CANTLON: PACK WIN AGAIN IN OVERTIME
BY: Gerry Cantlon, Howlings BRIDGEPORT, CT - The Hartford Wolf Pack remains unbeaten after a Darren Raddysh goal in overtime gave the home team a 2-1 road victory over the Bridgeport Sound Tigers Sunday afternoon. It was the third Wolf Pack OT victory in their last four games and completed a sweep of the home-and-home series. It was the Wolf Packâs fifth overtime game of the young season and a timely player change led to the goal. Ryan Lindgren sent a pass for Danny OâRegan in the left-wing corner and went to the bench for a change. With the Pack bench on the Sound Tigers side of the ice making it easier to change, it allowed Raddysh to jump on the ice and take a perfect tape-to-tape pass from Matt Beleskey, and in one motion hit the short-side to turn on the red light and give the Pack the victory. Raddysh was all smiles and fist-pumping on his game-winning goal, his first of the season, as he was mobbed by his teammates. âI was getting closer the last couple of games (to scoring), but (Beleskey) put the perfect pass back door for me to shoot it. We try to keep short shifts in three-on-three and it paid off.â Pack Head Coach, Chuck Knoblauch, was happy with the efforts of all of his players on the game-winning play. âHe (Lindgren) wasnât tired, but when you look at it, as a left-handed shot, he would have received it likely on his backhand, where Rad as a righty was able to get it and made the shot in one motion.â Knoblauch was thrilled as the Pack swept their first three-in-three weekend which hasnât happened in some time. The work of Beleskey and OâRegan was critical for Knoblauch. âThey both won their battles to get the puck. The third game in 36 hours and you're tired and that extra effort, that pays off for us.â The Wolf Pack is now one win shy of equaling the team record for the best season start at 8-0-0-1. They're in first place in the AHL Atlantic Division, something that hasnât been associated with a Wolf Pack team in almost five years. The record of nine straight to start the regular season was set in 2003-04. They were all regulation wins. Conversely, the Sound Tigers are off to their worst start in franchise history at 1-6-1-1. The Wolf Pack have reversed their fortune from the end of last season. âIt's the first time I can remember sweeping a three-in-three since Iâve been here,â said Pack captain, Steven Fogarty. King od amazing that it comes in his fourth year in Hartford âIt was a greasy game and again, we found a way to win. Shesty (goaltender, Igor Shestyorkin) played another great game in net, and he and Adam (Huska) give us a chance to win every night.â Just before the game-winner, the Sound Tigers nearly scored themselves as Kieffer Bellows was a recipient of an ill-advised cross-ice pass from Sean Day, but Shestyorkin (29 saves) was equal to the task and kept the puck out of the net. Earlier, the Sound Tigers broke a scoreless duel off a faceoff win. The Sound Tigers' John Stevens won the faceoff cleanly from OâRegan and sent it back to Carter Hutton at the left point. With hordes of traffic in front of the net and a broken stick on the ice, he slipped a 25-foot wrist shot to the far-side past Shestyorkin, who never saw the shot at 14:40. The Wolf Pack struck back quickly and just seconds later. Boo Nieves was in the top of the Sound Tigers' zone and corralled a loose puck while being knocked down by David Quenneville. Nieves shifted the puck over to Vinni Lettieri on the left-wing side. In turn, he slipped a pass over to Fogarty, who made no mistake on the shot burying it for his first goal of the season. âAnytime you can score and help your team to win feels good. Iâve had my chances lately, and finally, it went in. Nice play by Boo and Vinni. All I had to was make sure it went in." As expected in the third game of a three-in-three weekend, in the first period the Wolf Pack had a tough time coming out of the chute and with the Sound Tigers seeking to avenge last nightâs loss, they had the extra step. The Wolf Pack had the right antidote, Shestyorkin. Playing in his first AHL road game, he seemed as unflappable as he's been at home, stopping all 12 Sound Tigers shots including the first from Jeff Kubiak. Then at 4:55, Parker Wotherspoon came from the left point with a bang-bang play. Shestyorkin got some big help from Day, back in the lineup after being a defensive healthy scratch the last two games. Off a turnover, the Sound Tigers had a blossoming three-on-one with Travis St. Denis, the Quinnipiac University product, feeding Matt Lorito a pass for a shot, but Day got back and lifted his stick, and the puck as well. Shestyorkin stopped Steve Bernier on the Sound Tigers' first powerplay and then Colin MacDonald (Wethersfield) twice from the left-wing. In between those two chances, the Wolf Pack had their first quality chance shorthanded. OâRegan had a shorthanded breakaway, but as he got to the net and was about to make his move, he lost control of the puck and never got his shot off. The Wolf Pack had two other solid chances. First, it was Nick Jones on a backhander, and then it was Gabriel Fontaine off a two-on-one bid from the right-wing faceoff circle. NOTES: Vitali Kravtsov's return to Russia is official. He signed a one-year, two-way deal as a loan to Traktor Chelyabinsk (KHL). This allows the Rangers to recall him anytime should such a situation arise. He is still eligible to return to Hartford when the regular season or the Gagarin Cup playoffs for Traktor end since his original entry-level deal was signed before December 1st. He will wear his number 74 shedding the 91 he wore in Hartford. The Rangers lost to the Boston Bruins 7-4 on Sunday night. It's safe to assume that it's likely a few Pack players will not be in Canada this weekend with the team. LINES: Chytil-Beleskey-DiGiuseppe Nieves-Lettieri-Fogarty OâRegan-Fontaine-Newell Jones-Gettinger-Meskanen Lindgren-Raddysh LoVerde-Day Geersten-Keane SCRATCHES: Nick Ebert Ty Ronning The Wolf Pack hit the road next week with two games in Laval Rocket at the Place Bell Centre to play on Wednesday and Friday before heading to Belleville and the CAA Arena on Saturday. The next home game is November 8 against Hershey. Ex-Sound Tiger defenseman, Jessie Graham, has signed with HK Nitra (Slovakia-SLEL). He played in Utica last season and that makes him the 77th AHL player from last season to sign in Europe and Asia. He was in Charlotteâs training camp and was among the last cuts. Ex-Sound Tiger goalie, David Leggio, is playing Canadian senior league hockey with the Brantford Blast (ACH) and another Blaine Down is with the Whitby Dunlops (ACH). Chris Willkie, the son of ex-Wolf Pack, David Wilkie, had his NHL rights traded from Florida to Ottawa. Wilkie is currently a senior at Colorado College (NCHC) where he transferred from North Dakota. Dalton Duhart, the son of ex-Danbury Trasher, Jim Duhart, was traded from Barrie Colts (OHL) to the Saginaw Spirit (OHL). Devante Smith-Pelly, who split last year with Washington and Hershey, signs with Kunlun (China-KHL). That makes 78 AHL players from last season to sign in Europe or Asia. Read the full article

CANTLON: (FRI) JONES SCORES TWICE IN PACK WIN
BY: Gerry Cantlon, Howlings HARTFORD, CT - Rookie Nick Jones scored twice as the Hartford Wolf Pack engineered a 2-1 pre-season win over the Bridgeport Sound Tigers in a lively, spirited game at the Koeppel Community Center at Trinity College Friday afternoon. The two teams complete the pre-season Saturday afternoon at 1 pm in a closed to the public pre-season game at the Webster Bank Arena in Bridgeport before the New York Rangers - New York Islanders exhibition game at 7 pm. The game-winning goal came as a result of some solid forechecking pressure by the Wolf Pack. Patrick Newell at the end of a shift was in the offensive zone and the turnover came to his stick quickly and dished it off to his linemate, veteran Matt Beleskey, who spotted a wide-open Jones, a right-handed shot on the left-wing side. Jones zipped it past Swedish rookie Linus Soderstrom 36 seconds into the third period. Jones was playing his first hockey in more than a year-and-a-half due to injury. âIt was a great play. (Newell) was in there and he got it to (Beleskey) and I had a lot of time and room to shoot and we had good forechecks for most of the game that got us some chances. We want to get it behind their D, and we were able to do that,â Jones, who was playing his first AHL pre-season game after getting in two NHL preseason games, said.  He certainly left an impression on new Wolf Pack head coach Kris Knoblauch. âHeâs a guy who that just continues to impress right from the start of Traverse City camp. He was one of, if not the best forwards there, for the Rangers," Knoblach said âHe went to the main Rangers camp. He earned not one, but two exhibition games, and comes here today in his first game and scores twice,â said Knoblauch. The first goal at 13:46 of the first period was a typical Jones goal. He headed up skating and won the battle in the left-wing corner around a Sound Tigers defenseman and pushed it past starting Sound Tigers goalie, Czech rookie, Jakub Skarek. âI was able to get by my guy. There was nobody else around the net, so I took the shot and it worked out. As a centerman, you have to be aware out there of everything. You gotta hold your head up to make those plays, got to get the puck first, and then I saw a little spot opening and got past him (the defenseman).â Jones said with a bright smile. Ryan Dmowski and Newell picked up helpers on the play. The move again had to catch the eye of the brass at the game and his head coach. âObviously, he has some skills, but what I think separates him is his determination. He works so hard. Heâs not the fastest guy, the most skilled guy, but he just wins a lot of puck battles. He goes in the corner and he will come out with the puck and thereâs not much room out there. He saw the opening and took it and if you want to score goals in this league you have to be determined and go to the net.â Newell was another strong forward with two assists. He looks more at ease than he did on Wednesday in Danbury. âHe got off to a slow start in camp, but the more you watch him play, you can see how smart he is with the puck,â remarked Knoblach. There was, of course, the game within the game as players competed to win the game as well as earning a roster spot. It wasn't lost on Jones, who's a rookie. âCertainly, the first priority is to win the game, but we're also competing against one another for a spot on the team. Nothing is guaranteed,â Jones, a college free-agent signing out of North Dakota, stated. The Sound Tigers did make it interesting on a Wolf Pack turnover on the powerplay as the Sound Tigers, potted a shorthanded tally by former Sacred Heart University Pioneer, Connor Doherty. Doherty was on the left-wing in a two-on-one with Kyle Thomas. Doherty converted a pass on the left-wing from Thomas and beat goalie Tom McCollum to the far side. It was the only tally to beat the combo of Adam Huska and McCollum, who drew high-praise from Knoblauch for their afternoon of work. They made a combined 37 saves on 38 shots. âThe big story today was how well both goaltenders played. It could have been a different situation (if Bridgeport had scored on their chances), but Adam and Tom were good for us. "Anytime you have solid goaltending, you get a chance. When we're up 1-0, Adam made a save on a two-on-one, then McCollum on the four-on-three powerplay. Those saves were the difference in this game,â said Knoblauch. The save by Huska was on Kyle Thomas, who went by Darren Raddysh, who was playing his off left side. Huska stopped former Yale forward, Ryan Hitchcock, as he split LoVerde and Crawley. Then McCollum first stopped Arnaud Durandeau at 11:17 and then Scott Eansor on the four-on-three with 5:33 left in the game. The player who will make the player personnel decision hard for GM Chris Drury and company is training camp tryout, Mason Geertsen. He showed all of his defensive zone strengths and the physicality they like to see. Geertsen was able to use short passes to get the puck out of the defensive zone that led to several rushes, and he made quick recoveries in the defensive zone to stifle Sound Tiger offensive opportunities. The big man showed he can hit and answer a challenge. At 7:06 of the second period, he caught rookie Erik Brown along the center ice boards felling him with a big hit. He fell awkwardly and suffered a left leg injury as he crawled his way to center ice. He was unable to stand and was helped off the ice with the aid of his teammates and medical staff. On the ensuing draw, AHL vet Ben Thomson, at 6â3, switched to the right-wing and some chatting went on with the 6â4 Geertsen. When they got into the Wolf Pack zone, the gloves came off. The two big men had a solid, testy scrap. It was one of three Wolf Pack fights in the game and the first three of the entire pre-season including Traverse City. âTo say he was solid would be a true understatement," complimented Geerstsen. "He is a stay-at-home defenseman and you're not gonna see a lot of offense from him. Today, he was very physical and got in some very good hits, got in that fight, but also he got the puck up ice with nice little plays and his puck skills are very good. "I donât know what his future is with the team, or whatâs gonna happen with getting a contract, but we'll see over the next few days,â commented Knoblauch. Note to Drury. Have a contract in hand for him Saturday afternoon. The Wolf Pack need a guy like him on the team. The Pack nearly broke the game open late in the first period with Brandon Crawley hitting the crossbar at 16:35 and Danny OâRegan, playing in his Wolf Pack game, connected with the pipes on a strong right-wing rush with 2:12 left in the first period. Across the way, Sound Tigers head coach and one time Wolf Pack defenseman, Brent Thompson, was philosophical after their first pre-season game. âI was happy with our compete level. There are some things we have to clean up in our own end. I think our young guys did well. We put pressure on them and didnât connect on our chances, but they had a more veteran squad than we are. I think it was a good first step.â NOTES: Knoblauch indicated he felt the Wolf Pack could get up to three forwards and a defenseman from the Rangers by the end of the weekend as the Rangers work to their CBA cap required roster size of 23. One forward cleared waivers and was assigned, Steven Fogarty. Despite his strong play, Ryan Dmowski (Old Lyme) was sent to the Pack's ECHL affiliate's, the Maine Mariners. This is strictly a numbers game with defenseman Johnny Coughlin also released and heading to the Maine Mariners with Dmowski. LINES: Nick Jones-Matt Beleskey-Lewis Zerter-Gossage Danny Oâ Regan-Ryan Gropp-Jake Elmer Patrick Newell-Ryan Dmowski-Shawn McBride Tim Gettinger-Connor Brickley-Ville Meskanen Defense: Joey Keane-Mason Geertsen Darren Raddysh-Jeff Taylor Brandon Crawley-Jeff LoVerde Beleskey was in an ornery mood with two fights. The first was with defenseman Justin Murray, at 1:21 of the second period. The other was with defenseman Mike Cornell at 12:31 of the third period off a net-front battle. He drew the extra two leading to a four-on-three power play for the Sound Tigers. OâRegan had a Massachusets prep high school opponent, Liam Feeney from Dexter Academy watching him in Trinity College. OâRegan played for St. Sebastianâs. Nic Pierog (Canterbury Prep) skated for Bridgeport while Travis St. Denis (Quinnipiac University) cleared waivers and has joined Bridgeport. Ex-Sound Tiger, Steve Olesky, signed a PTO deal with the Wilkes Barre/Scranton Penguins. Remember former Sound Tiger goalie David Leggio? He who famously and deliberately pushed the net off the moorings on a Springfield Falcons two-on-none breakaway to force a penalty shot on November 3, 2014. He stopped Dana Tyrell on that the penalty shot. Well, he has been signed to a try-out deal by the Springfield Thunderbirds. Leggio also pulled the same move in a German DEL league game for EHC Munich against the Fischtown Penguins Ross Mauerman on December 9, 2017. Read the full article
