VIEW FROM ROCHESTER
Rochester remains in the thick of what is clearly shaping up to be a very tight race to the finish among its fellow North Division opponents. Six teams, including the Amerks, who have only eight games remaining on the schedule, show at least 33 wins.
The Amerks sit in fifth place in the Division with a .551 points percentage through 68 games this season. The top five teams in the North Division are guaranteed to clinch a playoff spot.
Of Rochester’s final eight games this season, six will be played against North Division opponents, which includes two against the Cleveland Monsters and two opposite the league-leading Utica Comets.
With 19 points (7+12) over his last 12 games, including five three-point efforts in that span, Jack Quinn is second among all AHL rookies with 25 goals and ranks fourth in points (54) while his team-high 10 power-play goals are also second-most among all rookies.
Rochester has the AHL’s fifth-best offense. Averaging under four goals per game, the Amerks have scored the second-most goals in the AHL with 232 and have most in the North Division.

DYNAMIC DUO
Rookie forwards JJ Peterka and Jack Quinn continue to find the scoresheet on almost a nightly basis as the duo rank first and second on the team in scoring with 62 and 54 points, respectively.
With 10 points to start the final month of the regular season, which includes three multi-goal efforts, Peterka became the first Amerk this season and the lone AHL rookie to reach the 60-point mark.
Quinn, meanwhile, who also has recorded 10 points (4+6) in his last seven games, became just the second Rochester skater and only the fourth AHL rookie to reach the 50-point plateau.
This season marks the first time in nearly 30 years the Amerks have had multiple rookies record more than 50 points in the same season since 1992-93 when the club had five: Todd Simon (93), Scott Thomas (59), Doug MacDonald (58), Jozef Cierny (54) and Mike McLaughin (54).
Rochester is a perfect 7-0-0-0 this season when both players record multi-point outings in the same contest. The Amerks are 14-1-1-0 when Quinn produces at least two points and show a 13-3-0-0 record when Peterka has more than one point.
POWER-PLAY PROFICIENCY
Rochester’s power-play has gone 58-for-245 with a 23.7% conversion rate that is currently fourth-best in the AHL. The Amerks’ 58 goals on the man-advantage are most among all North Division teams and are five shy of the AHL lead behind Ontario.
The Amerks have scored at least one power-play goal in 36 of their first 68 games this season and have registered multiple power-play tallies in 14 overall, including a season-high four goals in the 7-3 win over Hershey back on Nov. 26 and in the 6-2 victory against Belleville on April 9.
AMERKS BOLSTER BLUELINE AT AHL TRADE DEADLINE
The Amerks made only one move at the AHL’s trade deadline, but it was one that will undoubtedly positively impact the team in its pursuit of clinching a playoff spot for the second time in four years.
Rochester acquired veteran defenseman Mark Alt from the San Jose Barracuda in exchange for forward Mason Jobst.
Prior to making his Amerks debut against Utica on March 30, Alt, 30, appeared in 46 games with the Barracuda this season, tallying eight points on three goals and five assists.
Alt, who earned his first point as an Amerk with an assist at Cleveland on April 1, is a veteran of 457 AHL games with San Jose, Ontario, Colorado, Lehigh Valley/Adirondack and now Rochester, totaling 126 points (33+93) while also appearing in 20 NHL contests with Los Angeles, Colorado and Philadelphia.
Prior to turning pro, the 6-foot-4, 201-pound blueliner played three seasons at the University of Minnesota, where he amassed 39 points (7+32) in 117 career games with the Gophers.
PETERKA FLOURISHING IN SECOND HALF
Coming off his three-goal outing against Cleveland to kick-off the month of April, forward JJ Peterka became the third Amerk this season and just the seventh AHL rookie to reach the 20-goal mark.
After scoring just four times through the first three months of the season, Peterka has notched 42 points (20+22) in 39 games to begin 2022, including goals in back-to-back games on five different occasions over that span.
Peterka, who was taken 34th overall in the 2020 NHL Draft by the Sabres, leads all AHL rookies and is fifth in the AHL with 197 shots on goal. He’s only gone two games all season without recording at least one shot on goal.
Peterka made his highly anticipated NHL debut on Dec. 28 as Buffalo hosted New Jersey before visiting the New York Islanders the very next day. Following his return to the Amerks, he totaled five points on two goals and three assists in two games before being honored as the AHL’s Rookie of the Month of the Week for the period ending Jan. 2, 2022.
Peterka has been held scoreless just 14 times since Dec. 19 and hasn’t gone more than two games without recording a point during that same span. More impressively, the Amerks are 13-3-0-0 this season when Peterka registers a multi-point game, including 6-0-0-0 on home ice.
With a team-high 62 points (24+38) through 62 games, Peterka is the first Amerks rookie to reach the 60-point mark since Thomas Vanek had 68 points (42+26) in 74 games during the 2004-05 season. Peterka also leads the team and is ninth in the AHL with 38 assists.
Coming into the week, he’s one of only five AHL rookies currently leading his respective team in scoring.
APPERT JOINS ELITE COMPANY
By way of a 6-5 overtime victory over the Cleveland Monsters on March 19, Seth Appert became the sixth straight head coach to reach the 30-win mark in his first full season behind the bench.
Should the Amerks win seven of their remaining eight games this season, Appert will become the first bench boss to lead his team to 40 wins in his first full season at the helm since Hall of Famer Randy Cunneyworth, who in nine seasons went on to become the winningest coach in franchise history.
Appert is 44-41-12 in 97 career games leading the Amerks dating back to the start of the 2020-21 season.
RACE TO 20
After the cancellation of the remainder of the 2019-20 season and a truncated 2020-21 campaign failed to produce a 20-goal scorer for just the fourth time in franchise history, the Amerks could potentially have several by season’s end with eight players currently with 10 or more goals.
Michael Mersch and Quinn, who both returned to the lineup on March 18 against Cleveland, both reached the mark in their first game back, despite Quinn appearing in 20 fewer games than Mersch. Peterka joined the group on April 1 against Cleveland while Arttu Ruotsalainen (18), Sean Malone (16), Brett Murray (15) are all closing in on the milestone as well.
QUINN-TESSENTIAL QUALITIES
Quinn became the first AHL player this season and just the 17th player in Amerks franchise history to score four goals in a game in the 6-5 overtime loss to Belleville on Jan. 15. More impressively, he scored all four goals consecutively, including the game-tying tally with 3.3 seconds remaining in regulation.
He’s the first Amerk to have a four-goal game since Rochester native Derek Whitmore single-handedly outscored Hamilton on Nov. 25, 2011 (5-2 W).
Playing in just his 27th game of the season, Quinn became the first Amerk to score 20 goals in the fewest number of games since Luke Adam reached the mark in 31 games during the 2013-14 campaign.
He was named the AHL’s Rookie of the Month for October after leading all first-year players with 10 points (5+5) through the first month of the regular season. In just six games to begin the season, Quinn surpassed his offensive output from his truncated 2020-21 campaign, and became the first AHL player to reach the 10-point mark this season.
Quinn has been held scoreless just eight times all season and hasn’t gone more than two games without recording a point. He has recorded 16 multi-point performances this year. More impressively, the Amerks are a near-perfect 14-1-1-0 this season when Quinn registers a multi-point game, including 9-0-1-0 on home ice.
On Nov. 12, Quinn became the first AHL rookie since Frank Vatrano in 2015-16 to score eight goals through his first 10 games of the season.
Quinn is one of only three AHL rookies with at least 10 power-play goals this season.
MERSCH LEADING BY EXAMPLE
Mersch became just the third Amerk this season to reach the 50-point mark as part of a two-assist effort at Belleville this past Saturday. In doing so, he reached the mark for the first time in his eight-year pro career.
Mersch has totaled 37 points (17+20) and seven multi-point efforts over his last 43 games dating back to Nov. 24. The Amerks captain began that stretch with a five-game goal-scoring streak, the longest of his career and the longest in the AHL this season, while his recent nine-game point streak in January surpassed his previous career-best mark of seven he set during the 2014-15 season.
Mersch also reached the 20-goal mark for the fifth time in eight years and the first time since the 2018-19 season as a member of the Texas Stars. He did so in the second-fewest number of games (47) since 2015-16 when he scored 20 in 35 games with the Ontario Reign. He finished that season with 24 goals in only 52 appearances while also appearing in 17 games with the Los Angeles Kings.
Mersch matched a career-high with his team-leading 24th goal of the season last Wednesday, equaling the output when he was a member of the Ontario Reign in the 2015-16 season.
DELL-IVERING IN THE CREASE
Goaltender Aaron Dell began his Amerks career with an impressive six straight wins through his first six starts with Rochester. Before this season, the veteran netminder had never began a season with a win in each of his first six starts at either the NHL or AHL level.
With a win against Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Feb. 9, Dell matched his career-best 7-1-0 mark when he posted one from March 20 to April 10 during the 2014-15 season with Worcester.
In 17 of his 20 appearances this season, Dell has faced 30 or more shots, including eight straight and 10 of his last 11 appearances. He posted a season-high 36 saves on Feb. 26 at Toronto and on April 2 at Cleveland.
THE BEST OFFENSE IS A GOOD DEFENSE
Rochester has two of the league’s top point-producing defensemen in Ethan Prow (9+32) and Oskari Laaksonen (5+27), who enter the weekend fifth and tied for 19th in scoring amongst all blueliners, respectively.
Prow, who reached the 40-point mark for the second time in his AHL career, is also fourth with 32 assists, which are five more than Laaksonen. His nine goals are tied for ninth-most by a defenseman this season and only three off the league lead. With an assist on Wednesday against Laval, Prow has recorded 23 points (5+18) over his last 32 games. Additionally, he has totaled 122 points (36+86) over his last 177 AHL contests dating back to the 2018-19 campaign.
Laaksonen, who shows six points (1+5) over his last 12 games coming into tonight, also ranks fourth among defensemen with 21 power-play assists, as all but six of his 27 assists this season have come on the man-advantage. Equally as impressive, 25 of his 32 points have come on the power-play.
His best performance of the season came back on Jan. 12 when he recorded a career-high four assists in the 7-6 win over Utica, including three in the first period and three of which came on the power-play. He finished two assists shy of tying the franchise record for most in a single game
FANTASTIC FOUR
The Amerks currently own four of the AHL’s top scoring rookies in JJ Peterka, Jack Quinn, Brandon Biro and Linus Weissbach, all of whom have combined for 187 points (72+115) through Rochester’s first 68 games this season.
Peterka’s torrid start to the second half of the year has him leading all rookies in points (62), tied for second in assists (38) and third in goals (24) in 62 games this season.
Quinn, the Buffalo Sabres’ eighth overall pick in 2020, is second among all first-year players with 25 goals and ranks fourth in points (54) despite only appearing in 37 games.
Quinn became the 101st AHL player this season to make his NHL debut when he took the ice against the Tampa Bay Lightning on Jan. 11. He finished with team-highs in shots (3) and shot attempts (6) while earning 16:30 of total ice time. He then returned to the Sabres a day after scoring his 18th goal of the season for Rochester and was rewarded with his first two NHL points, including a goal against Vezina Trophy winner and Stanley Cup champion Braden Holtby in the Sabres’ 5-4 loss to the Dallas Stars on Jan 20.
Despite missing the last 19 games due to injury, Biro is still tied for 17th in scoring amongst all rookies with 36 points (9+27) in 40 games.
Weissbach has notched 15 points (5+10) in his last 25 games. He finished February with 11 points (1+10) in 13 contests, including a season-high three-assist effort on Feb. 27 at Toronto to bring the month to a close.
Peterka and Quinn are the first pair of Amerks rookies taken from the same Draft class (2020) to record 50 or more points in the same season since Scott Thomas and Doug MacDonald (1989) did so in 1992-93.
MALONE MAKING UP FOR LOST TIME
After an injury-riddled season has limited him to just 31 games, Sean Malone has certainly made up for lost time in the back half of the season with the Amerks.
In just the short amount of time he’s been in the lineup, Malone has already shattered his offensive total from the 2019-20 season with Rochester. The fifth-year forward has recorded 16 goals and 33 points, both career-highs, while his 17 assists are just one away from equaling his best.
More impressively, he surpassed the 30-point mark in 30 fewer games from 2019-20 and remains on pace to score 20 goals for the first time in his pro career.
He enters tonight riding a career-long 10-game point streak dating back to Dec. 18, totaling eight goals and five assists for 13 points over that span. Malone is the first Amerk to produce a point in 10 straight games since Jamie Johnson tallied a 10-game point streak (5+10) from Jan. 10 to Feb. during the 2009-10 campaign.
Last Saturday against Belleville, Malone appeared in his 200th game as an Amerk and needs just two more points to reach the century mark in the red, white and blue. He is the 59th forward in team history to skate in 200 or more games in his career. In 200 games, the Malone has registered 44 goals and 54 assists for 98 points since the start of the 2017-18 season.
WORKING OVERTIME
The 4-3 overtime loss this past Friday at Laval was Rochester’s 17th game this season - and 10th since Feb. 11 - that went beyond regulation for the Amerks.
The Amerks are 6-6 in overtime but show just a 2-3 mark in shootouts.
Only four more teams have played more overtime games than the Amerks.
Rochester tied an AHL record with 29 overtime games in 2017-18.
OTHER AMERKS NOTABLES
Of the 16 different defensemen the Amerks have used this season, 15 have notched at least one point while 11 have recorded at least one goal. Additionally, of the 26 different forwards to appear in one game for Rochester, 19 have scored a goal and 22 have produced a point.
Over his last 43 games since the turn of the New Year, Amerks forward Arttu Ruotsalainen has tallied 45 points on 18 goals and 27 assists, a stretch which began with a three-point effort versus Hartford on Jan. 2. Ruotsalainen has also turned in a multi-point effort in 12 games over that same span, an impressive run highlighted by three consecutive two-goal games for the first time in his AHL career. He’s recorded at least one point in 16 of his last 19 outings since Feb. 27.
He was named the AHL’s Player of the Month for March has scored 10 goals and added 13 assists for 23 points in 18 games since the start of March.
Rochester is one of two teams in the Eastern Conference this season with three players who have 50 or more points. Additionally, the Amerks are one of two teams in the league to have three different rookies with at least 10 goals, 20 assists and 30 points in Peterka, Quinn and Weissbach.
