Kitchener Rangers 2024-25 Season Thread, Part III

[bobber]

Rangers were dominant last night after the first which seemed to go back and forth. Was great to see respect once they got the huge lead. No celly. Just skated back to the bench and sat down. Some teams won't do this no matter how far they get ahead.

Totally forgot they played last night. Ooof. Another game where the other team plays their backup. It never really pays off, however Niagara was in an iffy spot with a bad showing the night before too.

Can't say I ever thought this team would have been the 2nd team clinched this year. Great season.

Brown says Elly is practicing with the no-contact orange jersey on. Whatever that upper body injury is, they're not taking any chances of putting back in too early. I say don't rush it and have him ready with a few games before playoffs.

When you say, "Have him ready with a few games before the playoffs", you are, in fact, rushing him. If I recall correctly, that was the plan for Connor Hall, and that did not end well. The body needs to heal and if it takes until the end of July, so be it. We need Ellinas healthy next year as well.

I'm not rushing anyone, Geo. When he's ready, he's ready.....and maybe he will be ready for playoffs. Unless you have insider info on his injury...

Even the out-of-towners want to sit near our best player. ;-)

Sorry, Blue, please don't take it personally. But we can't set goals like having someone ready for the playoffs. That is everyone's wish but that kind of thinking doesn't help the player. I mentioned Connor Hall as an example, but more recently, it was Mitchell Martin. He probably should have taken the rest of the year off.
