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.
#2 JAMES VANDERMEER - (6) Big hits and decent play. On paper he had 2 hits and 2 blocked shots. Much improved lately.
#4 TAYLOR HALL - (8) BEERS He was all over the place. He buzzed all game long. He scores a goal and had several chances to score more. He took 6 shots on goal.
#5 LADISLAV SMID - (0) DNP (Injured)
#6 RYAN WHITNEY - (7) BEERS He was booed every time he touched the puck. Nice effort against the old team. One assist and was +3. He played 26:45.
#10 SHAWN HORCOFF - (7) He feels better now. He picks up an assist and was better on the faceoff dot with 58%.
#13 ANDREW COGLIANO - (6) I thought we was OK. Not the same feisty Cogs that we seen a few games ago, but still decent. He was 3/1 for 75% on faceoffs. Maybe less is better?
#14 JORDAN EBERLE - (6) A good game for Ebs. He made some nice things happen and was looking like he was at home with Hall and Horcoff.
#16 COLIN FRASER - (5) He was OK. Nothing really to talk about.
#22 JF JACQUES - (5) Didn't do a whole lot. I kind of figured with Mac and Storts out that he was going to drop the gloves. He didn't. Despite only playing 5:52, he did have a team high 3 hits. Wouldn't 3 hits in under 6 minutes warrant more ice time? Especially when the Oilers could use some banging of their own?
#26 KURTIS FOSTER - (5) He was OK. A quiet game for Foster.
#27 DUSTIN PENNER - (8) BEERS He looks comfy back on the top line. He had 2 assists and took 3 shots and had 2 hits. He needs to play like this more.
#28 RYAN JONES - (5) He did his thing on the 3rd line. I thought he suited that line. 1 shot and 1 hit.
#33 STEVE MACINTYRE - (0) DNP (Healthy scratch)
#35 NIKOLAI KHABIBULIN - (0) DNP (Injured)
#40 DEVAN DUBNYK - (8) BEERS I thought he was great. He played very composed and was great at rebound control. Nice to see him finally get a win this season. More to come.
#43 JASON STRUDWICK - (0) DNP (scratch)
#45 SHAWN BELLE - (5) I thought he was OK. He had himself an average game.
#46 ZACK STORTINI - (0) DNP (scratch)
#49 THEO PECKHAM - (6) He was hard to play against. He was burned on a delay of game penalty as he shot the puck out the camera hole and not over the glass. That, if intentional, would have been the Bad Timing Penalty of the game as the Ducks scored then and once more to tie it shortly after.
#67 GILBERT BRULE - (6) Brule tries but can't be good enough. He had 3 shots and 2 hits and was +1.
#77 TOM GILBERT - (7) He wasn't terrible. He was awarded the goal on the Corey Perry own goal. He also had an assist to go with the +2 rating. You can add 2 more blocked shots to his total.
#83 ALES HEMSKY - (8) BEERS I couldn't believe that he really did get the message Renney gave him when he was benched a few games ago. He was leading the charge every time he was on the ice. Very impressive with hemsky tonight. He scored and had an assist in this game.
#89 SAM GAGNER - (7) He was the center on the best Oilers line tonight. Gagner scores his 5th of the year and had a solid all around game. He stunk at faceoffs. 0/7 for 0%. Ouch!
#91 MAGNUS PAAJARVI - (4) He was only on the ice for a team low, 5:33. Along with Jacques, they barely played. He registered no stats.

Thunder Best in the West Despite Shoot-Out Loss
After Stockton Thunder's Thursday night shoot-out win over the visiting Idaho Steelheads, the Thunder took another hit to their ever changing roster.
Center Chris D'Alvise, Thunder's top scorer with 17 points in 12 games, signed a Professional Try-Out Agreement with the AHL's Springfield Falcons.
Fortunately, left-winger Jason Pitton was back from his call-up with the AHL's Manitoba Moose and was able to suit up for tonight's game. Chase Ryan was activated off the Injured Reserve and was in the lineup. In goal for Stockton again was Garrett Zemlak, who was brilliant in his Thursday night debut.
Tonight's game did not have a good start for the Thunder. Nine seconds into the game, Fraser Clair took a holding penalty. This quickly turned into a 5 on 3 penalty kill after Anthony Aiello was charged with high-sticking in a defensive zone face-off.
The Steelheads didn't score on their first 5 on 3 powerplay, But Idaho had another 5 on 3 in the third period and scored on that, tying the game with the goal Stockton's Chris Lawrence got in the second period.
Once again, Garrett Zemlak had to be in top form. He bailed the Thunder out the whole 60 minutes of the game, and then in the 5 minute overtime period. Stockton had 7 powerplays and couldn't captilize on any of them. Sloppy passing and multiple turnovers made it hard for the Thunder to get anything going. And when a play would finally start to develop in their offensive zone, the inability to take advantage of the juicy rebounds and partially open net Idaho's goalie Mike Zacharias kept leaving was frustrating to watch.
The Thunder was defeated by the Steelheads in the shoot-out. Mike Gabinet and John Swanson scored shoot-out goals for Idaho, but Chris Lawrence was the only one from the Thunder to get a puck past Zacharias.
One bright spot in this game is that even with tonight's shoot-out loss, the Thunder is atop the ECHL's Western Conference with an 8-1-4 record, 20 points, and a .769 winning percentage.
Tomorrow the Stockton Thunder hosts the Victoria Salmon Kings. Garet Hunt and Jesse Gimblett will be available to play now that they have served their suspensions.
Three stars of the night:
- John Swanson (Idaho)
- Mike Zacharias (Idaho)
- Garrett Zemlak (Stockton)
