Didn’t know where to post this, so decided on the mains - I thought it could create a discussion nonetheless.

There was only one player on the Bandits who didn't record a point lol

 

[PostBradMalone]

Why would these two teams play a game, even in exhibition? This is like an NHL team facing an SPHL club and being shocked at the result.

 

[Guttersniped]

Well, I guess Dominick Compione should be shamed here for not getting a point.

Get it together Dominick.

Australian soccer team once beat some pacific island like 30-0 in a WC qualifier in the early 2000s. Probably why they were moved to the Asia zone for WC qualifiers.

Brooks treats its program way more seriously then any other Jr.A team with 2-3 hours of ice time per day and dedicated off ice training for every player. On top of all this they acquire a solid amount of ex major junior players.

 

[Vancouver Canucks]

That's a score you mostly see in EA NHL games.

Get it together Dominick.

That's why his name is Compione instead of Campione.

I'd be willing to bet Brooks stunk that day. There's a huge meat packing industry there and if you're not used to it the smell would be a factor!

Holy f***, did Makar suit up for them again or something .

 

[Rubi]

Sorry I missed the game. Not.

 

[DearDiary]

Rigged game, dark money at play. Investigate the goalie immediately before he leaves the country

 

[robsenz]

That's a score you mostly see in EA NHL games.

Those are also logos you see in create a team.

 

[Vancouver Canucks]

Yes, haha. Now I look at them, yes.

Very interesting.

This isn't even the only crazy score you'll find with Brooks.

During the regular season last year, they beat Blackfalds 17-0.

How do you win 23-0 and no player scores more than 6 points?

 

[Howie Hodge]

How do you win 23-0 and no player scores more than 6 points?

Called balanced scoring!

Or is that a balanced beating?

 

[Discipline Daddy]

How do you win 23-0 and no player scores more than 6 points?

If I was coaching my team, by the time they get, say NINE goals up, I'm double shifting my bottom 6, putting my PKers out on the PP, and basically treating it like a practice.

 

[joestevens29]

Even if they scored on every shot they still would've lost.

Reminds me when we lost 13-1. I faced 73 shots and we had 7

 

[HisIceness]

The bandit should be wearing a hockey mask. At least the Lumberjack has a stick

 

[SUX2BU]

Wisconsin's goalie will be called up for the leaves

 

[Jerzey Devil]

Running up the score that much is pretty disrespectful imo.

They’re both Junior A teams

 

[Holden Caulfield]

They’re both Junior A teams

Technically, yes. In reality SIJHL play level is lower than most Jr B teams in AB/BC. I know myself I got traded from MJHL team to an SIJHL in my playing days (or my MJ team just cut me, and told me id been offered a spot with an SI team, can't recall now). I left Junior A and went to uni instead of reporting to an SIJHL team. And the MJHL is already a half step below AJ.
