Carolina brought their “B” team to Florida and the boys lost to the veteran Panthers, 6-3 on Sunday night.
As one comment from the game thread stated, “The Chicago Wolves were not as good as the Florida Panthers on Sunday night”.
I personally did not watch last night, (I had obligations), but from what I gleaned from various sources there were no surprises.
Carolina goalie, Pyotr Kochetkov played well at times but also looked rusty at times as well. One could say the same about Jacob Markstrom at the other
end of the rink.
Kochetkov made 28 saves on 34 shots.
Charles Alexis Legault dropped the gloves again, this time with Brady Tuchuk. He held his own.
Legault has dropped the gloves in every game he has played so far this season. He fought in both prospect games and now the preseason. For someone who got hurt last year while fighting, he certainly is not gun shy.
According to reports, the Charlie Cerrato, Bradly Nadeau, and Felix Unger Sorum looked pretty good. Nadeau scored on his patented shot. Justin Robidas had a goal and an assist and Dominik Badinka scored for Carolina.
