BEERS & JEERS PLAYER GRADES


The Cult of Hockey Grading System:
10 perfect game,  9 extraordinary,  8 great,  7 good,  6 above average,
5 average,  4 below average,  3 poor,  2 terrible,  1 deserves to be in minors.

My Dad arrived at my house last night for his once a year visit. We watched the game together for the first time in years. We also like some "pops" while we watch the game. So by the time it was over, I was in no shape to write the player grades. So I encourage you to read Bruce McCurdy's grades at the Cult of Hockey. I agree with him 100%.

Stockton Thunder Video Highlights



Barons Game 14 Preview; Houston Who?

Away: Houston Aeros (5-5-1); Last game: 3-2 SO Win vs. Toronto
Home: Oklahoma City Barons (8-4-1); Last game: 6-1 Win vs. Texas


Quick news and notes
-This is the fourth of 10 meetings between the teams.
-The Aeros lead the series 2-1-0 while the Barons are 1-1-1.
-In the last game between the teams, the Barons won 8-2.
-The Aeros are on a 3 game win streak. The Barons are on a 5 game win streak.
-Now that the opening weekend games are out of the range, the Barons are 8-2-0 in their last 10.
-The Aeros are 4-5-1 in their last 10.
-The Barons are 3rd in the league in Goals For with 42.
-Jacques probably will not be playing tonight as he works his way back in. After last night's game though, I think that it'll be a tough decision not to play him.
-VandeVelde had two goals last night(almost three), Omark, Motin, McDonald, and Moran all added one.
-Deslauriers will be getting the start tonight in goal.
-Omark is on a 4 game point streak, scoring 2 goals and adding 3 assists in that time.
-Giroux continues to lead the team in points with 13. Omark and Belle are next with 12, and Moran behind them with 11.
-Reddox and Omark both lead the team with 5 even strength goals apiece.
-Barons PP: 17th in the league - 13/81 (16%); Aeros PP: 30th in the league - 4/57 (7%)
-Barons PK: 1st in the league - 59/63 (93.7%); Aeros PK: 6th in the league - 55/62 (88.7%)

Players to watch
OKC: JDD starting in net tonight. This will be his first game this season. We'll have to see if JFJ gets a start tonight or not after how much of a presence he had last night.
HOU: LW Robbie Earl(17) and D Marco Scandella(6) lead the team with 6 points apiece. After getting completely lit up in the last game against the Barons, it'll be interesting to see if Hackett gets the start again.

In front of a crowd of 5490 last night, the Barons put on an awesome show, destroying the Stars 6-1. Omark was Omark and had an awesome goal where he faked out a defender and the goalie. The team has already established a rivalry with the Aeros, so it should be a physical game. This is also the first time they have seen each other after Omark went and skated by the Aeros bench smiling after scoring in the last game. With JDD getting his first start this season, the defense will really have to step up to help JDD get back into the swing of things. The puck drop is at 7:05 CDT/6:05 MDT. The game will be broadcast on 96.1 KXY. As always, you can follow myself(@AHLBarons) and Scott(@OilFieldHockey) as we tweet from the game.

Thunder Plucks Condors in 7-0 Rout

What a way to start off Stockton Thunder Goes Pink Weekend-a weekend dedicated to fundraising for the fight against cancer, than to get a 7-0 shut-out over the visiting Bakersfield Condors.

It was a spirited game for sure. Thunder's Jason Pitton dominated the first fight with Bakersfield Condor's Antonin Manavian, which happened within the first three minutes of the game and set the tone for Stockton's total dominance throughout all three periods.

The starting goalie for Stockton was Bryan Pitton, his first game back with the Thunder after being sent down from the Oklahoma City Barons. He made 19 saves to get the shut-out and looked sharp for having just flown into town.

With goals scored by Craig Valette, Jesse Gimblett (with 2) , Chris Lawrence, Fraser Clair, Chris D'Alvise, and Jason Pitton, the Thunder never seemed satisfied with their lead. Even with a 3-0 advantage over Bakersfield after the first period, they never stopped trying to get the next goal. The second period did go scoreless, but four more goals were scored against Condor's goalie Peter Hirsch in the third period.

It was a scrappy game, complete with twelve fighting penalties, a short-handed goal by Chris D'Alvise (assisted by Jason Pitton), a bogus diving penalty against Thunder's Ryan Constant, 27 shots on goal against Bakersfield, a shut-out by goalie Bryan Pitton, and a happy crowd of 6,707 fans.

I can't wait to see what the Bakersfield Condors will try to get going for Saturday's game, but as long as the Stockton Thunder plays with the same drive they did tonight, they'll prevail.

I've gotta go rest up now-the first inaugural Stockton Thunder Goes Pink 5k Walk/Run is tomorrow morning!
