When Was the Last Time The Amerks…

When Was the Last Time The Amerks…

Here’s some “fun facts” I guess you could call them about the last time certain things were achieved by or against the Rochester Americans.  A few items that stick out more than others: The last Amerk to get a hat-trick at Blue Cross arena was Stefan Meyer on December 16, 2006, nearly two years ago.  [...]

Help! I Need Somebody…Not Just Anybody…

Help! I Need Somebody…Not Just Anybody…

During last night’s game, a familiar Beatles’ tune was played after one of the Moose’ goals.  As “Help!” was playing I was laughing a little to myself, thinking about how badly we really need some help.  And no, it can’t just be from anybody…we need huge changes.
This topic has already been discussed a million times this [...]

Skate With The Players 11-04-2008

My husband and I took our son to the annual Season Ticket Holder’s Skate with the Players tonight at Blue Cross Arena.  Last year I had a lot of fun at this event, but my son was just a little too young and a lot too shy to go with us.  I personally think this [...]

After a 5-2 loss to the Toronto Marlies last night, the Amerks are back on the ice preparing for their second game of the weekend tonight against the Hamilton Bulldogs.  The Bulldogs are hot right now, and if the Amerks think they are going to get a win out of them they need to play [...]

Practice 10-30-2008

The team is working in smaller groups today.  Right now half the team is sitting on the bench while the other half practices puck movement.  It is very informative.  They are really getting some good passing and scoring going on.  Kenndal McArdle, once again, can stick the puck anywhere he wants to in the net.  [...]

Collect Amerk Player Photo’s
