Barrie Colts 2024 - 25 Season Thread, Part I

[Jimmy582]

People see it, it's whether the frugal owner will do anything is the biggest question. Hire/ promote Dylan for the remainder of the season and hope the hell he can turn this shit show around.

That’d be the only option and it’s a option howie wouldn’t do in my opinion. He most certainly won’t bring in someone and pay 2 coaches for the remainder of the year. I think he’ll let Marty ride this out and hope things turn around. Which they still very much could the roster is there. The start of the season for the colts was rocky aswell and it took until late October into November for the team to really start playing well and that could be the case here might just take time but the way there losing getting out shot by teams rebuilding is very concerning. This team shouldn’t have an issue getting 4 goals a night. If this ship doesn’t get turned around they’ll be a lot of kids wanting out next season that’s for sure.

I didn't watch the game but didn't like the lines that were posted. I can't comment on the coaching since I'm not around the team. I would say as with anything, it will take some time to find a rhythm and some chemistry. Let's hope they sort it out over the next few weeks and get rolling like the can. It's disappointing to see a box score that showed 2 colts on the game sheet for the other team. And a Vaughan Scrap to boot. He should know better than to take Derbridge off with him though...haha.

I'm looking forward to tomorrow night, I haven't seen Windsor play live yet this year. I hope the Colts show up stronger than last night!

The way I see it…teams should be made of parts that complement one another. Now I don’t know what’s going on behind the scenes, but this team is probably the most talented team in the league, and sometimes that doesn’t translate to success on the ice.

I hope we can figure things out and learn to play as a team, with everyone committing to a role.

If Barrie loses both games on the weekend is it the end of Marty has a coach.

When we won the memorial cup in 2015 the Gens made four trades at deadline. It took over a month for the team to get going. You guys are blowing it out of proportion in my opinion for no reason.. you have plenty of time to adjust. The colts have a great team. Better to hit this bump in road now then when playoffs start..

 

[OHLColtsPuck]

I agree 100%. Have to give them time and great point about hitting bump in road now vs. in March.

I hope to see 3 lines put together tonight with line 4 a true line 4.

Go Colts Go

I agree it takes time but to act like the colts are the only team that’s made trades and no other team has is not accurate every team has to adjust and find chemistry not just Barrie. they gotta play better and work harder for starters. No reason to get out shot and out played majorly vs teams with 1-2 nhl picks when u have 9 picks

Howie the owner will never fire him he won’t go find another coach and pay 2 coaches unless they promote an assistant which I don’t think will happen non of the assistants have much experience coaching so that would be a big risk. Just gotta hope for the best at this point.
