHS" through the intersection outside the arena? That would have been us then We saw a bunch of purple so we decided to rally them up a little bit, haha

lol! you guys where great!
Any fans going to game 5 in Worcester? I'm kings/monarchs living down in hartford. I'm not sure if i can make up to manchester for game 3 and 4. As i would i have to call out "sick" to work in order to go to the games. :-/ But we'll see. But i'm def. headed back to Worcester for game 5 at least. I want to save any calling out sick i may have to do for a possible Eastern Conference finals. And if we can manage to get past Hershey to the finals i'm just gonna straight request those the days off and go to the games.

Hope to see another strong showing for game 5!!
We'll likely be at Game 5. Good idea to save your time, hopefully you'll need lots of "sick" days in the next month or so, lol

The Booster Club already has orders for tickets and I am sure there will be others there as well.
Give him a chance.
