San Jose Barracuda podcast Madison Montez:

#1 How did San Jose respond defensively after giving up early goals, and could players like Filip Bystedt or Igor Chernyshov have done more to stem Henderson’s momentum?

#2 What adjustments might forward Donavan Houle have made in the third period that helped the Barracuda’s late goal despite the team trailing for most of the game?

#3 Did Barracuda defenseman Mattias Havelid play a key role in generating offensive chances, and how effective was he in transitioning play against Henderson’s pressure?

#4 What contributions did Quentin Musty or Oliver Wahlstrom provide in terms of forechecking or creating scoring opportunities, even though they didn’t record points?

#5 How did the goaltending performances from Gabriel Carriere (or Jakub Skarek) impact the outcome, and what could they have done differently to contain Henderson’s early scoring?

#2 San Jose has won a season best four games in a row, including five of their first six games and swept its second straight series,

#3 Henderson has lost four games in a row and five of their first six to start their season. Their a struggling group are the Silver Knights a worthy opponent and Barracuda took care of business or were the Knights easy pickings for the Barracuda?

#4 How much of a factor has goaltender Yaroslav Askarov been in the recent success for the Barracuda in preventing goals against and do you see Askarov not long for joining the struggling San Jose Sharks and helping them out in net at the NHL level at some point?

#5 The Barracuda face off against the Coachella Valley Firebirds Wednesday night Oct 30th in San Jose. The Firebirds have always been a thorn in the Barraducda’s side.
