      Quick depth chart analysis (not going in any order, positions via EP and some line chart digging in the case of the forwards)


      G: Carriere / Autio / Hudson
      LHD: Leahy / Luca / Henry / Tornqvist / Bergmanis
      RHD: Long / Gotz / Stucker / Jones
      LW: Bouquot / Lemay / Schachle
      C: Buyalsky / Jellus / Maatta / Mountain / Sinclair
      RW: Evans / Spitserov / Tarkiainen / Zapernick / Good / Walther
      Dunno what forward position: Richards

      Obviously forward positions are fluid, so it's imperfect. Like the blueline enough, and if Buyalsky can stay healthy and live up to the hype I think the center group looks a lot better with him there and everyone else bumped down a slot.

        Did we ever figure out what happened to Buyalsky? I don't think I ever read anything on his specific injury.

          Don't think it ever came out, it was certainly an injury. I think someone said in last season's thread he was in crutches though.

              Can't believe the season is finally here! Looking forward to getting to men's and women's game this weekend. Strange with the men not having a exhibition game. I suspect there will be some rust on Saturday. UCONN is a tough test to start the season, if they can get a win that'd be huge.

              Hope to see close to sellout. I know the attendance numbers weren't great last year. People had good reason to avoid games with Covid/the team being bad, but hopefully this year will be different.

                Also Maxim Strbak is having a great start to the season in the USHL. Got a real shot at going 1st round in June.

                  UCONN also didn't have a preseason game so at least we're in the same boat (they talked about it at media this week).

                    Piggybacking off this, for those who care about recruiting, here's where everyone is playing this year:

                    BCHL - Jack Kurrle (Trail Smoke Eaters), Eli Barnett (Victoria Grizzlies), Mario Gasparini (Wenatchee Wild), Karter McNarland (Powell River Kings), Duncan Ramsay (Chilliwack Chiefs)
                    USHL - Max Strand, Colin Kessler, Axel Mangbo (all Sioux City Musketeers), Maxim Strbak (Sioux Falls Stampede), Alex Bump (Omaha Lancers), Charlie Kinsman (Tri-City Storm)
                    NAHL - Ronan Walsh (Aberdeen Wings), Ethan Begg (Janesville Jets)
                    HS/Prep - Kris Krumins (Don Bosco Prep, NJ), Daniel Heroux (Kimball Union, NH), Sam Scheetz (Chaska, MN - he just committed the other day, led the team in scoring last year as a sophomore)

                            5 hooking calls against UVM. Is this a new officiating emphasis or was UVM chasing all night? 0 hooking calls on UConn.

                              Thought the Cats played well in the first period, tight checking, tight defense. Looked terrible on the powerplay.

                              Seemed like half the game yesterday the announcer was saying, Bergmanis passes to Buyalsky, back to Bergmanis, back to Buyalsky ...

                              Munzenberger back in the line up tonight with the top pairs:

                              Munzenberger - Gotz
                              Bergmanis - Stucker
