3 goals in 22 NHL games, vs. 1 goal in 12 without the luxury of playing on a line with Daytsuk and Bertuzzi and NOT scoring all of his goals in 7-2 blowouts of the very last place team in the NHL... thanks for playing!


a little early to rub that one in my face, isn't it?

Not based on the AHL numbers.

I think it was "pro" but either way I still say Gus was better in college, is better now and will be better on down the line.

And for the record I'm only kiddingly needling you.
 
Re: Maine - the Golfing Season

I am a little surprised at the lack of signings.

there are only about 10 AHL games left and about 2 echl games left before playoffs.
I guess this is what happens when someone is a free agent.... lots of bidders.

what did prolman say on the radio this morning?
 
Re: Maine - the Golfing Season

WABI saying Spence signed a 1 year deal for around 1million, Flynn with Buffalo, no money mentioned
 
Re: Maine - the Golfing Season

Who do you guys think will have a better pro career?

IMO, Flynn probably does more things at least a *little* better -especially in his own end- but Abbott has much the better scoring instincts.

Not to compare Spence to The Great One, but he reminds me a little of him... He is small and not all that athletic, yet he can slow the game down at the right time to create Grade-As. I saw this the first time he wore Maine blue.

If either of those guys makes a splash in the NHL, I'm guessing that it will be Abbott. (Though I'd prefer that both of them do.)

so does anyone happen to know if 10 and 13 are facing off AGAINST one another onthe 30th and 31st?

the Amerks are playing the Marlies twice.

or is either going to make the jump right away?

Congratulations to Spencer for making the Hobey Hat Trick, I hope he brings home the award! It has been a pleasure to follow his career at Maine for the last 4 years and I wish him the best in his pro career.

I honestly think they will both get a CHANCE at the NHL- what they do with it, that remains to be seen. Teams nowadays go through 15+ forwards in a year, as long as they have a decent showing in the AHL next year- I expect both of them to get at least a call up.

I think Flynn's game relates more to the NHL but time will tell.
