For the second time this season the Milwaukee Admirals have a goaltender taking home the CCM/AHL Player of the Week honors.
It has just been announced that Marek Mazanec has been given the distinction for his efforts this last week. He won all three starts, stopped eighty of eighty-three shots on goal, has a 1.00 GAA, and a 0.964 SV%.
Mazanec is the second Admiral this season to take home this award. His battery-mate in net Scott Darling was given the honor for the week ending 12/29/2013.
Thoughts on Marek Mazanec’s recent performances? Are the Admirals spoiled for choice with their goaltenders heading into the post-season?

As I stated in a MilwaukeeAdmirals.com feature last month the Admirals can’t go wrong as far as their options in goal with either Marek Mazanec, Scott Darling, or even Magnus Hellberg who has won four of six starts with Cincinnati. My guess is Maz gets the start Friday against Charlotte, gets his crystal between periods, and then Darling faces Chicago to close the season in what might be a completely meaningless game.
Totally agree, we are spoiled in goal. I still don’t want to face Chicago in the first round, though, as you know Jake Allen will start all if possible. I would much rather play Toronto first.
