Kingston Frontenacs 2024-25 Season Thread, Part II

[leafs4life94]

Nice to see Schenkel get his first win. Not the most exciting game ever but out dominance, Soo wasn't really able to get many great looks.

I think McGowan might be my favourite player in the league, the guy is so dynamic and explosive it seems like he goes from 0 to 100 in a split second.

Several steps of separation but I've heard the split with Lalonde wasn't pretty. Something about him travelling up with team to NB but no knowing he was being traded, then traveling from NB to Soo with Kingston after being traded, plus Cooper brushing him off when he came to the rink on the morning of the NB trip.

To me, trades like Lalondes are really bad GM practices. If I am correct, Cooper had to do a sales job to get him to come to Kingston.

If you are working on a trade for a kid like that, you should have the decency to let him know so that he can pack up his kit in case he does get traded to the Soo.

instead, you are sending A kid to the Soo with just the clothes on his back and maybe a day or 2 extra.

Not a good look.

Is Schekle going to be the goalie that you need down the stretch?

Great win last night. Just took care of business and held them to under 20 shots. As the new look team finds chemistry I think they've got a half decent shot of climbing the standings a bit down the stretch.

Also really like Landon Wright's game. Good motor, a hell of a shot....what a pleasant surprise for a free agent signing.

I agree. Love the effort from last night. Once all the lines get going it’s going to be a hard team to stop.

absolutely love that pickup. Hopefully they can convince him to come back next year with all the guys we lose.

Looks like Dervin's in for Clark, Schenkel starts again.

Great game by Schenkel. That’s what we paid for. Last few minutes of the game came up clutch too with a huge stop.

Great game by the team. And to think they’ve only had a handful of practices together too. They should get better and better as the season goes on.

I love the line of Guindon, Uronen and Battaglia finally together they have a #1 line. I called that back in October/November but they didn’t have as many bodies back then as they do now to do that and they had to spread them out. I found Soto very engaged and that was one of his best games of the season, same with Miedema. Willis with a multi point effort- his first as a Frontenac.

Powerplay was good too. Love seeing that. They struggled for about a month with Uronen and pieniniemi at the world juniors.

Dervin is going to a good one. Wright is very quick.

Dervin is going to a good one. Wright is very quick.

If that’s our 4th line come playoff time it will be the best 4th line in ohl

 

[frontsfan67]

Dervin is going to a good one. Wright is very quick.

Absolutely both are pretty fast. Dervin a more far along development wise but Wright is quicker. Hope that they can push Wrights NCAA year back one as he would be great and get his chance next year when half the team goes. Belleville boy so I’m sure it’s not out of the question

Remember in Aug when a bunch of people here thought Guindon was a big overpay and not a 1C and i said i think he puts up 80 on this team? -He came as advertised imo.
I remember someone saying "lets revisit this in nov or dec and see how that goes when i said it.

I really hope some NHL team gives him a shot in the A.
