Barrie Colts 2024 - 25 Season Thread, Part I

[ShooterMcGavin98]

Should be a good measuring game tonight for both the colts and the IceDogs. Niagara has gotten off to a hot start but I think they will eventually be surpassed by Barrie, Oshawa, and Brampton. I could see them finishing around the 4-5 seed which is higher than I originally thought.

I’m glad to see Brauti having success so far in Niagara. I had a feeling he was due for a breakout year. The trade was good for him as it gave him the opportunity to play top line minutes and a spot on the 1st power play unit.

Wakely out tonight. Hopefully nothing serious. Also interesting that Hillebrandt isn't starting in a big divisional game with no 3 in 3 this weekend.

Edit: they updated the lineup and Hillebrandt is starting.

First time watching Eliason as a Niagara fan was tough damn we missed out has the right toughness you want as a defender without really crossing the line in this game at least I really enjoyed watching him

He did get 2 penalties including an unsportsmanlike but yes he is a great pick up for cheap and an 06

Yeah Eliason has been fun to watch. Has some lapses with bad penalties but honestly it's improved so much since the beginning of the season. Good skater for such a big guy as well. Nice to see Brauti playing well. Felt like he played most of the game.

Colts were solid last night got up 3-1 then blew it before the end of the second and it was tied 3-3 going to the third and the game could have went either way but it was nice to see the team bounce back and make a statement in the third that’s a big win. This Colts team right now is playing like the team everyone expected to and they haven’t had a fully healthy lineup yet. Saw Vaughan didn’t play last night either wonder if the team has a sickness going around or what but it hasn’t effected the teams on ice product.

Vaughn is away at the u17 tournament

Big dub last night, I didn't see the game just watched the highlights. Hopefully Wakely is ok. Good luck to the boys in Erie today

.Saw Vaughan didn’t play last night either wonder if the team has a sickness going around or what but it hasn’t effected the teams on ice product.

Vaughan is away from team as he's participating in the U17 challenge happening in Sarnia right now Nov. 1-9. Vaughan is on Team Red, they lost to the Swedes yesterday 5-3 in preliminary action

Read in the post game article on Barrie 360 that Wakely has an ankle injury. Not sure on the timetable but Marty doesn't think it's long term.
