I get that players and coaches want to win, but the AHL has always had a split personality. Prospect development is often in direct conflict with winning. However, this is a year unlike any other. Winning is usually a good things because it 1 puts your team in the playoffs and 2 puts more fans in the seats.
If those two motivations are gone for the season, then what exactly stops you from leaving your starter in for all three periods even if he's got a GAA that looks like a football score? Now comes the question of the midseason twist. Let's assume the AHL decides there will be no Calder Cup champion this season but then come April they change their mind. Hockey is a game of inches and some of those somewhat marginal decisions made because the goal of the season was different will come back to bite those teams that made them.
If the AHL thinks there is any chance they might play for a Calder Cup this year, they have to call that play before the season begins. As we saw last year across many sports, the decision can be made to remove a playoff midseason. However, the decision to add one is not tenable. Eagles defenseman Keaton Middleton had his first four-point game of the year, scoring his first and second goals in an Eagles uniform while also adding two assists.
Reign goaltender Matthew Villalta even had two assists in the third period. Alas, those assists could not help in overtime, as rookie d-man Justin Barron potted the game-winning goal for the Eagles at precisely the mark of the extra frame. Despite a strong start from the Tucson Roadrunners, the San Jose Barracuda finished strong to advance to the next round of the play-in.
San Jose winger Jake McGrew scored a sneaky yet beautiful goal to give the Barracuda the lead over Tucson into the third period. Defender Kyle Capobianco tried his hardest the rest of the game to both tie the game for the Roadrunners and prevent any more Barracuda goals.
