  1. I want to see savoie play but from what i saw hes not even close to ready. He looks like a little kid and was bobbling easy passes all night. Just because we want to see him in doesn't mean its best for his development. He needs to gain weight and some muscle, his skill will be there.

  2. we keep drafting Christmas ornament sized forwards and wonder why they seem to get shoved aside…..no kidding.

  3. The Bears have a fantastic team. They have outplayed us for most of the series. I understand Savoie not playing. He didn’t look ready for the AHL playoffs at all. He’ll benefit from his time in Rochester right now, even if it’s just watching and practicing. Hersheys experience, team defense and size seem to be something that the Amerks youngsters weren’t prepared for.

  4. rough physical play is working for Hershey ( lack of penalty calling too) it helped the Panthers in the same way. The Amerks passing has been off. They need to expect the physical play yet be able to focus on their game

  5. Worlds has bigger rink so players simply have more time. Its a different story in NHL and for many european players that tends to be big step to take.
