Kingston Frontenacs 2024-25 Season Thread, Part II

[Houndzfan20]

Schenkel has been playing way better. Very happy for him. Good to see.

Probably just jitters the first few weeks with a new team. Hopefully this is the Charlie we see from here on out. If we get this type of play from him come playoffs we will be very dangerous.



Big game today.

Ivankovic always plays really well against us. I assume they’re going to start him. Martone Rehkopf, and the rest of the crew just had huge games.

Going to be a battle.



Brampton, Owen sound, Kitchener, Peterborough and Barrie is our next 5. 3 hard teams and 2 easier ones. Hopefully we can win 2/3 of the harder games and both of the easier ones against Peterborough and Owen sound.

I know it's a little scary when you spend some assets and trade a really good team guy and get a goalie that comes in and is shaky. But to be fair, he had 4 years of the same defensive strategy, and same defensive players and that just becomes second nature. And to come in and play a bunch with new guys and not much time to learn, kind of a recipe for disaster.

I'm really happy for him that he's getting reps and learning what worked in the soo doesn't work in Kingston and what is working in kingston can only be improved upon with time and practice with the guys. excited to see what you guys can do in the playoffs.

Cheers

Absolutely probably bigger learning curve for goalies opposed to skaters.

That game should be 5-0 right now. Gavin Betts is unreal

This Brampton team is really good I definitely don’t want to play them come playoffs. Sucks because they’ll probably end up 4-7 and we will end up 2-5 so we have pretty good odds of playing them I think

One of the worst efforts I have seen this season. What’s up with the last 2 nights? Must win tomorrow in Owen sound. Just brutal game today. Need to take 4/6 this weekend

Laid a MASSIVE hit and then fought Chiarot. Bishop slipped and then chiarot it looked like he punched him once or twice when he was laying on the ice.

Ouch, You guys need to do something if you will have trouble with the 5,6,7. The last thing you need is to be knocked out in the first round again.

My guess is that they are exhausted still. Tough schedule, another round of sickness and it seemed like they had no jump or push. Mind you Brampton is a very good team

They are 12-4 to start 2025, they had a bad game - it’s not like it’s done and we may as well look at next season

I am not saying that it is panic time. Far from it, 7-3 is a good ten games. But it is teams like Brampton that you have to be able to score against and play against.
