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. …
