Smith fights again in his 2nd AHL game...I didn't hear any of it but hopefully he won.

Cleveland - Glenn Olson - (Fighting Major), 5 min, 10:43
Cincinnati - Jordan Smith - (Slashing), 2 min, 10:43
Cincinnati - Jordan Smith - (Fighting Major), 5 min, 10:43

0-0 in the 2nd

I guess Cassivi is going to be the number 1 the rest of the way.

It's been a tough season for Bryz.

Parenteau has been quiet lately after having that hot streak a few weeks ago.

He takes a seat as a healthy scratch tonight.

Pohanka and Canzanello the other healthy scratches.

Malec, Perrault, Rome all out with injuries.

The Ducks drafted him in the 2nd round last year. His team, Sault Ste. Marie of the OHL, got eliminated from the playoffs so now he is in Cincy. He's become an important defensive prospect for the Ducks (HF ranks him #4 among Anaheim defensemen prospects).

I guess you missed out on the Pacific Division Rookie Tournament in September.

He made a big impression on Ducks fans there.

Getzlafs team made the 2nd round and seem to be doing well against the Wheat Kings.

Except they lost 5-1 last night and the series is tied 1-1

Getzlaf 1+2 in 2 games so far.

How did Penner do in the fight?

Looks like he was reacting in defense after being provoked. I missed that part of the game, (vaccums are impossible to hear games over). Hopefully he won it...Anyone catch this fight?
