I am annoyed by the lack of the clock. Does this go to a shootout if they tie after OT

bah. Would've liked to see some 3 on 3

Me too. I'll inevitably see it in person this year. Unless the goaltending is hot garbage in Norfolk, which is a possibility

Anaheim beat San Jose 2-0 tonight in a futures game. Igor Bobkov stopped 29/29 which is a real feat considering he's not that great. He's likely to be the #1 goalie in Norfolk. I guess the big takeaway for the rest of you is that Nick Ritchie got a goal on a deflection. William Karlsson had two points and he is cool as heck.

I don't think there's much coaching or systems in rookie games, they're basically shinny with set lines. No reason to look for trends game to game.

The Sharks and Ducks had the head coaches of their minor league affiliates. I'd imagine this is another tool to evaluate players. There's not a lot of time to learn systems or anything. It did just look like end to end rushes with occasional zone possession and power plays.
