Gameday: Crunch At Amerks Tuesday Dec 15th
The game is not on any printed schedule as it was moved from a date in January, but make sure you don’t miss out on the seventh game of the season between the Syracuse Crunch and Rochester Americans. These two teams do not have any love for each other. If you know other fans make …

Panthers Recall Jason Garrison; Amerks vs Crunch Tuesday
It shouldn’t come as a surprise to Amerks fans that the Panthers played another game and have called up another player, this time it’s Jason Garrison. Jordan Leopold was hit by a shot on Saturday night and is hobbled by a sore leg or foot. It’s possible he’ll be fine and Garrison will fly back …

12/12 Jimmy Bonneau vs Grant McNeil Fight Video
Jimmy Bonneau has been a consistent enforcer for the Amerks this season and with the team already trailing 4-0 he dropped the gloves to square off with Grant McNeil. A decent fight even after the jersey went over his head he continued to connect with punches. Bonneau has not only been a consistent enforcer but …

Amerks Chased Down by Bears, Lose 6-2
The complete team won on Saturday night and that team was the Hershey Bears. The game ended with the Bears winning 6-2 which goes along with the Amerks motto this season of losing big if they’re going to lose. I did not watch the game so I can’t offer too much, but from what I …

Dylan Hunter Brings Bad Karma; Amerks Lose 2-1
The headline sounds like one I would have written two seasons ago during one of the worst seasons the Amerks have ever played. The game we witnessed tonight resembled one of those games more than it did the Rochester Americans of the 2009/10 season. I don’t really blame Dylan Hunter and don’t really think that …

It really shouldn’t come as a surprise to Amerks fans anymore that after the Florida Panthers play a game chances are they’ll experience another injury. It happened again on Friday night when Dominic Moore essentially stabbed himself with his stick. The result was Michal Repik being called up after the Amerks loss on Friday night. …

Dylan Hunter Returns; York Not Injured
We all know that the Amerks are in need of some warm and healthy bodies to fill out the roster (updates on injuries/callups here) but what was not expected was for Dylan Hunter to be a player brought back to help out. Hunter has been playing for the Utah Grizzlies this season who posted the …

Matthias Called Up; Amerks Low on Players
The Panthers called up Shawn Matthias this morning due to Gregory Campbells recent injury from one of his teammates running into him. That leaves the Amerks short another player. Do we throw up a flag of caution yet? It is a good thing they got off to a hot start to be able to absorb …
