On Wednesday, 106.7’s Overtime w/ Bill Rohland featured a Hershey Bear who’s sure to have a big impact in D.C. this season: Karl Alzner. According to Tarik:
This shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone, but McPhee pretty much said both John Carlson and Karl Alzner will be full-timers in Washington next season. “He’s shown us enough,” McPhee said of Alzner, who scored a huge goal in the first period of Monday’s Calder Cup-clinching win and was a rock on the blue line. “He could have been in the NHL last year. But the way our team was playing last year, we didn’t want to tinker with the chemistry too much and we thought he would be better off if we kept him playing. He’s a guy we expect to be in Washington.”
Listen to the audio here, if nothing else, to hear him explain how he looked like Wolverine for the team photo.
Overtime w/ Bill Rohland can be heard on weekdays from 7-11 PM on 106.7 The Fan.
I’m curious if BB would pair the youngsters (Carlson and Alzner) next season or prefer to pair them with veterans (Carlson/Poti and Alzner/?).
