HARTFORD WOLF PACK ADVANCE IN PLAYOFFS
By: Gerry Cantlon, Howlings
HARTFORD, CT - The Hartford Wolf Pack received two-point performances from Ryan Carpenter and Turner Elson, while Jake Leschyshyn added two goals. Dylan Garland was masterful, making 32 saves to eliminate the Providence Bruins in a 4-0 shutout. The Pack wins the series in four games.
The Wolf Pack now advances to play the Hershey Bears for the Atlantic Division title. The series will be a best-of-five starting next Thursday, with the first two games at The Giant Center before returning for Game 3 and, if necessary, Game 4 at the XL Center. After that, a potential Game 5 would be back at The Giant Center.
GARAND GETS AND DESERVES PRAISE
"Dylan played well in the playoffs; that's an understatement. He played with confidence. He made the big saves and moved the puck really well. He made the defenseman's job a lot easier.
"He showed a lot of composure and made big saves on the penalty kill. Dylan came ready to play," Wolf Pack Head Coach Kris Knoblauch stated.
Forward Turner Elson appreciates Garand's efforts as well. "He's a good goalie. He's young, but he wants to be out there. Hopefully, he keeps doing it and keep this ride going."
After the game, Garand was deservedly all smiles. He spoke of how well his team has played while winning 15 of their last 18 games. "This last little stretch of ours, our defense has been incredible. The D-corps and our forwards, really tracking hard and coming back to the middle. Not giving up those Grade A's (chances). It's all I can ask for, "Garand said.
Garand has grown as a goalie. "I'm trusting the process and not getting caught up in the winning, losing, and the outcome. That process is tracking the puck, focusing on things structure wise, and the outcome comes to us."
"With a rookie goalie in his first year in the American (Hockey) League, you never know what you're going to get. (Garand) enjoys the pressure," Knoblauch said.
SCARY MOMENT
Brandon Scanlin dumped the puck into the Bruins' end nine seconds into the third period. The Bruins' defenseman, Michael Callahan, went to play the puck in the corner with his back to Will Lockwood, the Pack forechecker. Lockwood hit Callahan while in a vulnerable position, but not in an overly aggressive manner. Callahan went head first into the boards and remained down. His injury required EMS to come to his aid on the ice. They put him in a neck brace and stretchered him off. Fortunately for Callahan, he did not require hospitalization.
A scrum ensued after the hit, and following a ten-minute delay to tend to Callahan, the Pack lost Lockwood for the remainder of the game. The referees assessed the Pack forward with a major for boarding and a game misconduct. The league will likely review the penalty for a possible suspension.
While Knoblauch was horrified by what happened to Callahan, he didn't believe it to be a suspendable offense.
"I feel awful, but we were told it was a shoulder-to-shoulder hit gone in awkwardly. I really don't think, based on everything people have told me there will be a suspension. It seemed like a very innocent play that went sideways, because he fell awarkedly," commented Knoblauch
The Pack did get a tremendous shorthanded chance from Will Cuylle. At 3:40, he went to his backhand on a net-front open chance but hit the post. The puck returned to him, and Bruins' goaltender, Brandon Bussi, was down and out. Cullye hit him square in the numbers.
The Pack's team defense and goaltending, which was strong all game long, shut the Bruins down the rest of the way.
WHAT PROVED TO BE THE GAME-WINNER
The Wolf Pack gave the lower bowl sellout crowd white towels, and the waving gave a whiteout feel early in the game.
Upon entering the Bruin's zone, Carpenter wrapped the puck around the boards. Didier was unable to control it at the left side half-boards. Lauri Pajuniemi swept in to take the puck from him and went behind the net, where he fed Carpenter back now on the right since half boards. Carpenter took it and found Elson, who found open space between Callahan and forward John Beecher in front of the net. Elson put it on the net to Bussi's left and took a couple more whacks at it with the puck still loose. Finally, the puck found space between Bussi and the post, and Elson gave the Pack the 1-0 lead with what proved to be the game-winner at 3:48 of the first period.
KUDOS TO ELSON AND THE CROWD
"The crowd was great tonight. It was good to get the first goal. It was a tricky goal. I was blacking out during the celebration," Elson laughed. "It was a fun series. We battled hard. We did a very good job tracking back pucks. That was the best (team) defense we had all year. Forwards were coming back, and defenseman were using their sticks well to block shots and used their (bodies) to hit. They did everything they could."
"That was a big goal. To get the first goal of the game and get the crowd going into it early. It was a good play. It was good for him to score too. He's been up and down the lineup. He's played with Karl (Henriksson) and Bobby (Trivigno). This is one of the best games I've seen. We got contributions wherever they were slotted," said Knoblauch
WOLF PACK MAKE IT 2-0 IN THE SECOND PERIOD
The Wolf Pack scored their second goal early in the second frame.
Lockwood sent Tim Gettinger off a rush up ice, got inside position, put a shot on net off the right wing, and Bussi made the save but couldn't get to the rebound.
Jake Leschyshyn was trailing the play and chipped the loose biscuit into the air. The puck went over Bussi and into the net. The Bruins protested and called for a review claiming the puck had come off its moorings and was elevated. Had that been the case, it would have negated the goal. However, after a short review by the referees, the call on the ice stood, and the call was a good goal. It was Leschyshyn's first goal of the postseason and came at 4:49.
"That was a big goal. Lockwood won the one-on-one battle, set the whole play (in motion). We won the race down (by Gettinger). That second goal helped our momentum getting that second goal," said Knoblauch.
A cheap hit from behind on Bobby Trivigno by Shane Bowers, a former Hockey East opponent, set off a minor skirmish.
Wyatt Kalynuk and Nick Wolff exchanged pleasantries as the period expired.
PACK MAKE IT 3-0
The Wolf Pack extended the lead getting the all-important third goal.
Ty Emberson at the right found Jonny Brodzinski on the left, and he fired it back right side found Ryan Carpenter but still had enough open net to fire in his second of the playoff at 15:23, setting off the" we want pizza" chants once again.
"We put that line together and we got something from them," said Knoblauch.
BLAKE HILLMAN
Hillman, a member of the Bruins last season, was inserted into the lineup for Adam Clendening, who the AHL suspended for three games for his Game 3 hit on Fabian Lysell. It's speculated the hit from Clendening concussed Lysell, and he did not play.
Overall, Hillman had a strong night. He had one PK shift with a blocked shot, took out an opponent, and tracked down and cleared the puck.
"It was a very tough decision to take Hillman out for game 3. He was playing so well in the playoffs, but when Libor (Hájek) returned, we had to take somebody out.
"Blake, unfortunately, has been that guy this season. Talk about a guy stepping up when he was needed. For about three months, he didn't play a game as a defenseman.
"Then, at the end of the (regular) season, he stepped up the last two season games when we knew we were going to be losing Libor, and we needed him. He has been playing well and has been good again.
Hillman was an exceptional teammate in 2022-23, as he even took a spell at left wing during the regular season when the team was shorthanded.
KNOBLAUCH MAGNANIMOUS IN VICTORY
"That's a good team over there. Ryan (Moungel) has had his team at or near the top all year. We were gonna be challenged, but our team has been playing well, especially our defensive play. Our breakdowns and there are gonna be some Dylan truly stepped up. Even in the game where they got four on him, he played very well, and he was so good in the other games too."

NOTES:
Clendening sat for this game and will miss the first two games of the next series with Hershey.
Libor Hájek was paired with Wyatt Kalynuk. Hillman was paired with Scanlin.
Knoblauch changed three of his four lines. He brought Jonny Brodzinski to the first line and sent Trivigno back to the fourth line with Henriksson. Leschyshyn was put between Gettinger and Lockwood. The only line to stay intact was Anton Blidh-Tanner Fritz-Pajuniemi.
With Marc MacLaughlin (upper body) injured, Jakub Lauko took his spot in the lineup.
Providence got back their valuable pivot, Chris Wagner, after the birth of his daughter on Friday afternoon.
Ex-Pack Vinni Lettieri has been nursing a lower-body injury suffered in Boston late in the season. As a result, complications have arisen, and he was not a factor in the series.
Hershey scored the last six goals and eliminated Charlotte 6-2 last night.
The return of Louie Domingue allowed the Wolf Pack to reassign Parker Gahagen back to the Jacksonville Icemen (ECHL) yesterday.
PLAYER MOVEMENT
Filip Lindberg, a former collegiate teammate of the Wolf Pack's Zac Jones and Trivigno, becomes the sixth AHL'er to sign on the dotted line and the second player for Wilkes-Barre/Scranton to head back to Europe. More still to come.
A NEW D3 COLLEGE TEAM COMING SOON
Hockey movement on the Division III front as a new program will commence in Dallas, PA, a suburb of the Wilkes-Barre.
The UCHC conference has announced it will expand its men's membership to 12, with Misericordia University joining the league in 2024-25.
Misericordia University Cougars will become the newest member of the UCHC conference and have an instant rivalry with Wilkes University.
The Cougars will play and practice at the Toyota SportsPlex in nearby Wilkes-Barre with fellow UCHC rival Wilkes University. The facility is the practice home of the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins, the AHL affiliate of the Pittsburgh Penguins.
In addition to the Toyota SportsPlex, the team will also have the opportunity to practice at Casey Plaza at Mohegan Sun Arena in Wilkes-Barre Township. This 8,300-seat venue is the home of the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins.
UNIVERSITY OF NEW HAVEN
Several sources revealed the University of New Haven is going D1 in all sports. The University has decided to shelve plans to revive the hockey program at either DIII or DI for now. They will continue to have a Men's club hockey team playing D3 in the CHF.
The last NCAA hockey team was Division II in the ECAC North in 1982-83.
Its two most famous hockey graduates are Dean Lombardi, who spent 35 years in the NHL and was the former GM of the Los Angeles Kings. He is s a senior adviser with the Philadelphia Flyers for the last five years. The other alumnist is Jay Leach, a former AHL head coach with the Springfield Indians in the early 1990s and an assistant to the late Red Gendron (Assistant at Yale) at Maine (HE) until he retired.
BENTLEY COACHING CHANGE
At the Division I level, Ryan Soderquist is, out at Bentley College as head coach after one year at the Division I level. Soderquist spent 21 years at Bentley. The school has announced he will leave the program on June 30, and they have begun searching for a new coach.
In Soderquist's 21st season behind the bench at his alma mater, the Falcons finished 11-21-2 overall (8-16-2 Atlantic Hockey).
He was a three-time Coach of the Year (Atlantic Hockey, 2009 and 2012, MAAC, 2003). Soderquist is the winningest coach in program history with 277 career victories. He is one of just 18 active NCAA coaches to have surpassed the 250-win milestone.
Overall, Soderquist's overall record is 277-377-85. Of his 21 seasons, just six teams were at or above the .500 mark.
ANDY BRANDT
Wisconsin assistant coach Andy Brandt has been named the new head coach and general manager of the USHL's Madison Capitols.
Brandt takes over the franchise after spending one season behind the Badgers bench as an assistant coach.
Brandt played for Wisconsin's 2006 NCAA championship team before starting a professional playing and coaching career.
As a Badger, Brandt skated from 2003 to 2007 and scored five goals and 14 points in 130 games played. He was voted the Jim Santulli 7th Man Award winner by Badger fans for both the 2004-05 and 2006-07 seasons.
Brandt joins a Madison organization led by Andrew Joudrey, the team president for the last four years. He is an ex-Springfield Falcon and a former Badger teammate of Brandt's, including the 2006 NCAA title championship-winning team. The Capitols ownership group includes former Badgers Ryan Suter and Tom Sagissor.
Brandt will also take over for former Badger Tom Gilbert, a 10-year NHL veteran of over 600 games. He finished the 2022-23 season as interim head coach and general manager of the Capitols, like Joudrey, an All-American and a 2006 NCAA champion teammate of Brandt's.
A 2017 Wisconsin graduate, Luke Regner is returning to Madison as the men's Director of Hockey Operations.

i think it has to be said that when anthony sanfilippo thinks you’re being a fucking asshole about your goalie in public, you’re being a fucking asshole about your goalie in public.
specifically:
There’s no doubt that this approach can work, but the coach needs to read the room before he employs it. And here’s where I don’t think Vigneault has read the Flyers room correctly.
Because I think they despise him for it.
He’s not the first coach the players don’t like, nor will be the last. Coaches aren’t hired to come in and make friends with the players. It’s why John Stevens, an excellent hockey mind and really good assistant coach, has never been able to make it as a head coach at the highest level.
Some guys just aren’t cut out to be the hammer. Vigneault is. Like this quote after he pulled Hart because “I didn’t think he played well” after allowing three first period goals in a game against the Sabres in mid-March:
“I believe he has to battle a little bit harder in goal at this time. I’m confident that he’ll work with (goalie coach) Kim (Dillabaugh) and try and get his game where it needs to be so that our team will have a chance in every game.”
But where Vigneault may have pushed the envelope with his assessment of Hart a little too far, is in his last three starts, all of which have been varying degrees of good.
In the 4-2 loss to Boston Tuesday, a game in which Hart played well, but didn’t make the spectacular stop to save the game on Brad Marchand’s shorthanded goal, rather than say he sees progress with Hart’s return, Vigneault continued to be stoic about Hart.
“Carter’s a young goaltender playing a real tough position and he’s trying his best.”
Then, after Thursday’s shootout loss to the Islanders, where Hart looked superb, especially after New York built an early 2-0 lead, Vigneault still wouldn’t give him much credit.
At first he dismissed the notion of Hart’s progression by qualifying that Hart didn’t face too many shots. Granted he was only credited with 21 saves, but it’s not like he only saw 13 shots the entire game. Here was the entire quote:
“He didn’t get a lot of work, but he had a couple of big saves to make and he did make them.”
That’s it. Now, in a normal season, you wouldn’t make much of a short answer. They happen sometimes in press conferences. But in this year, when he’s had so much more to say about the goalie in the negative, it’s hard to just dismiss this as a quick answer.
It’s so much more than that.
The Flyers aren’t quitting. It’s obvious by their play in the last four games, even if it still amounts to missing the playoffs, this team hasn’t thrown in the towel.
But there’s a sense that they aren’t too fond of how Vigneault is pushing Hart. It’s no secret that AV had Hall of Fame goalies in Vancouver (Roberto Luongo) and New York (Henrik Lundqvist), which allowed for his systems to flourish, and he wants to push Hart to reach that echelon while still coaching the team.
Maybe there’s a different way to do it. Maybe the team needs to hear more positivity about a young goalie whose work ethic has never waned, even during his unexpected struggles this season. Hart works as hard at his craft as anyone in the sport, and remained diligent even during the roughest patch of his hockey life.
Because when you flash back to Shayne Gostisbehere’s quote about how the team is playing in front of their goalies, it now jumps out at you as it being a way to defend Hart (and to a lesser extent Elliott) and shoulder some blame, since Vigneault is the anti-Andy Reid in his press conferences and hardly ever – if at all – falls on the sword for his players.
“It’s straight not good enough right now. We’re letting guys fucking absolutely beat us up in front of the net and it makes our goaltenders look like absolute shit and it’s not fair. We have to be better as a team.”
That was a refreshingly honest statement from Ghost, but also probably an example of how sometimes shouldering responsibility is better received in the locker room than cold and vapid responses.
Some might say the 2021 athlete needs to grow a pair if they can’t handle criticism by the coach. And I tend to agree. But at the same time, the modern day athlete doesn’t just need to adjust to the old school coach. Sometimes the old school coach needs to coalesce a little bit and adjust to the modern day athlete too.
#flyers#alain vigneault#carter hart#seriously like.............. this dude's old school af and even he sees it lmao

I don't know if I can get behind firing Sully, like yes he has lost the last three post-seasons, but is that his fault when goal-tending let him down as well as the defense (in previous years). I understand maybe they should move on from Sully, but until they start sucking in the regular season, maybe wait? Like yeah, I thought he should of taken Jarry out after the 3 or 4th goal, but there was no guarantee that Lagace would have been better or the Pens would of have been able to score to win
I get what you're saying, I do and I'm not going to argue with your very valid points. However hear me out, and feel free to continue this conversation!
At what point is not pulling a shaky goaltender stubbornness? During the 2019-20 season and the Pandemic Play-Ins the fan base was just as confused and flabbergasted at his lack of both line changes and goaltending changes. When Matt Murray was struggling against Montreal we wanted our All-Star Caliber Netminder(Jarry) in net instead. We wanted Jarry to start after his amazing season and how good he looked during the Inter-Squad Scrims. He played the final game of our Play-In round after it became clear Murray wasn't working.
This is becoming a pattern.
Legacé was a cold goaltender and I had been saying during the regular season while we were playing DeSmith and Jarry that we should've been rotating in D'Orio and Legacé to get them the play time. I was very clear that I didn't think putting Legacé in as a starter during the playoffs was the correct move, but Sullivan not pulling Jarry says more (imo) about what Sullivan thinks should be working rather than what is. Sullivan prides himself and this team on its ability to shift and adapt to what's happening. My problem is: while players are able to adapt to a certain point without intervention it is Sullivan's job to help move the lines and make the difficult decisions of what pieces to move and when.
I think Sullivan has done brilliantly in the regular seasons after his back to back cup runs. I think part of that is the forced diversity in the locker room and lines due to inconsistencies in the player base. Sullivan has shown me in the past few post-seasons that the diversity and depth in the locker room that can be used in the post season won't be, because to me it seems if it doesn't fit what he thinks should work he won't use it.

OH MY GOD HOW DID THE FLIRTING WITH THE OPPOSING CAPTAIN GO ASDGDKSKS MY SOULL
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
okay, so. Remy begs Logan to try flirting with the opposition for weeks, and although Logan strongly protests (because He Has No Interest In Doing That, Thanks), he finally caves when Remy’s birthday comes around and Remy – who has enough money to buy whatever he wants – says that the greatest gift Logan could offer is to “try it One Time, please.”
Logan asks why Remy wants to see him do this so badly, and Remy responds with “let’s just call it a scientific curiosity,” – which. Logan knows that Remy’s only saying that to play to his sensitivities, but he can’t deny that he’s… intrigued with the prospect when Remy puts it that way.
still. this is a ridiculous request, and although Logan has done a number of ridiculous things (and would do innumerable more) in order to please his big goalie brother backup goaltender, he figures that he’ll put up one last argument, even if this entire conversation is a losing battle
“i wouldn’t even know what to say or how to say it,” Logan objects, because it’s true. he knows how to turn his teammates own playful flirtations back on them – has been known to turn a phrase in the occasional rap competition or two – but the initiation of coquetry has never been his forte. he tends to be too reserved for that. too off-putting and aloof. “unless your goal is to make the opposing captain incredibly uncomfortable, i’d recommend that you ask someone else.”
the idea of Roman flirting with the other captain briefly crosses his mind, and although it makes something unpleasant curl tight in his stomach, Logan stomps that feeling down to put his name into consideration: “Roman would be an adequate substitute.”
Remy tilts down his sunglasses to pin Logan with an expression that he has no idea how to classify, and Logan does his level best to remain entirely unmoved. after a few seconds, Remy finally pushes his sunglasses back into their rightful place, apparently having found whatever he was looking for.
“you’re more charming than you give yourself credit for, babe,” he says, and although Logan’s ready to disagree, Remy leaves him no chance. “but if you’re that worried about it, i can give you a couple of pointers.”
“oh, no,” Logan says.
“oh, yes,” Remy replies. he grins, and it’s all teeth. “so. here’s what you’re gonna do…”
—
the Friday afternoon game comes, the team hits the ice for warm-ups, and although Logan had figured that he would be nervous at this point, he’s honestly more resigned (in a quiet, tired sort of way) instead.
Remy spots the other teams captain juggling the puck on his own near the red line, and he gently nudges Logan’s with an elbow. taps him on a blocker with his stick a couple of times with a cheeky “you’re up, girl. love you,” before gently pushing him on his way.
Logan turns back just long enough to bite out “this pick-up line still doesn’t make any sense” – because it really, really doesn’t – but he obediently skates off from there, ready to get this over with and maybe, (just maybe), a little curious for the outcome.
he slows to a stop behind the captain. glances at the name and number on the back of his jersey (Carson, #91) and hesitates for a moment before steeling his resolve.
“hey, Carson” Logan calls, just loud enough to be heard over the general clatter of warm-ups. the captain turns on a reflex, dropping his puck in the process, and Logan prepares for the worst. “you should come on over to our side of the ice. help me stretch.”
Logan raises an eyebrow, just like instructed. bites his lip and waits for… something: for the captain to skate away. say something cruel. react.
(needless to say, Carson does one of those things)
“excuse me?” he sputters. he looks behind him as though checking for some other Carson that Logan could have been speaking to before whipping his head back around to stare at Logan with wide, green eyes. “i – what?”
and okay, Logan thinks. okay, maybe Remy was onto something here
“oh, you heard me,” Logan drawls. he draws closer, stops about three feet out from the opposing captain. an intimate radius, Remy had said, but not without some space. “you could show me some moves. really warm me up, you know?”
#91 flushes. gives Logan the once-over, head-to-toe, and that’s it. according to Remy, that’s the cue.
Logan closes the space between them. stops nearly chest to chest with #91 so that he can murmur the final line for his ears alone.
“forget the game,” Logan says, voice low, sultry. just like Remy taught him. “let’s go back to your place, and i’ll let you score on me all night long.”
Logan pulls away then, gently pushes off of #91′s chest and skates backwards until he’s just outside of his personal space. and Logan isn’t even entirely sure what he just said means, but he can’t deny that Remy was correct in assuming that it would be effective, because it was. it was very effective, in fact. more effective than Logan was ready for it to be.
#91′s flush gives way to a full-on blush, red tinting his cheeks, his neck, the tips of his ears. he opens his mouth. closes it. opens it again to try to speak, but all he gets out it a high-pitched wheeze.
and Logan, for a moment, has no idea what to do. does he say something else? does he just leave? he had figured that the opposing captain would be hostile, Remy didn’t tell him what to do if it worked.
but, apparently, Remy had planned for that. he must have, if what happens next is any indication. because #91 blushes to his toes, lets out a sound like he’s becoming a tea kettle, and before Logan can come to a decision on what he should do, Remy is there, hand on Logan’s elbow, chin on Logan’s shoulder.
“it’s your turn in net, Lo,” Remy says. he gives the opposing captain a look-over, lips tilting up into a lazy smile.
“he is a cute one, isn’t he?” he asks – to Logan or to #91, Logan can’t tell.
then, he’s turning Logan around by the shoulders and pushing him back towards their goal
—
“i’m pretty sure you turned him. oh my god, did you see his face?”
“sure, rem.”
“oh, don’t act like you didn’t notice. he couldn’t even go near the net without tripping over his own skates! babe, you got him so good.”
“fine. it is possible that i may have had some effect on his playing. but maybe he was just having an off day.”
“he literally missed the puck going for a slapshot. like. had it settled down right in front of him and totally fanned on it. how did you manage that?”
“…i may or may not have winked at him when i saw him standing alone on the play. to satisfy my scientific curiosity.”
“babe”
#hockey au#hockey hcs#suggestive#remy belmonte#logan crofter#Logan: *is hot*#Remy: okay now we're going to use this for evil#they cant use Roman because then how is Remy supposed to make Roman jealous#hes trying to wingman here!!
