WATCH: TONIGHT'S FACE-OFF FIRST LOOK
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 six games remaining on the schedule, show at least 34 wins.
The Amerks sit in sixth place in the Division with a .550 points percentage through 70 games this season. The top five teams in the North Division are guaranteed to clinch a playoff spot.
Of Rochester’s final six games this season, four will be played against North Division opponents, which includes two against the Cleveland Monsters and two opposite the league-leading Utica Comets.
With 21 points (7+14) over his last 14 games, including five three-point efforts in that span, Jack Quinn is second among all AHL rookies with 25 goals and ranks third in points (56) while his team-high 10 power-play goals are also second-most among all rookies.
Rochester has the AHL’s seventh-best offense. Averaging under four goals per game, the Amerks have scored the second-most goals in the AHL with 237 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 56 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 has recorded 12 points (4+8) in his last nine 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 15-1-1-0 when Quinn produces at least two points and show a 13-3-0-0 record when Peterka has more than one point.
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 459 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.
POWER-PLAY PROFICIENCY
Rochester’s power-play has gone 61-for-258 with a 23.6% conversion rate that is currently third-best in the AHL. The Amerks’ 61 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 38 of their first 70 games this season and have registered multiple power-play tallies in 15 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.
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 41 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 204 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 16 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 64 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 weekend, 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 each of their remaining six 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 45-42-12 in 99 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 (17), Brett Murray (15) are all closing in on the milestone as well.
BIRO BLAZES HIS WAY TO NHL
Rookie forward Brandon Biro, who returned from a 19-game injury absence on April 12 against Laval, has been one of the team’s most consistent and impressive point-getters with 33 points (10+23) over his last 31 games dating back to Nov. 27. He has nine multi-point efforts in 24 games over that span, including five straight to open the month of February, subsequently prompting a well-deserved NHL recall by the Buffalo Sabres.
Biro became the eighth different forward and 14th player overall this season to appear in at least one game with the Sabres and Amerks after making his NHL debut against the Montreal Canadiens on Feb. 23. The Alberta native took 17 shifts over 13:30 of ice-time while skating on a line alongside Mark Jankowski and former Amerk Rasmus Asplund.
He’s also the second undrafted player in the organization this season to make his NHL debut for Buffalo, joining defenseman Ethan Prow, and the fifth different Amerk to skate in their first NHL game with the Sabres.
Biro’s 28 assists are tied for ninth-most among all first-year players. He’s also 14th in rookie scoring with 38 points in 42 games and tied for eighth with six power-play goals.
After producing just five assists in his first seven games, the former Penn State standout has not gone more than two straight games without a point since Nov. 27.
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 nine times all season and hasn’t gone more than two games without recording a point. He has recorded 17 multi-point performances this year. More impressively, the Amerks are a near-perfect 15-1-1-0 this season when Quinn registers a multi-point game, including 10-0-1-0 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 38 points (17+21) and seven multi-point efforts over his last 45 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 on April 6 at Laval, 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 (10+33) and Oskari Laaksonen (5+27), who enter the weekend third and tied for 20th 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 33 assists, which are six more than Laaksonen. His 10 goals are tied for sixth-most by a defenseman this season and only two off the league lead. With his third-period assist last night, Prow has recorded 25 points (6+19) over his last 34 games. Additionally, he has totaled 124 points (37+87) over his last 179 AHL contests dating back to the 2018-19 campaign.
Laaksonen, who shows six points (1+5) over his last 14 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 192 points (74+118) through Rochester’s first 70 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 64 games this season.
Quinn, the Buffalo Sabres’ eighth overall pick in 2020, is second among all first-year players with 25 goals and ranks third in points (56) despite only appearing in 39 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.
With two points (1+1) in two games since in his return to the lineup on Wednesday, Biro is tied for 14th in scoring amongst all rookies with 38 points (10+28) in 42 games.
Weissbach has notched 16 points (6+10) in his last 27 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 33 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 17 goals and 34 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 entered last night riding a career-long 11-game point streak dating back to Dec. 18 -- the longest of any Amerk this season -- totaling nine goals and five assists for 14 points over that span. Malone is the first Amerk to produce a point in 11 straight games since Milan Bartovic tallied an 11-game point streak (10+5) from Dec. 27 to Feb. 6 during the 2003-04 campaign.
Last Saturday against Belleville, Malone appeared in his 200th game as an Amerk and needs just one more point 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 202 games, the Malone has registered 45 goals and 54 assists for 99 points since the start of the 2017-18 season.
WORKING OVERTIME
The 4-3 overtime win this past Wednesday against Laval was Rochester’s 18th game this season - and 11th since Feb. 11 - that went beyond regulation for the Amerks.
The Amerks are 7-6 in overtime but show just a 2-3 mark in shootouts.
Only three more teams have played more overtime games than the Amerks.
Rochester tied an AHL record with 29 overtime games in 2017-18.
