THG AU Chapter Three

I know I wrote this really fast after the first two, but my little sister wanted chapter three now and I’m bored in quarantine. Chapter 1 Chapter 2

* Clint stared at the note in his hand in shock and hung up the phone. He quickly threw the note into the fireplace, burning it to ash. He couldn’t believe what he was reading. His best friend was probably going to die. Also, Bruce sucked at speaking in code. *

Clint: I need to tell Nat! Wait, I can’t. Nobody can know. I have to find a way to discreetly train her. She can fight, she just needs to learn how to kill.

* After he finished in the coal mine the next day, Clint started giving Natasha hunting lessons. Knife throwing became her specialty. Soon, the day of the reaping arrived.*

*Natasha knew what Clint was up to. he was just trying to distract her from the upcoming reaping. One year ago, she stood right here with her sister as Yelena was reaped. Six months ago, she stood right here while Bruce gave a speech for his victory tour. Now, here she stood awaiting her final reaping. This would be her last time standing here until she had children of her own, if she ever did. Loki Odinson approached the podium, ready to reap names as he did every year. *

Loki: May the odds be ever in your favor. Ladies first! *With a grand gesture, he draws a name* Natasha Romanoff!

*Natasha’s heart was beating fast. She’d been reaped. She realized Clint knew this was going to happen. That’s why he trained her. She walked up to the podium as the name of the male tribute was drawn.*

Loki: Ash Greenberg! *The two tributes stood on the stage. There were two previous victors standing there as well, one who appeared to be drunk and another who was missing an eye. The tributes were brought into a room where they were given one hour to speak to friends and family before they were off to The Capitol. *

Melina: Two years in a row! How could this happen?

Alexei: She’s a fighter, Melina. She’ll be fine. *Turns to Natasha* Your sister may not have been ready, but you are capable of winning this. Go show them that nobody messes with our family and gets away with it.

Clint: Natasha! Okay, now that you’ve been reaped, you need to be prepared for anything in the arena. Remember, I will always be your moral support.

*They all talk until the hour is up. Natasha hugs everyone and gets on the train, ready to meet her mentor.*

Loki: Just think, in a mere 10 hours, these two will get to see the most wonderful city ever created, The Capitol.

Haymitch: Are you always this dramatic?

Loki: Nothing I have said so far does The Capitol justice.

Fury: Shouldn’t we introduce ourselves to our tributes?

Haymitch: How do we pick who mentors who?

Fury: We’ll draw names. * They draw names* I got Romanoff. I’ll go introduce myself.

*Fury walks over to where Natasha is sitting at the other end of the train car

Fury: Miss Romanoff?

Natasha: Yes?

Fury: I’m Nick Fury. I’ll be your mentor for the games.

Natasha: Well, it’s nice to meet you sir.

Fury: Don’t be so formal. Call me Nick. Or Fury. Whichever you prefer.

Natasha: Okay, Nick.

*Haymitch introduces himself to Ash.*

Loki: And I’m sure you all know who I am. Anyway, let’s have lunch.

*They sit down at a table on the train to eat lunch.*

Natasha: Nick, if you don’t mind me asking, what happened to your eye?

Fury: I lost my eye in the games. We were the final two. I was fighting him off with an axe when *stabs butter knife in table* BAM! He took out my eye. I couldn’t see very well, so I accidentally cut his head off.

Loki: Mr Fury! THAT IS MAHOGANY! Please be careful with that butter knife!

*Bruce stood on the stage, bracing himself to meet the child whose life was to be in his hands. He knew that at that very moment in District 12, the name of the woman he loved was probably being called. Or maybe an hour or two prior, due to time zones. He watched as a name was drawn for the male tribute. The one he was to mentor. Sam Bruin, age 12. Soon, they were on the train headed to The Capitol.*

Sammy: Hi! I’m Sam, but everyone calls me Sammy! What do I call you?

Bruce: Bruce is fine, Sammy.

Sammy: It’s really great to meet you, Bruce! You were so cool in the games last year!

Bruce: Thank you, I’m sure you’ll do amazingly too. I’ll do everything in my power to make sure of it.

Sammy: Thanks, Bruce!

* Bruce heard Tony’s voice in his head saying, “ This kid is counting on you.” That’s what he said to Bruce right before they got on the train.*

Bruce: *whispering* He’s counting on me. Poor kid.

Tell me if you want me to continue this AU. I really enjoy writing it.

CANTLON: CT HOCKEY OFF-SEASON VOLUME 3

BY: Gerry Cantlon, Howlings HARTFORD, CT - The NHL Draft is set for July 23-24, with the Buffalo Sabres holding the first overall pick. The expansion Seattle Kraken, with their General Manager being the former Hartford Whaler great, Ron Francis, picking from the number two spot in Wednesday’s NHL Lottery drawing. The New York Rangers, who had the first overall pick last season, will select 15th this year. The Rangers inked the highly-touted and regarded defenseman Nils Lundkvist to a standard NHL three-year entry-level deal of $925K-NHL/$70K-AHL. Lundqvist played last year with Lulea HF (Sweden-SHL) and played in 52 games registering 14 goals and 18 assists (32 points) won the Borje Salming award as the league’s best defenseman. He will get a very long look by the Blueshirts in training camp for a top-six position. Should he be ready for that, he will play in Hartford with the Wolf Pack.

HARTFORD SCHEDULING

The Wolf Pack secured five home dates for the 2021-22 season. They will start on Friday, October 15th, and end on April 24, 2022, the latest the AHL regular season has ever ended. The team announced on Twitter other dates, Friday, December 17th, Saturday, January 29th, Saturday, February 12th, Saturday, February 19th, and Saturday, March 29th. Other dates, starting times, and opponents will be announced in July when the league releases the 2021-22 schedule. As reported by Cantlon's Corner, a unified 72 game schedule has been agreed to but will start with the 2022-23 season when the league's 32nd team, Palm Springs, debuts. The yet-to-be-named team has trademarked six names: Firebirds, Dragons, Sun, Eagles, Hawks, and Falcons. This season's Atlantic Division will comprise Hartford, the recently renamed Bridgeport Islanders, the Charlotte Checkers, and the Providence Bruins. They'll play a 72 game schedule.

76 GAMERS

The remainder of the division will play a 76 game schedule. Those teams are the Hershey Bears, Lehigh Valley Phantoms, Springfield Thunderbirds, and Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins. Seventy-six games will be played by the Chicago Wolves, Cleveland Monsters, Grand Rapids Griffins, Milwaukee Admirals, Rochester Americans, and the Syracuse Crunch. The other teams playing 72 games will be the Belleville Senators, Laval Rocket, Manitoba Moose, Rockford, Texas, Toronto, and the new Utica Comets affiliated with New Jersey. The teams playing 68 games in 2021-22 all in the Pacific Division are Abbotsford (no name yet) returning to the AHL as the Vancouver Canucks affiliate, Bakersfield, Colorado, Henderson, Ontario, San Diego, San Jose, Stockton, Tucson. The Wolf Pack has hired two new front office people out of nearby Springfield College, the new marketing Manager is Emily Vance, and the new Ticket Manager is Brendan Halloran.

USHL DRAFT

Phase I of the Draft is ten rounds of “Futures” age players only, U-17 players for next year’s season (2005 birth year players only for the 2021 Draft). Phase II of the Draft is open to players of all ages eligible to play junior hockey and are not currently protected by another USHL team. Teams will fill their roster to a total of 45 players on this date; this includes players that were previously on a team’s Affiliate List. The total number of players that a team will draft will vary depending on the number of Affiliate players a team may have. All veteran roster players from the 2020-21 season are automatically protected by their current team, separate from 45 players. This year it was 21 rounds.

Marsella is a Yale University (ECACHL) commit scheduled for this fall that could be pushed back a year. He was drafted by Kansas City Scouts (NAHL) (formerly Topeka Scarecrows) last year and by the QMJHL Halifax Mooseheads in 2018. He was the first overall selection by the expansion El Paso (TX) Rhinos in Wednesday’s NAHL Supplemental Draft. Ryan Sanborn (Brookfield/Mid-Fairfield U-15) was taken in the sixteenth round (225th overall) by the Youngstown Phantoms. Then in the sixteenth round (232nd overall), Gabe Dombrowski Danbury Jr. Hat Tricks (NAHL) was taken by Dubuque (IA) Fighting Saints.

Charles Andriole-(Branford/Loomis Chaffe School) Ryan Bradley-Darien John Burdett-(Greenwich/Brunswick School) Nick Capasso-(Northford/Avon Old Farms) Ben Carfora-(West Haven/ND-WH) Tanner Duncan-Ridgefield Sloan Farmer-(Greenwich/Brunswick School) Brandon Giles-(Ridgefield/Mid-Fairfield U-16) Kurt Gurkan-Darien Brendan Hill-Woodstock Academy (CT) Nicholas LeClaire-Colchester Noah Melanson-(West Simsbury/Danbury-NAHL) Patrick (P.J.)

PLAYER & COACHING MOVEMENT

The Vegas Golden Knights have evened their series with Colorado in the Stanley Cup playoffs because of some important CT connections. In-Game 4, former CT Whale Jonathan-Audy Marchessault recorded his first playoff hat trick in a 5-1 win. The game's first goal was scored was tallied by Max Pacioretty (New Canaan/Taft Prep). In-game 3, they scored two goals 45 seconds apart late in the game, first by Marchessault and the game-winner by Pacioretty. The winner will likely face the Montreal Canadiens up amazingly 3-0 on the Winnipeg Jets. The best in-season hire was former Whaler Marc Bergevin, the Canadiens GM making his Western pro scout his goalie coach in former teammate Sean Burke who has revitalized goalie Carey Price.

PACK RELATED

Expected incoming Wolf Pack defenseman Braden Schneider, who played the first two games with the Wolf Pack and went back to the Brandon Wheat Kings (WHL), was named to the East Division All-Star team. He is now eligible to be in the mix for the WHL Defenseman of the Year Award. Ex-Pack Adam Cracknell, a UFA this year, has signed a one-year AHL deal with the Bakersfield Condors for the 2021-22 season. His deal last year was to be $350K-AHL. Former UCONN Husky captain of two years ago, Wyatt Newpower, signed a two-year, two-way contract with the Detroit Red Wings ($800K-NHL/$70K-AHL). The AHL’s 32nd team is underway. After a tumultuous two years, Palm Springs broke ground on their $250 million nearly 10,000 seat Coachella Valley Arena scheduled to open in October 2022. The team will likely now start to be a part of the AHL league affairs, beginning with the BOG and then assembling a staff. Then get sponsorships and starting a season-ticket drive to coincide with an unveiling of the team’s name and colors for the AHL affiliate of the Seattle Kraken. Read a superb piece from the Palm Springs Desert Sun about all that has transpired to bring the arena and team to life.

BRIDGEPORT

Bridgeport sent goalie C.J. Motte back to the Allen Americans (ECHL) to get some playoff time in. Joining him from the Iowa Wild is Tyler Sheehy. Ken Agostino (Yale University) leaves the Toronto Marlies and signs with Torpedo Novgorod (Russia-KHL). Ex-Sound Tiger and QU Bobcat, Travis St. Denis, leaves Binghamton (AHL) for EHC Straubing (Germany-DEL). Now 15 AHL players have signed for Europe for next season. Ex-Pack, Vinny Saponari, gets an upgrade going from EC Kassel (Germany DEL-2) to Augsburger (Germany-DEL). Now former Wolf Pack defenseman Yegor Rykov, as expected, will stay in Russia. He departs CSKA Moscow (Russia-KHL) to Severstal Cherepovets for next season. Another ex-Pack defenseman, Julius Bergman, leaves Lahti (Finland-FEL) and returns home to IF Bjorkloven (Sweden-Allsvenskan). Former UCONN Husky, Max Kalter, retires after playing with HC Cergy-Pontoise (France-FREL) for the last two years.

MORE MOVES

In the college ranks, two more grad transfers. Cory Thomas Vermont (HE) heads to Canisius College (AHA), and Christopher Berger graduates from Brown University (ECACHL) and heads to the Michigan State Spartans (Big 10), making 49 college grad transfers this offseason. Nick Gravina, Castleton College (NEHC), signs with HC Reims (France FFHG Division-2) for the fall. He is the 12th college player to sign overseas, and 89 college players total Division-I and Division-III have signed North American and European deals for next season. Forward Sasha Teleguine of the Chilliwack Chiefs (BCHL) has committed to UCONN (HE) for 2022-23.

IIHF CHAMPIONSHIP

In the IIHF World Championship, Canada captured gold with a 3-2 overtime win over Finland. It was their third title in five years, but easily the most improbable. They lost their first three games and scored just two goals. They then lost a fourth in overtime but won seven of their last eight games to become the first team to win gold with four losses. The US captured the bronze medal with a 6-1 over Germany. Tage Thompson (Milford/UCONN) had three assists aiding Connor Garland, who had a goal and two assists. Ryan Donato, the son of former Wolf Pack/Sound Tiger, Ted Donato, had a goal and an assist.

DRURY

Jack Drury, the son of former Whaler Ted Drury and the nephew of current Hartford GM, the Rangers President/GM, Chirs Drury, the Team USA GM, scored a nifty backhander in a three-goal second period for the US. Drury was originally a Carolina Hurricanes draft choice. He was low-balled by the team when he left Harvard and went to Sweden. His Växjö Lakers HC team won the LeMat trophy as champions.

CANTLON: FOR PACK, SOMETHING IS A BRUIN THIS WEEKEND IN HARTFORD AND PROVIDENCE

BY: Gerry Cantlon, Howlings HARTFORD, CT - The Hartford Wolf Pack sit atop the entire AHL with an impressive 10-1-0-4 (24 points) and have been getting a heavy dose of the Providence Bruins lately. The first place in the Atlantic Division team also played them last Sunday and will now have a home-and-home series starting in Providence Friday night and then will meet back at the XL Center on Saturday Night as part of “Hockey Fights Cancer” Night in the Connecticut capitol. “Three times in one week is a little different," Pack head coach Kris Knoblauch said with a chuckle. "It's just a quirk in the league schedule.” With the Pack sitting not only in first place but also top the entire AHL has them far ahead of all expectations after six weeks. “At times, our wins have exceeded our weak play. We have only one regulation time loss. We have been in every game, but a lot of one-goal games so far, and they could have gone either way, and we have been on the fortunate side of those games." The late game tenacity in forcing these overtimes and shootout games says a lot about the compete level so far of the 2019-20 edition of the Wolf Pack. “The pressure has been on (us) whether it’s a late game penalty kill in Providence where we got the late goal and stayed composed and you have to have your goalies make saves and we have gotten that.” Its impossible to overstate how important goaltenders Igor Shesterkin and Adam Huska have been to the Wolf Pack. “Our goaltending has definitely exceeded our expectations. Its been outstanding some nights, above average on others. I can’t think of one night our goaltending hasn’t been exceptional. You rarely see a team that has success that doesn’t have good goaltending. That’s the biggest reason we have been doing well.” Not ever aspect of the Pack's play has been stellar. The power play has had its shortcomings. The team is 27th with a meager 9.8% success rate. The penalty killing unit though remains a very big bright spot with the veteran tandem of Steven Fogarty and Boo Nieves as their first defensive forward pairing followed by Tim Gettinger, a second year pro, and rookie, Nick Jones, the Pack are eighth overall in the AHL at stopping the opposition and impressive 88.2% of the time. “Tim and Nick have been doing well because of their work ethic. They don’t force plays, but make the play that is available to them, and as a coach, those are things you want to see. When players perform this way, they’re going to see more ice time from the coach.” After just six weeks of his first full pro experience, Jones is seeing the fruits of some very hard work. “Since game one, we (he and Gettinger) have been together. We have 15 games together and we're starting to read each other and since we play together five-on-five as well we're reading off each other well and getting to know where each other is.” The mixture so far is paying off for the Wolf Pack as they hope to add more W's in the win column this weekend. NOTES: Don’t change what’s been working. Igor Shesterkin will start in goal tomorrow night with Adam Huska going on Saturday night An injury list update. Matt Beleskey was back skating today, but won’t play this weekend. His return is more likely to be next weekend. Gabriel Fontaine will be out for at least two weeks. He is currently in New York getting some more tests done on what is described as an upper body injury. Defenseman Yegor Rykov suffered a high ankle sprain in the Traverse City in September. He is now back skating, but is wearing a non-contact jersey. He is at least two weeks away from gaining medical clearance to play. The other hockey tenant in the XL Center is the UCONN Huskies. They have a critically important Hockey East home-and-home weekend with UMASS-Lowell. That pair of back-to-back games begins on Friday night at the XL Center. The Huskies (2-5-1 overall, 1-3-0 HEA) come off of last weekend's miserable performance where they were outscored 11-1 by Boston College. They looked dreadful in both games and they are winless at home this season with an 0-4-0 record. UMASS-Lowell is ranked 12th nationally. The red-hot Riverhawks are 7-2-3 overall, (4-0-2 HEA) and are the top team in Hockey East. They lead the series with UCONN, 6-4-1, and have won four straight against the Huskies. Standing in UCONN's way is another of the New York Rangers deep goalie prospect pool, senior Tyler Wall. He has been lights-out early in the college hockey season. He's played 11 of the team's 12 games and sports a .949 save percentage and a GAA equally as impressive at 1.59. Wall has just two regulation losses. He dropped a 3-2 defeat to Colgate in OT, and a 2-1 loss to the defending national champion, the University Minnesota-Duluth. He also has two overtime ties to go with his seven wins. UCONN has its next seven games at home as part of a ten game stretch. UCONN sophomore goalie Tomas Vomacka has been one busy goalie. He stopped 41 shots last week, his second 40-plus save performance already this season. The two teams play Saturday night in Lowell at the Tsongas Center. Ex-Pack defenseman Vince Pedrie is hanging up his skates away permanently after playing just five games with the Tucson Roadrunners over the first six weeks of the regular season. He played 106 games in Hartford, but was a routine scratch during the Keith McCambridge tenure. In his Twitter post he said he will try to get into hockey coaching at some level.
