Hamilton Bulldogs & Wheeling Nailers 2013-2014 Part 3

[habitue*]

I know what you are saying dude, and well done, but John Ferguson had no support, no money, no training, and sacrificed his head and body for Habs.

I think Ferguson should be recognized by Habs more than he is. He was a brutal, killing insane MOFO. He would do anything to help Habs win. Anything.

He protected Gros bill, and Yvan as a rookie, Savard, Pocket Rocket, Lemaire as a rookie, and so many other great Habs players.

There is no comparison. You are reaching comparing this kid to Ferguson.

But well done. If Fournier has this attitude, he will not match JF, but he could still be crucial when Habs contend.

My dream is to have a killing french enforcer on Habs, who also has decent skills. Man I would love that. When a Quebec guy is tough, no one is tougher.

That guy is playing for Colorado: Bordeleau.

 

[Megaforce]

Hamilton 6-2 over Cleveland (Lake Erie) Monsters, sounds like a great game. I didn't see it but I wrote it up for the CTV Montreal site based on a variety of other sources.

 

[Goldthorpe]

P.K Subban
Andrei Markov
Alexei Emelin
Nathan Beaulieu

*David Desharnais.

IMHO Desharnais is more a product of our system than Emelin is, but otherwise point well made.

Dogs down 4-1 with 20 left. Goal by Thomas unassisted. 2 goals waived off for the mini-Habs

2 goals in 2 nights? He must be reading Whitesnake's posts!

I was going to say the same thing if he keeps this up maybe we can stop complaining.

I've watched Bordeleau quite a bit when he played for Lake Erie Monsters. Now that he's playing for the Avalanche, there isn't a snowball's chance in hell that Roy will let Sakic trade him away.

Are you comparing Bordeleau to John Ferguson?

Are you comparing Bordeleau to John Ferguson?

Thre will always only ONE John Ferguson.

I was answering to a poster who was talking ogf getting the best Quebec born enforcer playing nowadays.

 

[SquiddFX]

Bordeleau hasn't fought in awhile. He's a good fighter but he hasn't fought since he lost to Luke Gazdic.

I guess he's sad

 

[Fazkovsky]

I hope Thomas keeps it up so he can get a call up sometime in the season.

 

[DekeLikeYouMeanIt]

maybe we can stop complaining.

You know that's never gonna happen.

Well, he's more useful than Parros.

 

[Tyson]

I hope Thomas keeps it up so he can get a call up sometime in the season.

I agree, having only 25% of all players 5'9 and under in the league is not high enough.

Yeah but do we have a choice right now? Keep in mind he could be the one replacing Gionta if he is shipped or even next year. I know he is small but so is Andrighetto too. We have to adapt now there is no other choice unless MB makes a move. I wouldn't mind giving a shot to Ghetto too.

My Lines Next year:

Hudon-St Pierre-Andrighetto
Bozon-Leblanc-Collberg
Holland-Vail-Thomas
Tarnasky-Nattinen-Blunden

Tinordi-Pateryn
Beaulieu-Ellis
Thrower-Dietz
Of course some of these could be with the big club.

 

[goforit]

So, what's up with Dietz guys?

Has he been playing well lately? I just saw that he's only played 26 games. Healthy scratch or injured?

Thanks!

A very talented group of fwd's, the problem is five will need to clear waivers. Leblanc and Naatinen being two recent high draft choices, that may draw scrutiny from NHL teams. Where are Nevins, Fournier and Crisp in the ECHL, not very likely IMO.

Near the start of the season he got hurt. Broke his hand I think it was.

Crisp IMO should stay his overage season. Nevins and Fournier I couldn't find a spot I liked them at.

Collberg and Hudon are very talented, but their physical size in the AHL will be a detriment, no doubt about that. Hudon has a bad back & concussion problems already, these are big red flags for the AHL game. but true.

Yeah, just look at how much gallagher struggled.

How has the Hamilton defense looked without Beaulieu?
