Abate-Schmaltz-Duran
Mutter–Callin-Farinacci

Springfield Thunderbirds Projected Lines

Stenberg-Dean-Carbonneau
Pekarcik-Stancl-Thomas
Trudeau-Strange-Robertsson

Rosen-Gaudet
Lindstein-Buchinger
Ralph-Jiricek

Romanov
Zherenko

Players To Watch:
Providence Bruins
Matthew Poitras leads Providence in points and assists with four points and three assists. Matej Blumel leads in goals with two. Lukas Reichel, Frederic Brunet, Georgii Merkulov, Jake Schmaltz, and Ty Gallagher lead in plus/minus with a plus-one.

Springfield Thunderbirds
Chris Wagner has five points in the playoffs to lead the Thunderbirds. Calle Rosen leads the team in goals and plus/minus with three goals and a plus-four. Aleksanteri Kaskimaki leads Springfield in assists with four.

Next Game:

Game 5: Saturday, May 9, Amica Mutual Pavilion at 7:05 PM EST (If Necessary)


----What a fun line Stenberg - Dean - Carbonneau will be to watch tonight. The Calle Rosen trade is obviously paying off. At least nine of those young players will probably be wearing the Bluenote in the next two years, so it would be great for them to earn their way to the conference finals. Let's go T Birds

How is Trudeau doing overall?

[Rollin' on the River]

Has Fischer gotten any time?

Has Fischer gotten any time?

Trudeau has looked decent. Looks solid defensively as well.
Fisher hasn’t played. I’m surprised to hear Carbo and Jiricek are going to play.

I appreciate your insights, thanks.

Fischer is just too young, I reckon. He is 19 and suddenly playing with grizzled Minor league vets.

That’s why I’m surprised to hear Jiricek is playing.

Newpower was the extra RHD and had been playing in place of the dinged up Skinner, so I’m not that surprised Jiricek is slotting in in place of him. If Skinner was healthy I don’t know that Jiricek would be playing.

Not sure where you got your lines but here’s how they did line rushes in warmups:

The @ThunderbirdsAHL line rushes:

Kaskimaki-Dube-Wagner
Stenberg-Dean-Thomas
Pekarcik-Stancl-Carbonneau
McGing-Stange-Robertsson

Rosen-Gaudet
Buchinger-Jiricek
Ralph-Newpower

Romanov starts; Zherenko backs up

Indeed, no Lindstein nor Peterson

So add Lindstein to the list of the injured. Hopefully it’s not serious.

Burns also took warmups. He’s been out injured a while too so that would seem to indicate he’s ready or about ready if they need to put him in the lineup too.

Go T-birds! What a way to make a pro debut for Jiricek and Carbonneau! Hopefully they can meet the moment.

You are correct. It seems Fischer can't crack the lineup yet. Period. Jiricek must be further down the road than he. I know seattle loves him some Fischer, but Jiricek has shown that he is closer ...

IN on onhockey.tv!

[Harry York 37]

Fischer did play three games for the T Birds last year as an 18 year old and was -6 with 4 PMs.
But he has yet to play this season, or in the postseason.

[stlhooked]

Big hit by jyrcik!!!! I like him!!
Then he hits the pipe!!!

[Harry S Deals]

Lol Jiricek monster hip check!!!

[stlhooked]

Too bad they don’t play around here. I’d go watch a game..
Probably a lot cheaper.
Used to go watch AHL game near Fayetteville NC when I was in the army.

[Rollin' on the River]

Where are you guys watching this?

[Harry S Deals]

He hit the post next shift he reminds me of Petro maybe a little more physical
