Christmas Is Over…Amerks Ready To Take On The Bulldogs 12-26-2008
Tonight, the Rochester Americans take on the Hamilton Bulldogs at the Blue Cross Arena. The game starts at 7:35PM and should have a pretty good size crowd as the post Christmas game usually does. Mike Broduer should be starting in goal tonight even after he slipped up during Sunday night’s game.
Stefan Meyer should be will [...]
Amerks Pickup First Road Win in Houston
The Amerks were able to mess with Texas and pickup their first road win of the season tonight in a 2-1 shootout against the Houston Aeros. Jacob Micflikier scored the winning goal in the shootout and Mike Brodeur had another stellar game in goal.
Brodeur saved 26 of 27 shots through the end of overtime and [...]
Amerks Send The River Rats Back To The Sewer; Win 4-0
Mike Brodeur made his first start in goal with the Amerks a memorable one last night when he shutout the Albany River Rats. He made the Rats (who just beat the Norfolk Admirals 8-1 on Friday night) look like a mess on the ice. But, he wasn’t the only player who really stepped up to [...]

Practice 11-20-2008: The Red Army Leaves
“What’d you think of the game last night?” The first thing Benoit says to the team when he gets on the ice. “Now it’s over, behind us…tomorrow, it’s different. Forget about last night, work hard. Do not think about last night, it’s over. Now we practice hard and work for tomorrow.”
Karl Stewart, Janis Sprukts and [...]

Tonight, the Rochester Americans and Toronto Marlies face off at 7:05pm EST at Blue Cross Arena. This will be the second of eight games between the two North Division teams.

Practice 11-18-2008: We Have A Veteran That Needs To Get On The Ice
Why in the world isn’t Jason Cipolla on the ice for the Amerks? I watch him practice at least twice a week with the boys and I always wonder why he doesn’t still play.
He is barely older then Rory Fitzpatrick and it’s time to suit up. When he is doing skating drills with players, he [...]
Gameday 11-10-2008: Another Shot At the Moose
Karl Stewart is out on the ice taking some shots today. Not game ready though…he is in his warmup pants. I expect him to be ready for Friday’s game. But, that’s just me.
Jack Birch is here watching the team. I sure hope he doesn’t think because we played one good game on Saturday that we [...]

The Rochester Americans won only their second game of the season tonight beating the Houston Aeros by the final score of 3-2. The combined five goals were all scored in the third period. The Amerks had a three goal lead with less than three minutes remaining in the game. It got close towards the end, [...]
Gameday in Rochester vs. Manitoba Moose 11-07-2008
Another home game in Rochester tonight. The Amerks will take on the Manitoba Moose for the 3rd time this season. In their first two meetings in Manitoba, the Moose won both games 3-1 and 4-1. I would be hard pressed to find a person who doesn’t think this is going to happen again tonight. But, [...]
