You like hat tricks? Well, you are in the right place! We are serving up not one, not two, but EIGHT hat tricks for you in episode 55 of Field Pass Hockey’s American Hockey League podcast, The Holy GrAHL. Join your hosts Zachary Martin, Andrew Rinaldi, Corey Swartz, and Deana Weinheimer as they bring you all the hats and news from the AHL from February 16, 2023, through February 22, 2023.
First, Corey pays tribute to former AHL player and coach Paul Jerrard, who recently passed away after a cancer battle.
Then, we also award our AHL Elite Prospect of the Week to Toronto Marlies’ Bobby McMann! What did he do to earn this honor? Tune in to find out.
In the news recap of the week, we talk trades, hat tricks, first goaltending wins, and some other notable milestones. And yes, future considerations are back in play. Wondering what franchise-leading mark Egor Sokolov just claimed? We explain in our show!
Andrew claims his own hat trick in our Swipe Left/Swipe Right segment. What hot take does he have that gets him three Super Swipes? You may be surprised.
We return to our take on Fantasy Hockey, the Wheel of Fate. Deana brings the chaos while she, Andrew, and Corey all make moves to strengthen their teams.
Who was hot and who was not in the AHL last week? Find out where Mike Sgarbossa, Pat Nagle, Axel Jonsson-Fjallby, Utica, Iowa, Lucas Edmonds, Coachella Valley, and Ivan Prosvetov rank.
Finally, the hosts run you through the divisional standings and their picks for the Game of the Week in the AHL.
