Apr 8, 2022TONIGHT'S GAME OVERVIEW
The Rochester Americans (32-26-5-3) continue their five-game road swing tonight as they wrap up their two-game set against the Laval Rocket (32-23-3-2) at 7:00 p.m. All the action from Place Bell will be carried live on The Sports Leader 95.7FM/950 AM The Fan Rochester as well as AHLTV.
With two wins in their last four games, the Amerks have earned points in eight of their last 11 and are 4-3-2-1 over their last 10 games. The Rocket, meanwhile, enter tonight with points in 24 of their first 31 games on home ice and boast a 6-2-0-2 record in their previous 10 games overall.
HEAD-TO-HEAD SERIES SNAPSHOT
Tonight’s contest is the seventh of eight meetings between the North Division rivals and the second of a two-game set after Laval took a 6-2 on Wednesday night. The loss was Rochester’s third straight this season against the Rocket after the Amerks claimed the first three meetings of the season series.
Rochester enters tonight showing a 16-6-0 all-time record against Laval. Prior to suffering three consecutive losses against the Rocket, the Amerks had won eight straight and 12 of the previous 13 games against the Laval dating back to the start of the 2017-18 campaign.
The Amerks have won four of the last five and are 9-2-0-0 in their previous 11 visits to Laval dating back to the start of 2017-18 season.
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 10 games remaining on the schedule, show at least 32 wins.
The Amerks sit in six place in the Division with a .545 points percentage through 66 games this season. The top five teams in the North Division are guaranteed to clinch a playoff spot.
Of Rochester’s final 10 games this season, eight will be played against North Division opponents, which includes two against the Cleveland Monsters and two opposite the league-leading Utica Comets.
With 15 points (5+10) over his last 10 games, including four three-point efforts in that span, Jack Quinn is second among all AHL rookies with 23 goals and ranks fourth in points (50) while his team-high eight power-play goals are also third-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 223 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 among all Amerks in points with 58 and 50, respectively.
With six points last weekend in Cleveland, which included five goals, Peterka became the third different Amerk this season and seventh first-year player in the league to reach the 20-goal mark.
Meanwhile, Quinn, who has six points (2+4) in his last five games, became 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 6-0-0-0 this season when both players record multi-point outings in the same contest. The Amerks are 13-1-1-0 when Quinn produces at least two points and show a 12-3-0-0 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 455 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 54-for-236 with a 22.9% conversion rate that is currently fifth-best in the AHL. The Amerks’ 54 goals on the man-advantage are most among all North Division teams and are eight shy of the AHL lead behind Ontario.
The Amerks have scored at least one power-play goal in 35 of their first 66 games this season and have registered multiple power-play tallies in 13 overall, including a season-high four goals in the 7-3 win over Hershey back on Nov. 26.
PETERKA FLOURISHING IN SECOND HALF
Coming off his three-goal outing against Cleveland this past Friday, 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 38 points (18+20) in 37 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 193 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 13 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 12-3-0-0 this season when Peterka registers a multi-point game, including 6-0-0-0 on home ice.
With a team-high 58 points (22+36) through 60 games, Peterka needs two points to become 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 36 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 eight of their remaining 10 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 43-41-11 in 95 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 last Friday night against Cleveland while Arttu Ruotsalainen (17), Brett Murray (15) and Sean Malone (15) are 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 14 multi-point performances this year. More impressively, the Amerks are a near-perfect 13-1-1-0 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 four AHL rookies with at least eight power-play goals this season.
MERSCH LEADING BY EXAMPLE
Mersch became just the second Amerk this season to reach the 40-point with his 20th goal of the season against Cleveland on March 18. In doing so, he reached the mark for the fifth time in his eight-year pro career.
Mersch has totaled 35 points (17+18) and six multi-point efforts over his last 41 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 Wednesday, equaling the output when he was a member of the Ontario Reign in the 2015-16 season. He’s also just two points away from reaching the 50-point mark for the first time in his career.
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 16 of his 19 appearances this season, Dell has faced 30 or more shots, including seven straight and nine of his last 10 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+26), 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 six 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 30 games. Additionally, he has totaled 122 points (36+86) over his last 176 AHL contests dating back to the 2018-19 campaign.
Laaksonen, who shows five points (1+4) over his last 10 games coming into tonight, also ranks fourth among defensemen with 20 power-play assists, as all but six of his 26 assists this season have come on the man-advantage. Equally as impressive, 24 of his 31 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 178 points (67+111) through Rochester’s first 66 games this season.
Peterka’s torrid start to the second half of the year has him leading all rookies in points (58), third in assists (36) and fourth in goals (22) and assists (36) in 60 games this season.
Quinn, the Buffalo Sabres’ eighth overall pick in 2020, is second among all first-year players with 23 goals and ranks fourth in points (50) despite only appearing in 35 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 17 games due to injury, Biro is still tied for 14th in scoring amongst all rookies with 36 points (9+27) in 40 games.
Weissbach has notched 14 points (4+10) in his last 23 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.
MARCH MADNESS FOR RUOTSALAINEN
The American Hockey League announced on Friday that Rochester Americans forward Arttu Ruotsalainen has been named the AHL Player of the Month for March.
Ruotsalainen, the AHL Player of the Month, scored eight goals and added 10 assists for 18 points in 13 games for Rochester during March.
Ruotsalainen began the month with back-to-back two-goal efforts, on Mar. 2 vs. Syracuse and as part of a three-point night in a 3-2 overtime victory on Mar. 4 at Belleville. He tallied two assists on Mar. 9 vs. Laval, and then authored a seven-game scoring streak that began with an assist on the game-winning goal in a 3-2 decision at Utica on Mar. 12. Ruotsalainen notched a goal and an assist in the Amerks’ 6-5 overtime win vs. Cleveland on Mar. 19, and posted his fifth multi-point game of the month with a goal and two assists against Bridgeport on Mar. 27.
Ruotsalainen has registered 16 goals and 26 assists for 42 points in 44 games for Rochester this season, while adding two goals and two assists in 18 NHL games with the Buffalo Sabres. A 24-year-old native of Oulu, Finland, Ruotsalainen signed as a free agent with Buffalo on May 8, 2019, and joined the organization last season after having played with Assat Pori and Ilves Tampere in Finland’s SM-liiga. Over two North American seasons, he has 21 goals and 34 assists in 57 games with the Amerks, along with seven goals and three assists in 35 contests with the Sabres
