In Abbotsford the Barracuda took on the Canucks and dropped another one this time by a final of 6-2.

For San Jose it’s been a rough road trip with no wins to speak of and in this one they’d look to reverse their fortunes.

The Barracuda did not get off to a great start however when just 3:58 into the first Kyle Rau scored to get his sixth of the season. The assists on the goal went to both Justin Dowling and Christian Wolanin.

At the 11:07 mark the Canucks doubled up their score by getting another one this time John Stevens scored to get his sixth of the season. Phil Di Giuseppe got the lone assist on the goal.

That ended up being all the scoring in the first as both teams powerplay’s went 0/2.

The shots at the end of the period also favored Abbotsford at 10-4.

Down 2-0 the Barracuda found a response 5:16 into the second as Andrew Agozzino got his ninth goal of the season with both Patrick Sieloff and William Eklund getting assists on the play.

Not long after San Jose got closer the power play unit for the Canucks struck to get the lead back to two with Dowling getting his fifth goal on the year. Both Wolanin and Tristen Nielsen assisted on the goal.

Nick Cicek at the 13:34 mark took a hooking penalty and put Abbotsford’s power play unit back on the ice.

Feeling the momentum of their last power play goal they scored again this time Will Lockwood scored his 11th goal of the season. Dowling and Wolanin joined in again on the scoring both assisting on the goal.

On top of giving up two power play goals Aaron Dell got a surprising ten minute misconduct for abuse of an official. He stayed in the game though and the Canucks did not score on the power play.

At the end of the period the shots still favored the Canucks at 18-14.

In the third just 3:32 in Abbotsford continued the offensive push this Di Giuseppe scored tallying his fourth of the season. John Stevens got the lone assist on the goal.

The Canucks offense was not done yet though as Rau scored his second of the game making it 6-1 with both Lockwood and Dowling assisting on the goal.

With little time left in the third San Jose’s power play hit the ice once again and this time scored as Thomas Bordeleau scored to get his 13th of the season. Eklund and Danil Gushchin both assisted on the goal.

That ended up being the final goal of the game with the score finishing at 6-2.

Both Spencer Smallman and Keaton Middleton got assists on the goal.

In their second of back to backs against the Eagles the Barracuda lost another one on the road 5-2.

Kicking off the first period San Jose quickly found themselves done taking a penalty just 1:59 into the game.

The penalty unit despite being forced out there early killed the PP off and went perfect in the first period killing all four penalties they faced.

Though the penalty kill went fine five-on-five the Eagles got a goal 9:39 into the first period from Ryan Wagner who got his fourth goal of the season. Both Spencer Smallman and Keaton Middleton got assists on the goal.

Less than five minutes after the first goal for Colorado they followed that up as Smallman got another his second in as many games. Middleton and Josh Jacobs also got assists on the goal.

That ended up being all the scoring in the first as the Eagles hung on to their 2-0 lead.

The shots at the end of the period favored Colorado 11-5.

Heading into the second the last thing I’m sure head coach John McCarthy would’ve wanted was for the Barracuda to take more penalties. But they did just that as Jasper Weatherby took a delay of game penalty just a couple minutes into the period.

On this power play the Eagles did not miss as Cedric Paré got his fourth goal of the season making it 3-0. Callahan Burke and David Farrance both got assists on the goal.

The early goal certainly was deflating San Jose but they would respond with a decent rest of the period.

Which the Barracuda would be rewarded for as 16:54 into the second Thomas Bordeleau scored his 12th goal of the season leading all AHL rookies. Both William Eklund and Jalen Smereck got assists on the goal.

The second period finished at 3-1 with the shots still favoring the Eagles at 19-18.

The third period was opened up again with an early goal as just 2:25 into the third Shane Bowers scored his third goal of the season. Oskar Olausson and Alex Galchenyuk both got assists on the fourth goal.

Less than a minute later the Barracuda did respond as Brandon Coe sniped one in from an awkward angle to get his third goal of the season.

At just a two goal deficit San Jose looked to tie it by pulling their goalie. Burke though would end that push with an empty net goal his seventh of the season from Anton Blidh and Ryan Wagner.

That goal would end up being the last one of the game with the score finishing at 5-2.

The three stars of the game were: 1st: Cedric Paré 2nd: Ryan Wagner 3rd: Spencer Smallman

The shots at the end of the game favored Colorado at 28-27.

San Jose’s next game will be on Tuesday on the road against the Abbotsford Canucks at 7 p.m.

The Barracuda took on the Eagles on the road and lost a tight affair against Colorado by a final of 4-3 on Friday night.

The first period between the two teams was a tight checking period with no goals for most of the period.

At the 17:00 mark however the Barracuda got a powerplay opportunity thanks to high-sticking penalty against Nate Clurman.

Shorthanded though the Eagles scored a minute and 30 seconds into the powerplay from Spencer Smallman who got his first goal of the season. The goal was also unassisted.

That ended up being all the scoring in the first with the shots finishing in favor of San Jose at 13-11.

The second period started exactly opposite to the first period as just 1:09 in Andrew Agozzino scored for San Jose to get his eight goal of the season. Both William Eklund and Danil Guschin got assists on the goal.

The tie however did not last for long as just 28 seconds later Cedric Paré got his third goal of the season for Colorado with Smallman getting the lone assist on the goal.

After the quick outburst of goals to start the period both offenses quieted down with just a couple penalties for around the next 15 minutes.

15:20 into the second though Martin Kaut got his fourth goal of the season extending the lead for Colorado making it 3-1. Callahan Burke and Anton Blidh got assists on the goal.

Down by two with the minutes ticking away in the second the Barracuda pressed looking for a response.

For San Jose they would find that response with Tristen Robins getting his ninth goal of the season brining it back to just a one goal deficit. The goal itself ended up being unassisted.

That would be the final big play of the period as the score remained at 3-2 heading into the third.

The shots still favored San Jose at 23-22 going into the final period of play.

The third period did not get off to a great start for the Barracuda as far as penalties as they took two back to back to kick of the third.

San Jose’s penalty unit did come up big though and killed off both.

8:19 into the third period however Sampo Ranta scored his fourth goal of the season for the Eagles making it 4-2. Burke and David Farrance got assists on the goal.

Despite the goal Colorado also committed a couple errors also taking multiple penalties in the period.

On one of these penalties Guschin scored his seventh goal of the season to make it a one goal contest. Both Thomas Bordeleau and Eklund got assists on the play.

San Jose did push to tie it but it would not be enough as Colorado hung on to finish the game at 4-3.

The three stars of the game were: 1st: Spencer Smallman 2nd: Martin Kaut 3rd: Callahan Burke.

The shots at the end of the game still favored the Barracuda at 31-30.

San Jose will look to rebound tomorrow playing the Eagles once again in Colorado at 6 p.m.

On the road the Barracuda failed to find a goal getting blanked by the Henderson Silver Knights by a dominating 5-0 score.

The game got off to a quick start for the Silver Knights as just 3:06 into the first period Byron Froese got his fourth goal of the season. Both Gage Quinney and Sheldon Rempal got assists on the play.

Then not to long after Montana Onyebuchi would be assessed with a unsportsmanlike penalty and a ten minute misconduct.

On that same penalty Henderson would widen the margin to 2-0 with Mason Primeau getting his third goal of the season. The assists ended up going to both Brendan Brisson and Lukas Cormier.

At the 10:40 mark then Adam Raska decided to drop the gloves with Kyle Marino to try and get the Barracuda going.

It did not end up working and as a matter of fact the Silver Knights actually scored again this time Pavel Dorofeyev with his fifth of the season. Brisson and Ivan Morozov got assists on the play.

By the end of the first the shots actually favored San Jose at 15-11.

Heading into the second the Barracuda were looking for a response but rather the Silver and gold had something else in store. As just 27 seconds into the period Ivan Morozov scored his second of the season to increase the lead to 4-0.

On the goal both Dorofeyev and Brisson got assists.

Then not less than 20 seconds after the first goal of the period Froese got his second goal of the night to make it 5-0. Both Quinney and Lukas Cormier got assists on the goal.

After that goal the Barracuda would pull Eetu Makiniemi who had a rough night between the pipes.

With Aaron Dell in net the scoring stopped for the rest of the period.

The shots by the end of the second still favored San Jose at 24-23.

The third period would be a continued show of no offense for the Barracuda as they were only able to muster seven shots in the period.

They also were held off the scoresheet as Laurent Brossoit got a 31 save shutout.

With no goals from the Silver Knights either it was a pretty quiet final period.

The shots at the end of the game though did still favor San Jose at 31-30.

The Barracuda’s next game will be on the road against the Colorado Eagles on Friday at 6 p.m.

SAN JOSE–The new team in the desert is not your typical expansion team.

The Coachella Valley Firebirds exploded for a five-goal outburst in the first period en route to a dominating 8-3 victory over the San Jose Barracuda on Friday evening at Tech CU Arena.

San Jose had its two-game winning sneak snapped. Coachella Valley has won five games in a row.

It was a night to forget for ‘Cuda starting goalie Aaron Dell, who gave up five goals on 17 shots in the opening 20 minutes as the Firebirds peppered him with shots early and often.

Max McCormick got the party started early for Coachella Valley (12-4-2-0) when he scored his seventh goal of the season, set up by Peetro Seppala, at the 1:46 mark.

Brogan Rafferty scored just his second goal of the season under three minutes later at the 4:20 mark. Jesper Froden and former ‘Cuda center Alexander True recorded assists on Rafferty’s goal.

Lind scored his second goal of the period, Coachella Valley’s second straight power play goal at the 13:45 mark.

Dell was replaced by rookie goalie Strauss Mann to start the second period but Coachella Valley didn’t make life any easier for Mann.

Lind picked up where he left off in the first period as he began the second period as he scored a natural hat trick on the Firebirds third consecutive power play goal at the 1:53 mark.

William Eklund gave the Barracuda some life he scored an even strength goal at the 13:39 mark of the middle frame. Andrew Agozzino and Montana Onyebuchi recorded assists on Eklund’s seventh goal of the season.

Onyebuchi cut the Firebirds lead in half when he one-timed a centering pass from behind the net by Danil Gushchin for his third goal of the season at the 8:15 mark of the third period.

The Firebirds made the ‘Cuda pay for a fourth time when they went to the sin bin. McCormick scored his second goal of the game and eighth of the season at the 13:37 mark.

Andrew Porturalksi finished off the scoring with 1:29 remaining in the game when he scored his sixth goal of the season.

Firebirds goalie Joey Daccord had a slow night with 13 saves on just 16 shots to earn his fourth straight victory to give him a 7-2-1 record. Mann made 17 saves 20 shots in 40 minutes of mop up duty.

SAN JOSE — Andrew Agozzino scored the game winning goal with 46 seconds left in overtime to give the San Jose Barracuda a 4-3 comeback victory over the Tuscon Roadrunners on Sunday afternoon at Tech CU Arena.

San Jose has won two games in a row and swept the two-game series with their division opponent. Tucson has lost three games in a row.

Danil Gushchin led a two on one odd man rush with Agozzino up the ice. Gushchin sent a cross rink pass over to the ‘Cuda captain who blasted a one-timer past Roadrunners goalie Ivan Prosvetov for his second goal of the game and seventh goal of the season.

Tucson (10-7-2-0) drew first blood in the first period. Jean-Sebastian Dea cleaned up his own rebound after receiving a pass from Laurent Dauphin for his 11th goal of the season at the 7:34 mark.

The Roadrunners doubled their lead with a power play goal more than halfway through the second period. Michael Carcone sniped home a wrist shot from the right slot through a screened ‘Cuda goalie Eetu Makiniemi for his seventh goal of the season at the 12:24 mark.

San Jose (12-9-0-1) cut the Tucson lead in half 50 seconds later. Tristen Robins initially had his breakaway attempt stoned by Prosvetov but Thomas Bordeleau gathered the loose puck and deposited into the back of the net for his team leading 11th goal of the season at the 13:14 mark. Bordeleau has scored a goal in three straight games.

The Barracuda scored the equalizer with a power play goal late in the middle frame. Gushchin lasered in a wrist shot from the right point past Prsvetov for his sixth goal of the season at the 17:12 mark.

Tucson scored the equalizer with their second power play goal of the game late in the third period. Carcone sent a rink wide pass over to Adam Cracknell who one-timed the puck past Makiniemi for his sixth goal of the season at the 15:05 mark.

Barracuda power play is special in 4-2 win over Roadrunners

SAN JOSE — It was a night made for tossing teddy bears and scoring power play goals.

The San Jose Barracuda scored three consecutive goals on the man advantage as they came back from a one-goal deficit to defeat the Tucson Roadrunners 4-2 on Saturday evening at Tech CU Arena.

San Jose snapped a two-game losing streak and are 1-2 on their current six-game homestand. Tucson has lost two in a row after ending the month of November winning four of its last five games.

It was the annual Teddy Bear Toss Night and first one at the new building. Fans had to wait till the second period to flood the ice with the hundreds of stuffed animals as Tucson (10-7-1-0) drew first blood in the first period.

Victor Soderstrom found Jan Jenik in the right slot and Jenik fired a one-timer past ‘Cuda goalie Strauss Mann for his third goal of the season at the 5:49 mark.

San Jose (11-9-0-1) scored the equalizer with its first power play goal late in the second period. A shot from the point by Ryan Merkley pinballed off of Jasper Weatherby and then Luke Johnson past Roadrunners goalie Jon Gillies into the back of the net. It was Jonhson’s fifth goal of the season at the 18:17 mark.

“I thought it might have been a high stick, so I didn’t sell it too hard. It was a big goal too, so it was nice to see it go in,” Johnson said.

A blizzard of stuffed animals flew onto the ice from the 2,478 in attendance. Due to the lengthy delay, both teams went into the locker rooms for the second intermission.

I thought our second was our best period. It’s nice to have the power play goals, nice to get the two points,” ‘Cuda head coach John McCarthy said.

Once the middle frame resumed, the Barracuda finished off the period with its second power play goal. William Eklund sent a rink wide pass over to Thomas Bordeleau who blasted a one-timer past Gillies for his team leading 10th goal of the season at the 19:08 mark.

“It’s fun to get the win. We’re right back at it tomorrow so there’s not a lot of time to feel good about yourself and stuff like that. You gotta get right back at it,” Bordeleau said.

A scary situation happened early in the third period when Bokondji Imama slammed Artemi Kniazev from behind into the boards injuring Kniazev, who was able to walk off under his own power to the locker room but did not return to the game. The play resulted in a five-minute major to Imama and a game misconduct who was ejected from the game.

San Jose made Tucson pay as they scored an insurance goal with its third unanswered power play goal just halfway through the third period near the end of their five-minute power play. Merkley, who finished with two assists, set up Eklund who snapped home a one-timer past Gillies for his sixth goal of the season at the 11:10 mark.

‘Cuda defenseman Montana Onyebuchi sealed the deal for San Jose when he cleaned up a rebound off of an Ozzy Wiseblatt shot for his second goal of the season at the 17:10 mark.

Jean-Sebastian Dea completed the scoring with his 10th goal of the season at the 18:29 mark. Adam Cracknell and Laurent Dauphin were credited with assists.

Mann finished the game stopping 22 of the 24 shots he faced to earn his third victory of the season. Gillies made 32 saves on 36 shots in the losing effort.

GAME NOES: San Jose finished 3-for-8 on the power play. Tucson went 0-for-3.

The Three Stars of the Game were: 1) Bordeleau 2) Johnson 3) Merkley

UP NEXT: San Jose and Tucson conclude their two-games series on Sunday 12/4 at 3:00pm at Tech CU Arena.
