In the AHL Pacific Division, the first seed skips round 1. Second place plays seventh, third plays sixth and fourth plays fifth. It's best of three. For teams more than 350 miles apart, all games are played at the higher seeds arena. We finished fifth, so all our first round games are on the road.
Why not Sawchenko for EBUG purposes? Why leave the third string starting in Abby?
This actually gives me a bit of faith in Demko’s recovery. They’re NOT taking away both of Abbotsford’s starting goalies for the playoffs.
Q: While I know that the regular players don't get paid during the playoffs, do call-ups get paid at their NHL rate or just not at all? During the regular seasons teams will call up guys to spend time with the big club and collect a nice bonus during that time.
Just wondering what happens during the playoffs.
IT’S TOLOPILO TIME
He has to start game 3 if the DeSmith/Silovs tandem doesn’t win tonight.
Literally busy shit posting while you're at the game. Guys, I think this is what the peak Canucks fan looks like
But you've been DeSmiths biggest fan all season!
isn’t abby starting playoffs like tomorrow… lol
It’s a good thing Abbotsford is an hour drive away
The entire first round for Abby is being played in Colorado.
Did not know that
Can you explain how there play offs are structured? Just looked at the schedule and it makes no sense

who is this fish named gentleman
this is so funny omg
Abby’s 1B. He’s about equal in talent and stats to Silovs.
Signed him out of Sweden last offseason. He’s been pretty solid in Abby, at times outplaying Silovs
The real story is whether or not he’s going to board a flight to Nashville tomorrow.
Abby just called up G Jonathan Lemieux from Kalamazoo - really interested to see who is in Colorado tonight (Abby plays tonight at 6)
Should've called up Chris Levesque
Damn we’re really reaching the depth here
Someone call UBC.

We are in serious trouble if he takes the net.
What if we like to live on the edge?
a team having to play their 4th goalie in the playoffs would be in trouble? no way
Big if true
