#14 - Mark Cundari
Mark Cundari, a Defenceman from Toronto, ON, is an undrafted player who signed with the St Louis Blues after being passed over in the 2008 Entry Draft and played for their AHL affiliate for 3 years before being traded to Calgary in 2013 with Reto Berra and a 2013 pick (Emile Poirier) for Jay Bouwmeester. Prior to joining the Blues organization, Cundari was a member of the OHL Windsor Spitfires for 4 years, winning two Memorial Cup championships with them in 2008-09 and 2009-10. In 2013, Cundari was selected to play in the AHL All-Star Game as a member of the Peoria Rivermen and he became the first player in 8 years to take a penalty during the game. That same season, he was traded and then called up to Calgary where he made his NHL debut on April 21st and scored a goal in his first game against the Minnesota Wild. He is currently signed to the Calgary Flames on a one year two-way deal and will become a RFA at the end of this season.

Gillies, Yonkman and Sieloff will be the scratches it appears. Carr wasn't on the ice. Could that mean he was (finally) sent down?

I saw a correction saying Carr was out there.
It appears that they don't know where they parked the Carr.
(Caged Great is going to start throwing shoes again...)

So Carr won't start? in need of repairs? Probably for the best because he has a history of breaking down mid season
I wonder what he'd fetch in trade-in value

I believe he also failed his out of state inspection as well. Might have to send him back to the shop and re-inspect later.

Amerks playing yet another new goalie. Fullerton will be in tonight.
He has no previous AHL experience and looks to have played between the ECHL and University of New Brunswick for the past few years.

Rochester with their 3rd icing call in 90 seconds.
The Amerks look completely lost out there.
