Had a good 1st and 3rd, 2nd period he struggled. Made some big saves, if we get that out of him every night, I think the team would be okay.

Rosenzweig was good tonight, little disappointed they didn't create more traffic in front of him. He made some good saves, but he got a lot of easy ones as well.
Not sure I saw Gee out there after the giveaway in the 2nd. Kuzmin really had an off night, tried to force passes way too much, made some poor decisions pinching.
Felt like we got our butts kicked in the offensive zone faceoffs, can only remember a couple clean wins, seemed like every faceoff on the powerplay was an L and instant dump.

I’ve been saying that would likely be the case since the day of the trade. He looked good in 1st and decent in the 3rd at times but looked shaky in the 2nd. I don’t like wildly inconsistent in a goalie. I don’t mind if he’s just “good” or “solid” as long as he’s consistent. I’m still willing to give him time but so far, still not thrilled. As far as being surprised by the win, I’m not really. Flint is a different team with Kressler in the lineup, I’ll take Deline over Terry any day and even though Niagara has 87 new bodies they have played a game and watched the film. Flint was just erratic on too much tonight and didn’t convert their chances. Rozenweig looked good and the Dogs got some players. Zito is gonna have himself a season.
Deline is looking to be traded, Panwar has left for Peterborough…. Flint may have just screwed themselves with their choices

Why do you think Flint screwed themselves with the choices?
I am surprised that Terry is the choice over Deline on D.

plenty of offence on D from Kuzmin, D’mato, and sooner than later from Bertucci might be the reason.
My thought going in was Terry might be better for this firebirds team, and Deline more value in trade.
But what real issue could Piercey have playing on a real contender that wants him???
Website had the trade - Panwar to Peterbourogh. For three picks. Then it was gone... Nothing on Pete's website or on ours?
Website is weird. They haven't even put the Petrou trade on there yet.
Do you remember what the three picks were listed?
Petrou is for a 7th round , still on the site. They never had Panwar info as it was completed yesterday…..

Petrou trade not listed on the official site still.

I was asking what the return for Panwar was, since it was up and down.
Let me try to clear up this -
Petrou traded for 7th round. Only off Oshawa page. Not on Firebirds or OHL page.
Panwar - Trade was up on the Firebirds website for a very short time for 3 picks. I believe a 3rd and 5th were part of it. It is now removed though (last I checked).

Sounds like you may have some inside knowledge as to what the picks are.That’s a pretty solid return for Panwar considering the OA situation around the league. As far as Deline and Piercey wanting out, that’s a real bummer. I was just getting over the fact that Othmann wanted out and wasn’t going to report. Last year.

Lol yeah. Guy creates a burner account to come on here and post trade rumours. Who knows, may be true, may not be true. Huge amount of skepticism until he has some history.
By the sounds off original post, seemed a bit emotional.
Someone lose their billet?

Do you think Flint will be looking to sell??? With Sudbury getting Chromiak to commit today and possibly Dvorsky not too far behind it appears the Wolves have some interesting decisions to make soon. So much exceptional young talent that it could be possible these two teams may hook up for a deal with Othmann being the cornerstone of a deal. Maybe an American born player from Sudbury would make his way back home sort to speak. Of course this is all just purely speculation on my part. But something to watch for as the season progresses.

I asked a while back and can’t seem to find the response on what the conditions were on the Will Cranley pick? I’m trying to update the 67’s draft database and those picks are the only variable. Thanks again if somebody knows the picks and/or years.
FWIW, I think he’ll have a big year for you. So much talent, nice guy with the kids who just had an off year with a tremendously young defence in front of him.

Flint is in it to win it, I would expect them to add. Most people pick them to be one of the top 3 teams in the West.
Panwar was just a numbers move, can't play with 5 OA's.
Someone claimed it was like a 3/5 or 4/6, but no one has posted anything concrete other than on these message boards.
I guess we’ll get an idea of where the two teams sit in about 5 days! I think few teams are more likely to buy this year than Flint. It’s a for sure go for it season for them. If…..IF…..things do go south horribly and they end up selling I for one wouldn’t mind seeing Musty and a bunch of picks going back Flint’s way.
Sudbury isnt close to being a Mem Cup Contender so why would they be buying. They have a good young club and work towards being a cup contender next year with their good 04s, 05s and 06s especially if Hage comes.
