On the SJ Barracuda podcast with Ana:

1. The Barracuda reassigned Colby McAuley to the Allen Americans last Thursday. What are Ana’s thoughts on the team’s decision?

2. Last season, defenseman Jeremy Roy tore his ACL in his left knee, which ended his season with the Blainville-Boisbriand Armada of the QMJHL. He could’ve returned to the QMJHL, but the Sharks decided San Jose was the best place for him to continue his development. How about the Sharks’ judgment?

3. How much of an impact has Kevin Labanc had on the Barracuda after his return to the AHL?

4. The Barracuda played two games against the Manitoba Moose at SAP Center. Rourke Chartier made his season debut in Game 1. Ana tells us more about the first game on Saturday afternoon.

5. The Barracuda continued a back-to-back set against the Moose on Sunday afternoon. Give us a quick recap of Game 2.

6. The Barracuda host the San Antonio Rampage tonight, visit the Ontario Reign Friday night, and return home to host the San Diego Gulls Saturday afternoon. What do they need to do to ensure a successful next three games?

7. Get Ana’s predictions on those three games?
