They better.
Need to win both games this weekend. Can’t go 1-4 to start the season that itself will already be a hole to climb out of this early and we have everyone back. No excuses- they have to win and go 3-2 after this weekend

What a game
game of the season so far obviously.
Battaglia keeps producing, same with Soto too and 8 different goal scorers!
With Velliaris instigating in the final 5 mins of play after that hit on uens. Lukas Moore should be playing his first career OHL game on Sunday.

Kingston played well but I was more surprised with how poorly NB played. I barely noticed Romani or Van Steensel at all. McIvor played well but was let down by some awful defense.
I still can't get over how feisty Uronen is - I may have had the wrong impression in that he was more of a pure sniper but the guy is full of grit and loves the physical side of the game.
Soto was all over the ice and looked great, Battaglia solid as always, and as much as I tend to focus on offense, Guindon is the perfect definition of a 200 ft player and made a couple nice defensive plays.
Disappointedly, I still thought Weir looked too slow for this level. If there were was a game to get that 4th line regular minutes it'd have been tonight, but Weir just looked a constant step behind.
Unrelated to the on ice product, I'm not a fan of the new in game hosts - I know they're only 3 games in but it seems like there's still a ton of nerves and a lack of self- confidence that's needed for a position like that.

Agree with all of this. Literally all of it. And I thought the same thing for weir in the 3rd watching him.
These hosts suck. Wish they could bring back Sam but she’s onto bigger and better things
Battaglia now leading the league in scoring by two points. Soto and Guidon are tied for 6th.

Battaglia hasn’t had a game under 2 pts so far.
3-2-2 and 4 tonight. Obviously won’t keep up this torrid pace but impressive regardless.
Last year he had 2 pts through 4 games- finished with 65, this year 11 through 4.
As I predicted- looks like he will have a big points boost this year. Bound for 80+ points this year.

I think it is safe to say that Vegas might have a lot to do with how he is playing. I think he went to their camp and saw the goal scorers and snipers they had, but they lacked the gritty in-your-face winger. That they needed to see some toughness out of him. remember, he did not play at all last year.
Weir is a rookie he is gong to take time. Give him the first couple of months and see what he looks like
Again it is hard to do, and nervous and worried that if I screw up, I will be gone and have to still be there.

I don't think @OMG67 is being a hater he is just saying to obvious. It is a good start adn shows tht he has the drive but it is a long season now he has t keep doing tht.
It is the same as I am chiming in on Niagara leading the league in wins when everyone said they would not be good. Am I happy to be right? Yes. Do I think they will stay undefeated? Even I am not that optimistic.
You don't want to mention who's leading the league in PIMs ?

Seriously though it is an impress start for Battaglia.

Oh no. I get it. But it is so early. Right now, the Knights are on pace for a 46 point season! I couldn’t help myself so I posted it there….I just thought I would give you a hard time!
