Comets wrap up homestand with loss

Posted on by

UTICA The Utica Comets ended their longest homestand of the season on a down note as they dropped a 5-2 decision to their American Hockey League North Division rivals, the Rochester Americans, at the Utica Memorial Auditorium on Friday night.

A near sellout crowd of 3,716 was on hand to witness the seventh meeting this season between Utica and Rochester, a game which featured seven goals and 38 penalty minutes. The Comets went 4-2-0-1 in their seven-game home stand dating back to Dec. 15.

Kellan Lain and Pascal Pelletier each scored for Utica, which fell to 6-10-1-2 at The Aud this season with the loss.

Comets goalie Joe Cannata, who started his fourth straight game in net, made 21 saves on 26 shots in defeat. Despite tying their season high of 35 shots on home ice, the Comets were unable to extend their power-play scoring streak on home ice, which ends at ten games as they fell to 11-17-1-2 overall.

Alex Hutchings scored twice for Rochester, while Tim Schaller, Nick Crawford, and Joel Armia had the other goals, and netminder Matt Hackett stopped 33 of 35 shots.

Comets defenseman Kent Huskins, who picked up his first point of the season, got his shot through on net where Lain was on hand to put it home and get the hosts ahead 1-0 in the first period. The assist was also the 150th of Huskins professional career and Brandon DeFazio picked up his ninth assist on the play as well.

The Americans answered back in the first with a goal by Hutchings, before the right winger scored his second goal of the season and of the game in the second period to put the guests up for good at 2-1.

The Americans then scored twice in the second period and twice more in the third to seal the victory and improve to 14-11-3-3 overall.

Despite tying their home season high with 35 shots on net, the Comets could not solve Matt Hackett, who finished with 33 saves and the victory. In net for his fourth consecutive start, Joe Cannata made 21 saves in the loss to fall to 3-8-0-1on the season.

Marlies Outlook: Toronto is also in the second half of a back-to-back, after they fell last evening by a 6-3 scoreline to the Syracuse Crunch at Ricoh Coliseum. Carter Ashton, Andrew Crescenzi and Mike Duco found the back of the net for the Marlies, while goaltender Drew MacIntyre picked up the loss with 31 saves on 37 shots. Brett Connolly led the Crunch with three points (1-2-3) and center Vladimir Namestnikov potted two goals.

Pelletier Leads The Way: Pascal Pelletier found the back of the net for the second straight game to maintain his point-per-game pace. The center from Labrador City, NL now has 27 points through 27 games played, the only Comet player scoring at a point-per-game clip. Pelletier's 20 assists are tied for sixth in the AHL.

Quadruple Dog Darren: Utica forward Darren Archibald has recorded points in each of his last four games played, extended with his assist on Pelletier's goal. Archibald has collected five points (3-2-5) over the four games and has also picked up two fighting majors and eight shots on goal throughout the streak.

All Good Things Must Come To An End: The Comets power-play scoring streak on home ice finally came to a close at ten games, as they failed to score with the man-advantage against Rochester. The Comets went 0-5 against the Americans. The last time the Comets were unable to score a power-play goal on home ice was Nov. 16 against the Texas Stars.

Comets Remain Hot at Home with 3-2 Decision over Lake Erie

Posted on by

January 1, 2014 - American Hockey League (AHL) Utica Comets The Utica Comets moved to 4-1-0-1 on their current homestand as they defeated the Lake Erie Monsters 3-2 in a matinee showdown at The AUD that kicked off the 2014 portion of the American Hockey League's schedule. The Comets, who have now earned points in six of their past seven games on home ice, moved to 25 points on the season, eight points out of eighth place in the Western Conference.

Pascal Pelletier, Colin Stuart and Darren Archibald each scored for the Comets, while Joe Cannata made 18 saves to earn his first victory on home ice this season, his third overall. Pelletier, Archibald and teammate Alex Biega all had multiple points on the afternoon.

Cannata and Lake Erie's Sami Aittokallio stole the show in the first period as both goaltenders posted a shutout. Cannata made eight stops to Aittokallio's seven as neither team could find the back of the net. Alex Friesen led all Utica skaters with two shots on net. Pelletier had the period's best scoring chance with a penalty shot at the 8:23 mark but his backhanded bid was denied by Aittokallio.

Pelletier put the Comets ahead 6:10 into the second period with his sixth goal of the season. After serving his minor penalty for roughing, Alex Biega hit the Comets leading scorer with a breakaway pass and the center slotted a wrist shot past Aittokallio on the glove side. Brandon DeFazio also picked up an assist on the play, his eighth helper of the season.

The Comets doubled their advantage with a power-play goal at the 15:34 mark as Colin Stuart put a slap shot from the point into the lower right corner of the Lake Erie net. Off of a feed from Pelletier, the captain buried his tenth goal of the season, becoming the second Comet, along with Benn Ferriero, to hit the double-digit mark. The goal marked now the tenth straight home game in which the Comets have scored with the man advantage.

Lake Erie drew one back just 2:13 into the third period as captain Bryan Lerg scored his twelfth of the season on a shot from the point. Lerg's goal, his team high twelfth of the season, came off of assists from defensemen Matt Hunwick and Brett Clark and cut the Utica lead to 2-1.

The Comets regained their two-goal advantage as Darren Archibald scored for the third straight game. The bruising winger put a sharp angle shot past Aittokallio from the right hand circle to put Utica ahead 3-1. Biega picked up his second assist of the afternoon to tie his career high in both assists and points. Pelletier added another assist to complete his second three-point game of the season.

Lake Erie once again was able to cut the deficit to one as Andrew Agozzino scored a power-play marker at the 11:18 mark of the third. The winger banged a loose puck in front past Cannata to bring the Monsters as close as they would get. Mark Olver and Lerg each picked up assists on the play to remain tied as the Lake Erie leaders with 15 on the season.

The Comets complete their seven game homestand with a home tilt against the Rochester Americans on Friday. The Americans will skate in their first game in North America since December 21st, due to their participation in the Spengler Cup in Switzerland. The Americans went 0-3 and were eliminated in the quarterfinals. Puck drop is set for 7:00 p.m. on Friday evening.

Comet C/2013 R1 Lovejoy starts the new year as the brightest comet in the sky at around magnitude 6. In this photo taken on Dec. 31, two tails are visible. The longer one is the ion or gas tail; the broader pale yellow fan is the dust tail. Credit: Damian Peach

As 2014 opens, most of the half dozen comets traversing the morning and evening sky are faint and require detailed charts and a good-sized telescope to see and appreciate. Except for Comet Lovejoy. This gift to beginner and amateur astronomers alike keeps on giving. But wait, theres more. Three additional binocular-bright comets will keep us busy starting this spring.

Track of Comet C/2013 R1 Lovejoy in the morning sky marked at 3-day intervals shortly before the start of dawn (6 a.m. local time) tomorrow through Jan. 31. Stars shown for Dec. 29 to magnitude 5.8. Her = Hercules and Oph = Ophiuchus. Click to enlarge. Created with Chris Marriotts SkyMap software

Still glowing around the naked eye limit at magnitude 6, the Lovejoy remains easy to see in binoculars from dark skies as it tracks from southern Hercules into Ophiuchus in the coming weeks.

The best time to view the comet is shortly before the start of dawn when it sails highest in the eastern sky at an altitude of around 30 degrees or three fists up from the horizon. By Januarys end, the comet will still be 25 degrees high in a dark sky. My last encounter with Lovejoy was a week ago when 1050 binoculars revealed a bright coma and 1.5 degree long tail to the northwest. Through the telescope the stark contrast between bright, compact nucleus and gauzy coma struck me as one of the most beautiful sights Id seen all month.

Path of Comet C/2012 K1 PANSTARRS this spring when it should be a nice comet for small to medium sized telescopes. Created with Chris Marriotts SkyMap software

Looking ahead to 2014 there are at present three comets beside Lovejoy that are expected to wax bright enough to see in binoculars and possibly with the naked eye:C/2012 K1 PanSTARRS,C/2013 V5 OukaimedenandC/2013 A1 Siding SpringThe first lurks in Hercules but come early April should bulk up to magnitude 9.5, bright enough to track in a small telescope for northern hemisphere observers. Watch K1 PANSTARRS amble from Bootes across the Big Dipper and down through Leo from mid-spring through late June hitting magnitude 7.5 before disappearing in the summer twilight glow. K1 will be your go-to comet during convenient viewing hours.

Come early September after K1 PANSTARRS leaves the suns ken, it reappears in the morning sky, traveling westward from Hydra into Puppis. Southern hemisphere observers are now favored, but northerners wont suffer too badly. The comet is expected to crest to magnitude 5.5 in mid-October just before it dips too far south for easy viewing at mid-northern latitudes.

Comet Oukaimeden may glow around 8th magnitude in late August 2014 when it rises with the winter stars before dawn. Stellarium.

Comets Kick off New Year with Exciting Win

Posted on by

January 1, 2014 - Major Indoor Soccer League (MISL) Missouri Comets ROCHESTER, NY (January 1, 2014) - The Missouri Comets, Major Indoor Soccer League's scoring leaders, earned an exciting 19-17 victory over the Rochester Lancers on New Year's Day at Rochester's Blue Cross Arena. Vahid Assadpour led all scorers with three goals and two assists for eight points on the night. Rochester midfielder Gary Boughton had three goals of his own, including a three-point score in the second quarter, to lead the Lancers in a losing effort.

For the sixth time in seven games, the Comets opened the scoring for the game...and for the fourth time in seven games, Leo Gibson and Vahid Assadpour were involved in the score. As Gibson held the ball up in the corner, Assadpour ran past him and received a perfect heel pass which he easily converted for the score. The early lead wouldn't last as Rochester scored a three-point goal soon after. Lancers' defender Pedrinho crossed the ball from outside the arc to forward Mauricio Salles. Comets defender Robert Palmer dove to knock the ball away, but it deflected off his head and into the goal. Palmer redeemed himself late in the half with a three-point score of his own. He tracked down a rebound off the wall and hit a shot that found a clear lane into the goal.

In the second quarter Leo Gibson, John Sosa and Lucas Rodriguez scored for the Comets while Assadpour added his second score as Missouri outscored the Lancers 8-5 in the quarter. However, two goals in the half from Gary Boughton, a second score from Pedrinho and a three-point goal from Mauricio Salles kept the two sides even at 13 points each as they went into the halftime break.

For Rochester, they looked to keep up their high-scoring ways in the second half and opened up with two goals in the first three minutes of the third quarter. Boughton completed his hat trick less than a minute in and Bato opened up his Rochester account two minutes in.

Comets' veteran leaders Assadpour, Gibson and Harris calmed down their side at that point. Down 17-13, Missouri fought hard to maintain possession and look for scoring opportunities. Showing frustration, Lancers players Stephen Basso and Edgar Bartolomeu were sent to the penalty box within ten seconds of each other. The Comets only needed ten more seconds to convert the 5 on 3 advantage to get the Comets back to within a goal of the Lancers. Ramone Palmer found himself in the right place later in the third quarter and knocked home a rebound over Rochester goalkeeper, Gavin McInerny to tie the game at the break.

The Comets only scored once in the fourth quarter, but that was all they needed for the victory. Vahid Assadpour took the ball the length of the floor and put his shot between the legs of McInerny to complete his third hat trick of the season. The Comets then sought to control the ball the rest of the period, at one time holding possession for six straight minutes. Despite a mad rush to goal in the final seconds by the Lancers, the Comets held on for their fifth win of the season, 19-17.

The Comets have one more stop on this road trip, playing in Baltimore on Friday January 3rd at 6:35p.m. CT. The 2013 MISL Championship re-match against the Blast can be seen LIVE on the Comets website at CometsIndoorSoccer.com/Live-Feed. The team returns home on Sunday January 5th at 3:10p.m. CT for another match against the Rochester Lancers.

Catonsville girls basketball shows promise for another strong season

Posted on by

As Catonsville girls basketball coach Mike Mohler looks at his team's future, he sees the past. Year after year, the Comets rank among the best teams in the metro area.

Catonsville won Baltimore County championships three years in a row (2008-2010), lost in the county final in 2012 and went 20-4 last year.

Mohler considers the 2013 Comets, anchored by the only two seniors on the 14-player roster, point guard Breya Wallace and forward Taylor Barton, in the class of those outstanding teams.

Catonsville is off to a 5-1 start.

"I love this team," said Mohler, who is in his 20th year as coach. "I really do. This team can be something special."

Catonsville used 10 players in a 35-30 victory over North Harford on Dec. 27 in the BBOWS Holly & Hoops Holiday Basketball Tournament.

That type of depth allows the Comets to run a tenacious press, which is one of the signatures of Mohler's teams.

In six games this season, they have yielded more than 30 points only twice.

The teams that managed to do it, Patterson Mill and Seton Keough, are ranked among the top 15 teams in The Baltimore Sun girls high school basketball poll.

"That's not bad at all," Mohler said of the points allowed in the team's first six games. "Our goal is 30 (or less)."

Comets Welcome New Year

Posted on by

December 31, 2013 - Major Indoor Soccer League (MISL) Missouri Comets INDEPENDENCE, MO (December 31, 2013) - The Missouri Comets head to Rochester, New York for their first match this season against the Rochester Lancers on January 1st at 2:00p.m. CT. The team is looking to rebound after a disappointing loss at home last Saturday. The Comets currently sit tied for third place on the Major Indoor Soccer League (MISL) table with a 4-2 record. The Lancers are tied for fifth place with a 3-5 record.

This is the Comets first trip to the east coast this season. Rochester wasn't very friendly to the team in their trips out there last season. Missouri was outscored 41-25 in two trips to the Upstate New York city. However, this year's team has an improved offense that is currently tops in the league. The Comets have scored 115 points in six games, nearly 20 points per game. They have six players among the MISL's top 25 scorers, including two players in the top three. Captain Vahid Assadpour leads the team with 32 points. Right behind him is forward Leo Gibson who has scored six goals in the past three games.

Rochester is led by midfielder Gary Boughton with seven goals and 15 points. Defensively, they rely on Jake Schindler and JP Rodrigues to keep shots away from their net. Rodrigues, who spent the last several seasons with the Milwaukee Wave, has only played three games with the Lancers, but made an immediate impact, scoring a goal and an assist in his first match with the club.

The special New Year's Day game is scheduled for a 2:00p.m. CT kickoff. A live broadcast of the match can be found on the Comets website at CometsIndoorSoccer.com/Live-Feed. The team plays another road game on Friday January 3rd, this time at the Baltimore Blast, before returning home for round two against the Lancers at home on Sunday January 5th at 3:10p.m. CT.

Comets Welcome New Year

Comets Corner: Kellan Lain

Posted on by

December 31, 2013 - American Hockey League (AHL) Utica Comets As the year 2013 comes to a close, Utica Comet Kellan Lain looks to continue his recent success into the New Year. The rookie center has nine points throughout 29 games in his first full season pro (5-4-9), with three of those goals coming in his last five games. Those three goals also started off the scoring for the Comets, as Lain got them on the board first three times in a row. "It's always important to get off to a strong start and getting the first goal is huge for momentum," Lain stated. "The first goal is always crucial."

A native of Oakville, Ontario, Lain played 13 games with the Chicago Wolves last season and racked up six penalty minutes. He has also served as an enforcer for the Comets this season, totaling 73 PIMs in 29 games played. When asked how his transition went from college level hockey to the pro level, Lain explained, "It's a huge jump. The [pro] game is played at a very high speed and you have less time to make decisions on the ice. Players are older and more experienced and know the game, so every day, you need to come to the rink and focus on getting better." Lain's biggest focus since turning pro has been on his consistency. He explained how challenging it is to constantly put points on the board, and that becoming stronger both mentally and physically will help him reach a higher level of play.

Lain also credited some of his recent success to his linemates, Brandon DeFazio and fellow rookie Alex Mallet. "DeFazio and Lain have been playing great, and we really feed off of each other," Lain said. "We try to bring a lot of energy to the team and wear down our opponents by playing fast and physical." DeFazio has totaled nine points throughout this season (2-7-9) and Mallet has two (1-1-2).

It is apparent that things are looking up for the Comets, who are looking more cohesive each and every game. Lain credits this towards the team becoming more familiar with one another, stating, "It took some time for us to come together as a team, as many of us had never played together before. We know how our team needs to play to succeed and we just need to focus on the specifics going forward."

One of three siblings, Lain credits his whole family with helping him reach his goal of playing pro. "I owe everything I have and where I am at to my parents and family," he said. "My parents provided me with every opportunity possible to succeed and have been there to support me every step of the way. I am very close with my brother and sister...they are very encouraging and were great role models for me growing up."

With 2014 already upon us, things are looking bright for Lain, who is only just beginning his professional hockey career.

Comets fall after late rally

Posted on by

UTICA The Utica Comets mounted a third-period comeback by erasing a two-goal deficit but were unable to steal a win away in the shootout and wound up falling to the Hamilton Bulldogs, 4-3, on Saturday at the sold-out Utica Memorial Auditorium.

Alexandre Grenier, Darren Archibald and Henrik Tommernes each scored a goal for the Comets, as Tommernes late third period goal sent the game to overtime.

Nicklas Jensen and Grenier scored in the shootout for the Comets, the second of the season for each.

After a hooking minor by Jerred Tinordi with 21 seconds left in the frame, Grenier knocked one in just 10 seconds into the man advantage to put Utica in front by one in the first period.

The two teams traded chances for the majority of the second, with just a 12-10 shots on goal advantage for the Bulldogs, before Louis Leblanc put Hamilton ahead 2-1 off a ricocheted shot got past Cannata.

The Bulldogs added one more tally to the scoreboard when Greg Pateryn made a slapshot from the point, 47 seconds into the third.

The Comets rally began when Archibald cut the deficit in half at the 4:27 mark after he beat three Hamilton defenders and fired a wrist shot past Tokarski.

In a dramatic finish to regulation, Tommernes unloaded one to tie the game with just 1:04 on the clock.
