Worcester Sharks Thread #4

continued from part 3 (http://hfboards.com/showthread.php?t=583509)

aaaaaaaaaaaaannnnd.................go!

FYI on today's blowout. None of the goals were Stalock's fault. Defense (especially Callahan) were horrific. Everyone was standing around waiting for someone else to do something. Stalock was pulled for Sexsmith to wake the team up. Right off the next faceoff, Mashinster started a scrap, but that was about all the fire this team showed. Oh - Petrecki had a great hit - he hit the boards hard. He was again a little too slow to catch his guy when he threw his check.
I can't wait to hear quotes from Coach Sommer on this game.

The only think you could blame Stalock for was being too aggressive on the 4th goal, playing the puck when maybe he shouldn't have. But the actual goal itself he had no chance to save because his defense was so bad in front of him.

Of course, the fact his defense was playing so bad was probably the reason he played the puck in the first place...

Recap
Lowell turned in its second strong offensive performance in as many visits to Worcester this season, taking a 7-3 win over the Sharks on Wednesday afternoon at the DCU Center.

The Devils, who earned a 7-5 triumph in their first trip to Worcester on Oct. 17, extended their overall winning streak to three games and moved to 4-1-1-0 in their last six contests.

Nathan Perkovich led the way with a goal and two assists for Lowell, which also received scores from Vladimir Zharkov (1-1-2), Matt Taormina, Nick Palmieri, Trevor Kell, Ben Walter, and Jeff Prough. Kell and Prough both registered their first goals of the season.

Lowell scored twice on an early power play to take a 2-0 lead. Taormina converted a one-timer with a 5-on-3 advantage at 6:56, and Perkovich poked home a loose puck in the crease just 43 seconds later.

Worcester cut its deficit in half on a goal by Brandon Mashinter at 17:33 of the opening period, the rookie’s first marker since scoring twice at Lowell on Oct. 10. But the Devils took control with a trio of second-period tallies before adding two more in the third.

Tyler Eckford (0-3-3), Rob Davison (0-2-2), and Michael Swift (0-2-2) all finished with multiple assists for Lowell, and goaltender Jeff Frazee stopped 30 of 33 shots in net.

Frazer McLaren and rookie Logan Couture also netted goals for the Sharks, who have lost consecutive games for the first time this season.

how did Torrey look in his first game back, if anyone has any idea?

And anyne know line combos for tonight? Excuse my ignorance, the closest I come to following the Worcester Sharks is playing NHL 2010 on ps3 heh

Mitchell looked very rusty...and because most of the team looked terrible it was hard to see how rusty he really was compared to where he should be.

I don't know the line combos for tonight yet, but check back here later this weekend for game links to Sharkspage where I usually have the lines posted.

Since he only has 3 games, do you think they will recall him after tonight for Saturdays game in STL?

My original guess was he would play here Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday...I haven't seen anything to change my guess yet.

Awesome watching Worcester on ATHE.net. Especially this season with so many kids shuttling between the big club.

went to the game at Lowell tonight, not much good to report:laugh:, Torrey Mitchell looked ok, Ferriero didn't get any points but looked the most skilled player on the ice; and Desjardins went nuts at the end and tried to fight a turtling Micheal Swift

Logan Couture arrived in St. Louis today, he has been called up.

Much better. He's been banging in the corners, and camping out in front of the net - a lot more physical. He's been putting himself in the right spots at the right time. He hasn't been invisible like he was before. So hopefully Kzoo was a wakeup call he answered long term.

Agreed...it's been like night and day.

Good to hear. In Max's write up on him, he quotes Tim Burke as saying that Jones seemed to have lost some confidence after breaking his jaw to start the year last year. Maybe tearing it up in the ECHL brought it back.

Weird. He was very good against the redwings.

I didnt know Seto's favorite player was Kariya

Weird. He was very good against the redwings.

You can have him... :help:

wth happened? They started off pretty well but it seems like they have been crushed the past few games

Extremely poor defense - too much standing around, and poor offense (nobody in front of the net and 3 guys in a corner)

So now that you guys down in woostah have seen both Fierrero and Couture who do you think will be better?

From what ive seen with them in sj I'd say Fierrero is better now but that Couture will be better. Im just curious how they have compared back on the east coast. :)

Fierrero has been just about invisible so far...but in all fairness, so hasn't the other 17 guys on the team too.

I think right now Fierrero is trying to find where he fits in with this team. I wouldn't say he's lost, but getting used to new linemates and surroundings. Couture I'm just kind of "meh" on, but he seems better suited to contribute right now.

Oh good grief. At least they 'only' lost by 2 goals as opposed to 4. Heading in the right direction...
Thanks for all the W.Sharks updates by the way. It's appreciated.

Oh Stalok.... REALLY??

Worcester choked away another one. :shakehead

So it is pretty much a given that stalock has been pretty bad recently right? Have your opinions on him changed at all do to his recent play?

So it is pretty much a given that stalock has been pretty bad recently right? Have your opinions on him changed at all do to his recent play?

Stalock isn't the issue...it's the "veterans" we have on defense. Usually it's Callahan, tonight it was Groulx. I'd rather Sommer bench the two of them and dress Liotti and Loprieno. I don't mind when rookies make dumb mistakes because that's what they do...but it pisses me off to no end when vets make them.

So it is pretty much a given that stalock has been pretty bad recently right? Have your opinions on him changed at all do to his recent play?

The kid has played 13 pro games. He will need a lot more time to be evaluated definitively than that, whether it's good or bad. In any case, it sounds like the whole D has been poor recently...

His stat line (which I appreciate is not everything to judge a netminder by) still reads 6-6-1, 1SO, 2.60 GAA, 0.901 SV% - that's a perfectly respectable start to his career for a rookie on a sub-.500 team IMO.

@210, I'd be interested to know what you think about John McCarthy - how is he settling in? He seems to have flown beneath the radar with so many new players joining the team and I haven't seen or heard much about him. His +4 stood out amongst all the minuses on the stat sheet at least!

He's been OK...nothing great, but nothing glaringly bad. He's generally on the 3rd line with Desjardins and DaSilva, two high energy guys that he seems to fit in well with.

They dug us out of a slump last season, here's to hoping they can do it again.

He's not as fast as I remember him...but we all know how accurate memories are. ;)

He just hasn't looked like an NHLer to me.

Crap! He didn't even break his leg in the off-season. He went from looking great in the playoffs to sucking ass in Worcester? Lame.

Mitchell is not in the line-up tonight (as expected, if he's not recalled he should be playing tomorrow)...Campbell has indeed been reunited with Desjardins and DaSilva.

Hallelujah!!!!!!!!!

Stalock - 5GP, 8GA, 137 saves on 145 shots (I make that about 0.945SV%). That's a pretty fine set of numbers - not a bad 8 days for the rookie!

This.

You have guys that were penciled in as third liners having to play first line minutes, and scoring becomes that much harder...add to that offensive minded defensemen playing in key defensive situations and you have a recipe for disaster.

He is dominating just about every time he's on the ice...because he still makes some rookie mistakes he's probably not ready for full time duty yet, but he's close.

I'll be honest, coming into this season, I was not a fan. I think a good nickname for him is "Flash". Not because he's fast, but just because he seems to appear out of nowhere to be in the right place at the right time - whether it be offensively, or backchecking.

210 and Speed... Is it too early for you guys to rank the prospects you've seen in Worcester this season?

210 and Speed... Is it too early for you guys to rank the prospects you've seen in Worcester this season?

I'm not a big fan of ranking prospects, mostly because everyone looks for something different when they rank them. If Speed or I were to each rank the top 10 prospects on the team, odds are our lists would be different despite the fact we talk about the players all the time and sit 5' apart while the games are going on.

If there's some specific info you're looking for just ask, and I'll be glad to answer.

Is Moore finding his game now that he's healthy? Do you think there's a good chance he sees some time in the nhl this season?
Is Ferriero starting to impress?
Is Zalewski coming around or do you think his improved play this season is related to playing with Couture?

Moore has played pretty well...I don't think he's suffered much from his injury since he came back. He certainly is ready for spot duty this season, but his high salary ($1m) is probably going to keep him in the AHL.

Ferriero has started to look a lot better...I think the flying back and forth really killed the kid for a while, but now that he's got his legs under him he's looked good.

I think playing with Couture has been great for Zalewski...he plays with a lot more intensity than last season, and the switch to wing from center is really looking like a huge positive for him.

How are Zalewski and Groulx doing in the AHL?

Props from agent:
benhankinson: SJ's AHL goalie prospect Al Stalock has Won his last 7 games and not allowed more than 2 goals. Al's 2nd in AHL with 13 Wins.

Zalewski is playing well, and it's not the Groulx you're thinking it is. :D

Per theahl.com, Sexsmith has been loaned to Kalamazoo...which is not a shock. He was PATHETIC in his last game against Manchester. The kid needs to get a lot of ice time, and he won't be getting it in Worcester.

My guess is Worcester will sign Ryan Nie from the K-Wings to a PTO to take Sexsmith's spot.

There was a reason why Worcester kept playing "scrub" goaltenders in the preseason when Stalock and Sexsmith were in camp, and this is the exact reason why.

Very good...most of the mistakes I've seen him make here are mistakes of aggression, and based on the type of player he is I don't have a big issue with them.

How long until Stalock is ready to back-up? To start?
How long until San Jose feels they need to find him a starting spot? (i.e he is ready, either we move him, or move our starter, his time as a back-up is over)

Most teams have learned to never rush a young goaltender. Hopefully San Jose has learned that.

Sexsmith won his ECHL debut 7-3 over Wheeling, saving 36 of 39 shots against him...old friend TJ Fox had one of the goals against for the Nailers.

Has Petrecki progressed at all? I try to watch as many games as I can on woostah streams but I haven't seen much. I think Sexsmith may be trade bait if the big guppies need some Dmen.

Petrecki has far more bad games than good ones IMO...the last game against Manchester he was particularly bad. But don't panic yet, he's still young.

Sexsmith's trade value is right around zero right now, so unless he's a throw-in somewhere he isn't going anywhere.

Sommer and Cunniff rotate the defensive pairings pretty evenly, so "bottom pair" doesn't have a whole lot of meaning...they also switch the pairings depending on who is dressed for the game. Most of the Sharkspage links for the games will include at least even strength lines, so you can get a good idea by checking those out. He kills penalties, but gets no PP time.

If I were to rank the defensemen, I'd go with

Jason Demers (good offense, good defense)
Mike Moore (poor offense, great defense)
Michael Wilson (good offense, good defense)
Danny Groulx (great offense, no defense)
Nick Petrecki (no offense, adequate defense)
Joe Callahan (poor offense, poor defense)
Joe Loprieno (adequate offense, adequate defense)
Will Colbert (adequate offense, adequate defense)

You could put each guy up or down one slot and you'd be just as right...

After the 7 game skid they've been playing very focused and for the most part all lines are firing. Mistakes have been on the low side. I still see a difference when Marchment is behind the bench (for the better)

For the K-wings...

Sexsmith won his second game last night 4-2...was the second star of the game with 32 saves. Matt Jones was the #1 star with a PP goal and an assist. Mathieu Curadeau had the game winner and was the #3 star.

It might be time to send Petrecki to the ECHL...he's actuallly getting worse each game he plays. :shakehead

It might be time to send Petrecki to the ECHL...he's actuallly getting worse each game he plays. :shakehead

That bad?

I wouldn't want to rush him. Let him play in ECHL, AHL, SEL, whatever. Let him develop. Or if he really sucks, trade while his value is still there.

Or if he really sucks, trade while his value is still there.

Did I really just read that?

It's 3 months into his pro career. Of course it's going to take some time to adjust - he was too big and strong in the NCAA but he can't apply the same formula so easily in the AHL.

I can't believe Doug Wilson and the rest of the Sharks brass isn't watching Petrecki closely - they won't let their talent just fritter away. You know, sometimes facing adversity is a good thing too.

Did I really just read that?

I italicized and underlined it for a reason. As I said, I would not mind at all if he plays in ECHL or any league, to develop.

I italicized and underlined it for a reason. As I said, I would not mind at all if he plays in ECHL or any league, to develop.

Fair enough, you qualified your remark. I just loathe threads that contemplate dealing rookies until they've had a decent shot.

His progression definitely seems to have hit a stumbling block based on the Worcester guys feedback but if you factor how he dominated physically in the NCAA, he was bound to fall from grace slightly.

Not you specifically, more HF in general, sometimes I find people are quick to write assets off on the basis of too short a timespan. In this case, less than 30 games in the pro ranks. I appreciate you weren't writing him off though - it was my overreaction:sarcasm:

That bad?

At least right now, yes, he's that bad.

He can't keep up, he loses his man all the time, seems to wander away from where he's supposed to be a lot, often has no idea where the puck is...his one asset from college was his strength, and while he's still got that the number of guys that possess that same strength in the AHL is far more than he saw in the NCAA.

It's far too early to write the kid off, but he's outclassed right now in the AHL.

That bad?

Yeah - I think some ECHL time will do hime well. Bring any pressure down a notch, let him build his confidence up. He could easily be a healthy scratch each game. Although I would like to see him with some better defensive pairing. He's been with Callahan, and he hasn't been very good either.

Mccarthy has been the Sharkspage player of the game twice in a row. He has the best plus/minus on the team. Can you tell me a little more about his game? Do you see some NHL potential there?
How about Wilson? Is his play warranting some NHL contract consideration?
Thanks for all the great info you provide!

I would probably put Joslin behind Moore...if Moore's cap hit was lower I have little doubt he'd be on the Worcester shuttle with Demers and Joslin.

McCarthy is an "energy" player, and fits perfectly on the Desjardins/DaSilva line...the problem with that kind of player is there's no way to know if his game translates to the next level without him actually playing at the next level. His AHL game is good enough to have him fill in in the top two lines for a game or two and he won't kill you, but right now he's really not a top 6 AHL forward.

Wilson is an interesting story. Last season he was the worst pro hockey player I had ever seen...he was pathetically bad. This season it's a whole new ballgame, and barring something really odd happening he's going to run away with my "Most Improved" player award. But despite the huge improvement, I don't think he's got NHL potential. Although he's already proven me wrong once, so it's not impossible he can't do it again.

And thanks for reading Sharkspage. ;)

I know nothing about him...in fact, he doesn't even have a uniform number yet. :laugh:

Kris Versteeg's (Hawks') younger, bigger brother. He's from my girlfriend's town and I know a bunch about the family. If he plays with the edge that Kris does, he could be lots of fun to watch.

I have to agree. The question in my mind is when to the Sharks promote him to the NHL level. And, whos job does he take.

I think he's the 3rd line center next season meaning Malhotra won't be resigned.
Unless they move Malhotra at the deadline...

I hope they stick to the plan this season. I'd hate to see him playing his
first NHL games in the playoffs and getting educated with the stakes so high.

eh id rather not rush him. Look what phoenix did with Boedker and Turris. Now Turris cant even produce in the ahl.

Last i checked Turris had 20 points in 30 games. Compare that with Coutures 29 points in 20 games. And take into account that Turris was competing with Kane and Van Riemsdyk for 1st overall that year.

He's on a role in the A. Let him finish out his breakout year there.

Couture, Stalock, Ferriero and Demers are going to be key parts to this club in a few years, as well as Petrecki if he turns his play around.

While probabably not as much of a sure thing (not that anyone is a "sure thing") as Couture, Stalock, Ferriero and Demers, you could throw Zalewski in that mix. He's really picked it up lately at left wing playing with Couture and Ferriero. Now add Mike Moore to that mix and the future looks pretty bright for San Jose.

This seems so amazing to me. Development is a wonderful thing I suppose.

Logan Couture and Danny Groulx have been named to Team Canada for the AHL All Star Classic...Couture was voted into the starting line-up.

Thanks. It's great to see him putting up nice numbers in the A.

How's Ferriero doing?

How's Ferriero doing?
He ad Couture have been a great duo for us. It took a little while for Ferriero to get going when he was sent down, but he's been playing great with Couture. He gets a great jump on developing plays, and has a chemistry with Couture that I've never seen before between 2 Worcester players.

Do you think Couture will be ready for a top six role next year? How about Fierrero? Also has Couture played wing at all?

I think Couture might need one more year to be a "top 6" guy, but he's certainly heading there. Same goes for Ferriero.

Couture played some wing in his brief stint last season, but has generally played center this season.

Speed, 210 - thanks for all the Worcester updates.

Keep him in the AHL for another year - we need top 6 prospects badly. Then, in 2011-12, bring these 2 up and add McGinn (or Seto?) to the line. They can either be a top 6 line or a killer 3rd scoring line.

Of course, all depends on re-signings of Pavs, Seto and Patty.

Stalock made 40 saves on 42 shots in a 5-2 win!

Couture is having an amazing season.

Top 10 with around 10 games less played. Very exciting.

Mitchell has been playing absolutely great. best game yet and has been progressing the past 5 or so.

Whoa, DiPietro

He played pretty well actually...the Trevelyan goal was a brain cramp play for him, and once the rust is scraped off he'll easily save the Trevelyan blast that Helminen knocked in. Both the Ferriero and Quirk goals were NHL quality shots that get by most goaltenders.

Both the Ferriero and Quirk goals were NHL quality shots that get by most goaltenders.Was he moving around and playing the puck as much as he likes to?

Is Trevelyan Armenian, or is it wishful thinking on my part? I could never find detailed enough bio.

Was he moving around and playing the puck as much as he likes to?

Yeah, he looked pretty much like he usually does...this is what I wrote on the Islander's forum the night of the game.

Just my opinion on the four he gave up today...

The first was a great shot through a screen, the second was a laser deflected in front of him...neither even close to being soft goals.

The third was a blast that he made the initial save on but the puck broke through him and was knocked in the net...it was a little soft, but certainly a save he makes when the rust is knocked off.

The fourth was a "brain cramp" type of goal, a WorSharks forward wheeled the net on the backhand and it banked off the d-man and then DiPiertro, rolling into the net...I'd call this one pretty soft.

He made four or five great saves, and except for the 4th goal looked very good positionally. If he was the goalie for my team on rehab and played like that in his 2nd start, I'd be pretty satisfied that he'd be NHL ready very soon.

I'm going to cautiously say "yes"...this is about the time last season that Frazer McLaren started to figure out he was a pro hockey player, and it looks like that's starting to happen to Petrecki.

He's playing like crap. He was actually benched Saturday night in the third period (Mashinter took his spot on the 3rd line), and he absolutely deserved it.

Couture with 3 points :yo:

Fierrero with 4 points :yo:

Stalock wasnt the one who let in 5 goals :yo:

I'm expecting a change to be made soon, especially since that outing was in front of nearly the entire development staff...not all those goals were his fault, but enough were. Sexsmith has to get on the ice more, and the only way that's happening is in the ECHL.

Has Petrecki pick up his game?

Oh snap. Time to buy a lotto ticket.

So would it be safe to say that Couture is the best forward in the AHL?

He's certainly in the top 10...

Great stuff! Exciting read.

Let's blow this team up already - I wanna see some fresh young faces on the roster!

The report on Stalock sounds very encouraging. With Nabby's contract coming up, do you think we will see him in the NHL sooner rather than later? And would he be more ready for it than Greiss?

They should bring Stalock up to give nabby some pointers about directing the defense.

Great stuff. Thanks, X-Sharkie and 210.

- If McLaren gets a C for his effort/production thus far, that's really encouraging. Can't wait for the Worchester shuttle to end come trade deadline and McLaren finds his way back. He has upside unlike Shelley.

- Not encouraging to hear we don't have any D that standout. Joslin is plateauing, it seems

Didn't get a chance to listen to the game against Springfield...but I saw the score. What happened? Just another example of "Any given sunday (wednesday)"?

Well, Sexsmith let in a couple of soft ones...and Petrecki was pretty bad in a 3 on 3 shift that ended OT.

I think it's a game that's easily won by Stalock.

From twitter.. Stalock added AHL All star game roster

Wow, that's incredible. For a kid that most outside of the Sharks organisation haven't heard of and who was way down the pecking order on this site even if you go back 12 months, his rise has been exceptional.

Way to go Alex - you deserve the hype!

IMO, he should have been named from the get go...

Can you list Worcester's lines? Who's usually scratched and what not.

Thanks

If you click on any of the Sharkspage game links the vast majority list the lines for each game and who was scratched.

210 - did something happen to Ferriero in Wednesday's game? Or has he maybe been recalled? Thanks!

Only thing I remember is he took a puck or a stick in the face..

Glad Mashinter is doing well. Assuming he is in the enforcer category he is putting up some really nice point totals.

He's got the size. How are his fighting skills?

I was under the impression that he was being groomed to be more of a power-forward type player. Either way, if McLaren doesn't make the jump next year, he'll have some competition.

Excellent against the "non-heavyweights", and getting better against the big boys...

Yeah, they're trying to get him to park his arse in front of the net more...he does a pretty good job of it but he's probably got to add some muscle to be really good at it.
