Brantford Bulldogs 2024 - 25 Season Thread, Part I

[Hamilton Bulldogs]

Not a bad game.

Egorov played very well again. Starting to see why he was so highly touted with the kility bee's.

Team needs to be more careful at the opposing teams blue line. Was a problem last season and seems to be returning this year

A couple of the high end guys can be careless with the puck when trying to create near the blueline.

It would seem like they have the green light to do so, but live by the sword, due by the sword.

Egorov was tremendous. His ceiling isn't the same as Leenders, but until Leenders can find his game the team is in good shape.

I've been meaning to bring this up and since they have another PP goal today I might as well.

They have moved Lardis more to the blue line area and it has made them less predictable. He still drifts to the same spot, but not all of the time so it opens up ice and it lets the playmakers do their thing.

The other problem with the PP is the lack of players with strong shots. Really only Lardis, Lavoie or Brown (when he is there) are able to really beat goalies cleanly.

Just need more 5 min powerplays I guess haha

Great game today, really entertaining. My only worry is that Brantford went down to 4 D for what seemed the entire 3rd period. The play was in the Brantford end pretty much all the 3rd period so Hamara, Protz. Moore and Robert’s were playing really hard minutes. I worry how much they will have left in the tank tomorrow.

Agreed, the only problem is that Radley and Krmpotic were getting exploited every time that they were on the ice.

They need to rotate them into the other two lines like they did throughout the second…
The 4 played all but maybe 45 secs that Radley saw the ice on Wednesday too…Krmpotic didn’t see the ice at all.
It’s not sustainable..we tried this the end of last year when we were down a bunch of D

Unpopular opinion but Chen is a bit better than Radley and Kramponic right now.
