HARTFORD WOLF PACK SEASON PREVIEW 2022-23

HARTFORD WOLF PACK SEASON PREVIEW 2022-23 By: Gerry Cantlon, Howlings HARTFORD, CT - Hartford Wolf Pack training camp is completed. The pre-season games are over, and the NHL waiver wire moves have all been made. Now, the real fun begins as the 26th edition of the Hartford Wolf Pack begins as they embark on a season-opening road trip to the Queen City and have a two-game set to commence the unified 72-game AHL regular season with the Charlotte Checkers to erase the sting of last year’s  8-20-2 ending. “I always have preferred starting on the road and not at home. There's so much pressure and excitement when you play at home. It adds that pressure on you. It’s better to go on the road and be together, traveling and doing some (early) team building," Wolf Pack Head Coach Kris Knoblauch said as he was preparing to leave for Charlotte. The team received its last forward from New York, Julien Gauthier, late Monday. He started his career in Charlotte when they were the AHL home for the Carolina Hurricanes. He had his best season with 27 goals in 75 games in their Calder Cup championship season in 2018-19. He was a former 1st-round pick (19th overall) in 2016. He played 184 games with the Checkers and has 96 NHL games to his credit. His tenure is likely to be short as he will be looking for a fresh opportunity elsewhere. “The Rangers shopped him around a few weeks ago, and now he’s gone through waivers. (He’s) got to have a good start to get interest,” said a knowledgeable hockey source. Gauthier reported and will sport the #77 on his jersey. That bumped Alex Whelan (Quinnipiac University) off the roster and down to the team's ECHL affiliate, the Jacksonville Icemen. “He’s a heckva hockey player, he was so dominant when he played in Charlotte at the beginning of his career and he brings physicality and goal scoring to our team. Nothing is ever long term in the American (Hockey) League. He’s with us now and were gonna help him out as much as possible and get the best we can while he is here and he is committed to playing hard for the Wolf Pack as much as possible to get back to the NHL, “ remarked Knoblauch. Head coach Kris Knoblauch enters the fourth season with no post-season action and the team's eighth consecutive season after Hartford making it their first 14 straight years. The team thoroughly purged its lineup with a whole new cast of characters. The emphasis is on character players and bridging the rock cliff divide last year in scoring between the top six and bottom six of their lineup. “Having good veterans to help you win hockey games and help out our younger players improve is always important. It’s early in the year, but I’ve been impressed with the leadership of the new parts we brought in. Turner (Elson) and (Andy) Zelinski have done very well for us and have been great additions, and we'll find out more this weekend, but they have helped our leadership tremendously,” said Knoblauch. Making sure players get the playing time they need was a major consideration in keeping those in Hartford and dispatching others to Jacksonville. “We want players to be playing, not sitting around here," Knoblauch said emphatically. One top-end prospect he wanted here last year and will be here after a pandemic season introduction two years ago is Will Cullye. He played center then, though now he is ticketed for the left wing at the start of the season. “He’ll move up and down our lineup. For now he’s playing the left side with Jonny Brodzinski. He's already on the second unit powerplay and will get some experience penalty killing, and we'll hope he grows. He had a good camp in New York. We're just hoping he’ll develop into even a better hockey player here," Knoblauch said. Last year's Hobey Baker winner, Bobby Trivigno, had a very strong training camp on both sides of the puck. Along with Cullye, he leads a rookie group including draftees Matt Rempe (Seattle-WHL) and Ryder Korczak (Moose Jaw-WHL). "He’s gonna play more games for one thing. He’ll learn the type of hockey he’ll need to play. He’s a very good hockey player, who had very good collegiate career. Now he has to transfer that to the pro level. There has so much potential here. He will likely be key contributor for us.” Another who will be looked at to take a big step forward will be second-year pro, Lauri Pajuniemi. He was not happy at the end of last season. He performed well in camp and in both pre-season games and is expected to be a catalyst on the second power play unit playing on his off-wing. “He’ll have to do a lot of work to be recalled. He can shoot, but we’ll be using him with Jonny Brodzinski and Julien Gauthier on the powerplay. Shooting is a big part of his game and he has a hard shot and being around the net will allow him to score more goals. For his game to get better he has less room and less time you can’t hold onto the puck too long and we have identified that in his game.” He has been working on a line with Elson and Fritz, but that is not cemented in stone. They have looked good in practice, scored some goals, and have shown some good chemistry." A pair of Swedes will dot the lineup at center. They are draftees Karl Henriksson and free agent signee, Gustav Rydahl. “They’re two different types of players in their development stage. Rydahl has played pro for quite some time now. I think to make the jump, they (the Rangers) hope he can continue to get better and learn the North American game better in Hartford. The organization was happy with his play at camp, though he’s not quite ready yet, or they couldn't find a spot for him at this point. Karl is real prospect with lots of upside potential, and where he’s gonna fit in our lineup.” Patrick Khordorenko is back playing on the last year of his Entry Level Contract as is the resigned Austin Rueschhoff. “Patrick played very well and was probably our best forward the last six weeks of the season. He’s a depth player at center for us right now. Austin has the size and everybody is looking for a player with the size who can score. When he plays his best, he’s playing physical. He went on a tear in January where he had six goals in five games. He can certainly deliver and has the potential to breakout.” Captain Jonny Brodzinki and now veteran forward Tim Gettinger will lead the 25 members of the Wolf Pack. Paired together on the #1-line last year, they will be split up on the first two lines to start the season. Tanner Fritz will be called upon to play his usual swing role at forward. “Jonny was so good for us and then he went up to New York. Tim was injured for us in the second half. When he played, he was spot on. I have no worries in play from either player.” The defense will have a whole new set of players with off-season signings in Andy Welinski from the (AHL) Stockton Heat (Calgary Flames) and Ty Emberson of the (AHL) Tucson Roadrunners (Phoenix Coyotes). Returning are Matt Robertson and Zach Giuttari (Loomis Chafee), Hunter Skinner, and late-season addition Brandon Scanlin as the only holdovers from last season. The defense has always been seen as an organizational surplus, and the team will carry eight d-men to start the regular season. “We have a lot of returning players coming back entering their second season. You’re anticipating and always think they’re ready to take that next step up; that’s not always the case; some do, and some don’t, but I think these guys are ready to do that. We have a lot more experience on defense than at forward, and they have to learn to play together and be themselves. Tim Theocharidis, who almost played his way on the lineup like Mason Geersten did two years ago, was sent to Jacksonville. However, the former ASU product was on an ECHL contract, not an AHL deal. In net, Louie Domingue, who buried them last year in Wilkes-Barre/Scranton, is guarding their cage now. Knoblauch is enthusiastic about starting with him and hopefully will have a better relationship with him than he had with the talented but mercurial Keith Kinkaid and the ineffectual Tyler Wall, who are both now in Providence and South Carolina (ECHL), respectively. “Very sociable guy, and everybody likes to be around. He has spent time on the ice with (other) goalies helping them out with certain things. Our starter on opening night is still to be diagnosed. Dylan Garand, the young prodigy out of Kamloops (WHL) who was signed mid-season last year to his ELC deal, will be a work in progress for the undersized but proficient goalie at the bottom end of the height scale wanted in pro hockey. “I just spoke to him, and he says 'I’m the same height as Igor Shesterkin.' So, if Igor can pull of his play (Vezina winner) never underestimate an undersized goalie,” remarked Knoblauch. Swedish player Olof Lindbom, the third goalie, will start the season with the Pack. Depending on playing time, he could be sent back to Sweden or to an unaffiliated ECHL team, or a loan deal worked. “He is gonna stay here in North America in Jacksonville or Hartford; that is still to be determined. He is technically sound and a very strong goalie. It’s very different in North America there is more traffic in front and a lot more small details to work on. We think very highly of him.” NOTES: Defenseman Ben Harpur, 27, is the latest to join the Wolf Pack as a late addition after splitting the 2021-22 season between the Nashville Predators and Milwaukee Admirals. With the Predators, Harpur appeared in 19 games and registered an assist. While with the Admirals, Harpur skated in six games and recorded five penalty minutes. He has played in 176 career AHL games, scoring 56 points (7 goals, 49 assists) with the Admirals, Toronto Marlies, Belleville Senators, and Binghamton Senators. Harpur also served as an Alternate Captain for the Binghamton Senators during the 2017-18 season. Harpur was selected in the fourth round (108th overall) by the Ottawa Senators in the 2013 NHL Entry Draft. Harpur has appeared in 156 career NHL games with the Senators and Predators, where he registered 15 points (1 goal and 14 assists). He scored his first and only NHL goal on December 1st, 2018, against the San Jose Sharks. Vitali Kravtsov sustained an upper-body injury in the Rangers opening night 3-1-win Tuesday over the Tampa Bay Lightning. He was out of the lineup in the 7-3 win over the Minnesota Wild and will not affect the Pack line-up. Talyn Boyko, the 18-year-old goalie, after being released from his ATO in Hartford and being reassigned to Jacksonville before heading back to Kelowna (WHL) as per the NHL-CHL agreement, signed his three-year ELC deal with the Rangers for $850K-NHL/$77,750K-AHL. Ranger newcomer draftee, Ryder Korczak, saw his older brother Kaedan get assigned to the Henderson Silver Knights by Vegas along with Peter DiLiberatore (Quinnipiac University-ECACHL). The Wolf Pack will have a new skills development coach. Colin Downey replaces  Casey Torres, who was replaced by Jamie Tardif as the assistant coach this year. Torres departure was handled very quietly and efficiently.  It's not clear if it was mutual, his or the Pack's choice. Downey played collegiately at D3 Bowdoin College (NESCAC) in Maine and then professionally in Europe for eight years in France with Tours, HC Cholet, HC Mulhouse, Mont Blanc, and HC Courbevoie between France Division 2 and the French Elite League in the Magnus league. Ex-Pack Pierre-Cédric Labrie gets a contract upgrade from a two-year AHL deal from Syracuse to a one-year, two-way deal with Tampa Bay at $770,800K-NHL/$100,000K-AHL. He was put on waivers to return to Syracuse with a few more dollars in his bank account. Syracuse announced they and the Lightning have extended their affiliation agreement another five years to 2026-27. Rangers draftee Bryce McConnell-Barker was named captain of his OHL team, the Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds. Brennan Othmann is named winner of the Lars-Erik Sjoberg Award as the best rookie in the Rangers' camp and was reassigned to Flint (OHL) last week. Bridgeport Islanders made their last cuts sending to the Worcester Railers (ECHL) Ken Appleby, Trevor Cosgrove, Blade Jenkins, Connor McCarthy, Reece Newkirk, and Henrik Tikkanen. Former goalie C.J. Motte is sent from the Iowa Wild camp as the last cut to the Iowa Heartlanders (ECHL) camp. Richard Pánik heads off to Lausanne HC (Switzerland-LNA) on a loan basis. Matthias Samuelsson (no relation to Ulf) is the son of former New Haven Nighthawk Kjell. He signs a one-year ELC contract extension with Buffalo. Adam Samuelsson, the youngest son of Ulf. He leaves Idaho (ECHL) camp just before it starts. No new destination was announced. Goalie Jon Gillies (Salisbury School) was sent to Tucson (AHL). Last year he played with four teams, two AHL, and two NHL. Ethan Cardwell, the nephew of ex-New Haven Knight Matt, is sent back to Barrie Colts (OHL) from the San Jose Barracuda camp. Last season's Pack player, Zach Berzolla, was one of the last cuts in Rochester. He was assigned to Cincinnati (ECHL). Undrafted Tye McSorley, the nephew of former Nighthawk Chris and Springfield coach and ex-Ranger his other uncle Marty, is with Greenville (ECHL) camp. Chris’s son, Aidan, is playing pro hockey in Switzerland with HC Pegassona-Ceregio (Switzerland Division-1). Father Chris is looking for work as he was just fired as the head coach of HC Lugano. Ex-Pack Lewis-Zerter Gossage (Kent School) is heading from Maine (ECHL) back over to Germany to Eisbären Berlin (Germany-DEL) and has been loaned out Lausitzer Füchse (Germany DEL-2). Our NHL source out West reports things in the Western Conference of the AHL are looking good. “San Jose has got a great new place and Coachella Valley seems on target and having the good weather allows you to hit construction timelines. It’s looking good out there (West).” When discussing the NHL's new setup in the ASU arena in Phoenix, the source said, “It's beautiful and brand new however it’s still a college rink, but I’ll try to avoid it if I can.” HARTFORD WOLF PACK HOME Read the full article

NEW YORK RANGERS AND HARTFORD WOLF PACK MAKE FINAL ROSTER CUTS

NEW YORK RANGERS AND HARTFORD WOLF PACK MAKE FINAL ROSTER CUTS By: Gerry Cantlon, Howlings HARTFORD, CT -  The New York Rangers and Hartford Wolf Pack made their final roster moves Sunday. The Rangers assigned right-winger Julien Gauthier from New York to Hartford after clearing waivers as their 16th forward. Defenseman Jarred Tinordi, also put on waivers, had a different outcome. The Chicago Blackhawks claimed Tinordi. If reassigned to the Rockford IceHogs, he must pass through waivers again. The move now allows the Wolf Pack to negotiate with defenseman Tim Theocharidis, the only player on the roster on a Professional Try-Out. It also allows the Pack and Rangers to make one player move each, as cap and player options are very tight. The Rangers released defenseman Matt Bartowski as there would have been a veteran issue. Hartford sent their off-season free-agent signings, Zach Jordan, Ryan Lohin, Luke Martin, and goalie Parker Gahagen, off to their ECHL affiliates, the Jacksonville Icemen. Junior signee Louka Henault, a second-year pro and last year's walk-on Cristiano DiGiacinto, also was dispatched to Jacksonville. Pack captain Jonny Brodzinski's younger brother, Easton Brodzinski, is also packing his bags for Florida. Goalie Talyn Boyko gets a Florida vacation before returning to Kelowna (WHL) after his release from his ATO. The Wolf Pack released their training camp PTOs Brendan Harris, former UCONN player Joe Masonius, Jake Ryczek, and Sam Sternschein. Colin Downey will be the new skills development coach as he replaces Casey Torres, who Jamie Tardif replaced as the assistant coach this year. Torres' departure was handled very quietly and efficiently. How it came about is a mystery. Downey played collegiately at D3 Bowdoin College in Maine and professionally for eight years in Europe in France with Tours, HC Cholet, HC Mulhouse, Mont Blanc, and HC Courbevoie between France Division 2 and the French Elite League in the Magnus league. NOTES: Ex-Pack Pierre-Cédric Labrie gets a contract upgrade from a two-year AHL deal from the Syracuse Crunch to a one-year, two-way deal with the Tampa Bay Lightning at $770,800K (NHL)/$100K (AHL) whom they needed late last year. Jansen Harkins, the son ex-Hartford Whaler, Todd Harkins, walks across the hallway to the Manitoba Moose. Ridley Greig, the son ex-Whaler Mark Greig, a scout for the Philadelphia Flyers, was assigned to the Belleville Senators. John Hayden (Yale) is cut by the Seattle Krakken and is heading to Coachella Valley (Palm Springs). Goalie Tomáš Vomáčka, the former UCONN star, is assigned to the Norfolk Admirals (ECHL). A former Hockey East opponent and ex-Pack goalie Tyler Wall is heading to the Reading Royals (ECHL). Alexandre Fortin, the nephew of former Whaler Jean-Sébastien Giguère, goes from the Hershey Bears to the South Carolina Stingrays (ECHL). Former Bridgeport Sound Tiger Victor Bartley departs Kunlun (China-KHL) for the Utah Grizzlies (ECHL), and Jarrod Gourley, a former UCONN Husky, is sent to the Adirondack Thunder (ECHL). Rangers draftee Bryce McConnell-Barker was named the captain of his OHL team, the Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds. Brennan Othmann has been named the Lars-Erik Sjoberg Award winner as the Rangers camp's best rookie. He was reassigned to Flint (OHL) last week. HARTFORD WOLF PACK HOME Read the full article

CANTLON: HARTFORD WOLF PACK OFFSEASON NOTES 10

BY: Gerry Cantlon, Howlings HARTFORD, CT - The world of professional hockey never sleeps. Being past the NHL Draft and initial free agent frenzy means the fine-tuning is underway. Meanwhile, in Hartford, the reunion of Hartford Whalers at the annual event at Dunkin Donuts Park by the Yard Goats drew a multitude of ex-players and plenty of fans. From his home in Florida, Dave Keon sent a thoughtful, heartfelt video message to his former teammates and fans. The Yard Goats hope to add more names next year as Ron Francis and Ulf Samuelsson couldn't attend this year because Francis's daughter was getting married. 70-year-old Nick Fotiu, who played for both the New England and Hartford Whalers, the Rangers, and at three separate times played and was an assistant coach in New Haven, and was also an assistant coach for the Hartford Wolf Pack, was unable to come. However, his grandson was graduating from the NYC police academy. He hopes to return to attending next year. The Staten Island-born Fotiu still maintains his home in Cape Cod. Mark Howe, now retired as the head of scouting for Detroit, may join his brother Marty next year, a resident who has been an attendee for the annual event. Sean Burke was to attend. He now is in a scouting role after leaving Montreal for Las Vegas, where he joins old Whaler teammate Jim McKenzie,  who couldn't make it. SCHEDULING The unified 72-game AHL schedule for 2022-23 was unveiled last week. Hartford opens on the road with a two-game set in Charlotte on October 14 and 15 and will play in the eight-team Atlantic Division. They open up at home a week later with the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins. The day after Thanksgiving, they are in Bridgeport and play host to Springfield on New Year's Eve at 5:30. The schedule features three new Central Division teams Grand Rapids, Rockford, and Milwaukee. Milwaukee arrives on December 9th and marks its first appearance since February 14th, 2003. They now play in a new arena, the Panther Arena, as the Bradley Center is gone. Grand Rapids travels in the next night and haven't seen the XL Center since January 2nd, 2009, and they play Rockford a week before, on December 2nd, for the first time. Laval and Belleville have been dropped from their schedule. Tim Gettinger's new deal of one year was announced as a one-year two-way at $750K-NHL/$125K-AHL. Rangers added depth and experience in signing C.J. Smith from the defending Calder Cup champs, Chicago Wolves, at one year and one-way money of $750K. Ex-Pack Ryan Dmowski (Old Lyme/The Gunn School) signs with Texas (AHL). Kasperi Kapanen, son of former Whaler Sami Kapanen, signs a two-year extension with Pittsburgh for $3.2M per released terms. Wolf Pack spare goalie the last two years, François Brassard, heads to Providence, getting a two-way (AHL-ECHL) deal and likely end up in Maine (Portland). Joining him is the recently re-signed ex-Pack of one game, the last game before the pandemic hit three years ago, Connor Bleackley. Ex-Pack Terrance Wallin (The Gunn School) was named the Mariners' new coach replacing ex-Sound Tiger Ben Guite, who took the job at D3 small Ivy at Bowdoin College (NESCAC). Tyce Thompson, the youngest son of ex-Pack and current Bridgeport head coach Brent Thompson, signed a two-year extension. The deal is split $750K -NHL /$125K-AHL his first year and one-way money at $775K his second year. The Bridgeport Islanders have joined the big goalie craze signing 6'8 Finnish Islanders, a 7th-round draft choice last year. Henrik Tikkanen (MODO Sweden-SHL). They did sign from Saint John (QMJHL) undrafted Vincent Sévigny, son ex-Pack Pierre Sévigny, and re-signed an old defenseman from two years ago, Ryan MacKinnon, who split last year between Lehigh Valley/ Reading (ECHL). AHL CALGARY GETS A NAME The Calgary AHL franchise has a name, the Wranglers. It adopted the name of the WHL team of yesteryear (1977-1985) when the franchise was a junior team and moved to Billings, MT, becoming the Bighorns. That lasted five years before being sold and moved again. The logo is a sharp red W with a flame at the bottom. It honors their western cowboy roots early days of the franchise in Atlanta. The team was in Stockton as the Heat for five years, and its eighth version of an AHL team started in Maine in the early 1990s. Among the first signees was Alberta native Brett Sutter, the son of Darryl Sutter, the Calgary Flames head coach. He is the tenth Sutter to play pro hockey. The original junior team name was the Centennials from 1967-1977, the last year of the WCHL before it became the WHL. Junior hockey returned to Calgary when professional wrestler Brett "The Hitman" Hart, a Calgary native, lent his money and his Hitman moniker to the franchise in 1995, which it still is. The first year of junior hockey, then the WCMHL, was 1966. The team, for one year, was called the Buffaloes. The WHA team lasted two years (1975-77) and was the Cowboys. The new Springfield GM and St. Louis scout is Connecticut resident and former Rangers Director of Pro Scouting for the last 12 years, Kevin Maxwell, 62. Maxwell played in NHL for three teams Minnesota, the Colorado Rockies, and New Jersey, and worked as a scout, Director of Pro Scouting, and assistant coach for the Whalers for four years, North Stars, Devils, Flyers, Dallas, and the Islanders. His son Chase (Xavier HS) plays for the CT Junior Rangers (NCDC). His eldest son, Jackson, played club hockey for Springfield College (ACHA Division-III), followed in his footsteps, and is a scout for Toronto. Former Nighthawk Sylvain Couturier is hired as the new GM by the Cape Breton Eagles (QMJHL). After twenty years, he leaves Acadie-Bathurst Titan (QMJHL) from the other side of the province. Former New Haven Senator Jake Grimes has left Cape Breton as head coach for the University of Waterloo (OUAA) next season as their new bench boss. Former UCONN player Ben Freeman signs with the Greenville Swamp Rabbits. In addition, ex-Sound Tiger Robert "Bobo" Carpenter signs a one-year deal with Florida (ECHL). Defenseman Zack Malik split last season in the Czech Republic (Czechia) Division-2 with his former Whaler, Springfield Indians, Ranger, and Beast New Haven father Marek, an assistant coach with HC Frydek-Mistek and HK Dukla Jihlava, heads to FPS (Finland Mestis Divison-2).

This is after establishing the program just 12 years ago in a country with just three rinks on the island nation. The game-winner came off the stick Hung-Li Chou on a two-on-one with his tourney-leading tenth goal. He scored early after host Mexico had tied the score late with an extra attacker with a minute left in regulation on the powerplay. Taiwan (Chinese Taipei) was the tournament Cindrella's. They beat Mexico in the preliminary round in OT and Israel in OT in the semi-final by the count of 6-5 on a Chou goal. Australia won bronze by beating Israel 1-0 as Ethan Hawes had the only goal.

Mountaineering Film at Bowdoin Addresses Race and the Outdoors February 2, 2018 by Rebecca Goldfine Tyrhee Moore and Scott Briscoe discussing their documentary, An American Ascent. The first event at Bowdoin in celebration of Black History Month featured ice picks, freezing gales at high altitudes, and dangerous snow squalls. The Bowdoin Outing Club, Student Center for Multicultural Life, and Student Activities teamed up on Thursday evening to bring two groundbreaking mountaineers to Bowdoin, Scott Briscoe and Tyrhee Moore. The two screened and discussed their 2014 documentary, An American Ascent.  With a team of nine climbers, Briscoe and Moore were part of the first African American team to summit North America’s highest peak, Denali, in Alaska. Not only does their documentary depict an exciting adventure, it also addresses an important issue: the lack of diversity in the outdoors. Darius Riley ’19 @Swingline_g , also an Outing Club expedition leader, said he found the film inspiring because it encourages students of color to step outside of where they are comfortable and to challenge themselves. “For a black student like me to come to a predominantly white institution in a state that is 95 percent white is already a huge step out of my comfort zone,” he said, and the film reinforces the importance of continuing to push himself. Riley noted, additionally, that the film is also helpful for white students to watch. “It’s important to screen this film because it makes black and white students recognize elements of their counterparts’ perspectives. White students who may be privileged enough to take advantage of these spaces are made aware of the absence of minorities in these outdoor spaces.” Because, ultimately, it is not just white people who are faced with and must grapple with daunting environmental challenges. “This film encourages students of every race, creed, and color to take care of these sacred spaces” in nature, Riley said. . . . #BlackHistoryMonth #BHM #BlackPeople #Culture #BowdoinCollege #BowdoinOutingClub #Diversity #Outdoors #Adventure #Melanin #BlackPeople #Blackoutweekend #Ski #Skydive #MountainClimb #Travel #AnAmericanAscent #Migos
