Phantoms @ Albany River Rats, 11-7-09: Pregame

The Phantoms are in Albany, with the intent of gaining some ground in the Time Warner Cup race, not to mention that wee detail of benefiting in the standings from defeating a divisional rival.

We've gotten out offense untracked in the past couple of games, and that has been nice to see. Here's to seeing us keep the win streak going!

I can't live blog the game tonight, but you can follow its audio/video online at ahllive.com, or via the link to WNYQ on the sidebar. Also check the Twitter feed on the sidebar for updates.

Go Phantoms!

Phantoms vs. Syracuse Crunch, 11-01-09: Pregame

I won't be able to live-blog the game in depth.

You can listen to the game audio online for free, either on WNYQ's stream or at AHL Live.

For a fee, you can watch the game on AHL Live.

Tim McManus, the Phantoms' beat writer, posts in-game Twitter updates HERE and blogs HERE.

From the above-mentioned Twitter feed, I see that Jared Ross has dressed and is warming up with the team, as is Johan Baclund. Kalinski is not on the ice, however, and Michael-Lee Teslak has been returned to Elmira.

We owe the Crunnch a good crunching after they lambasted us 6-1 in Syracuse a few weeks ago.

Go Phantoms!

Phantoms vs. Hershey Bears, 10-16-2009, Pregame and First Period

I tuned in a bit late, as I had some difficulty getting connected. However, so far the first period is scoreless with 3:23 remaining in the first period. Then, once I did get online, I spent the first few minutes battling with video feed that repeatedly froze and buffered.

In any event, not only is the period scoreless, it appears to be penalty-free as well. That surprised me, as the official in question has also had games where he has called every miniscule thing. (See: the Phantoms/Bears elimination game in Round 1 last spring. He reffed that game, as well.)

The first period is now over, and from what I could see of it once the video revived, tbe action was well-balanced and the goalies put on a nice show. The score is currently 0-0, and no infractions have been called yet. SOG are even at 6-6.

The scratches are Dingle, Kolanos, Bellamy, Lehtivuori, Stephenson. (So both veterans who recently were absent from the lineup due to births in their respective families have returned to the lineup.)

The starters were Jones, Bourdon, Kaspar, Kalinski, Beaulieu, Backlund.

HERE is the link to tonight's box score on the AHL site.

HERE is Tim McManus's blog entry, which is being updated during the game, from the Post-Star's site.

Phantoms at Syracuse Crunch, 10-10-2009, Pregame

I won't be able to live blog the Phantoms game tonight, as I will be attending the Flyers game.

However, the Phantoms' beat writer, Tim McManus, will be posting updates HERE on Twitter, so that's one way to keep updated via the internet. You can also keep tabs on his Phantoms blog on the Post-Star site.

Another way, besides visiting AHL Live for the radio cybercast (free) or the video webcast (fee), is to go directly to the WNYQ 101.7 FM radio stream, which is HERE. NOTE: Unlike AHL Live's site, the WNYQ link actually works on Windows Mobile cell phones. So if you have a WinMo device with a mobile internet connection, and are interested in listening to the game, now you have a solution if you're outside the broadcast area of WNYQ.
