In the first game of the season the Florida Panthers rookies were blanked 5-0 by the Nashville Predators rookies.  Chuck Weber had bench duties as coach and in a post game interview he talked about Evgeny Dadonov being a dominant forward in the 2nd period.  Hearing him talk about “breakdowns defensively” though brings back nightmares of last season for the Amerks.

Here’s another quote that brings back more bad memories from the Sun-Sentinel:

“At the end we played a lot better but we got to play the full 60 minutes,” said Rochester coach Chuck Weber, who was standing in for coach Pete DeBoer.

Just have to remember, it’s only the first game and it’s only a rookie game.  hmm.. the Predators rookies played too and seemed to dominate.

Here’s the post game interview with Chuck Weber..

Can’t really find anything else too exciting to write about or reference.  They play again on Thursday and hopefully Jacob Markstrom gets the start and we get to read about him in action.
