Very nice

 

[ArielNederland]

2nd time beck has been tossed from the game

 

[Harley49]

WOOHOO!!!! Great game by Willmore !!! Momentum has now changed !!! Boys didn’t want to lose ….

 

[Matt93]

When is the ceremony to unveil the statue for Willmore in front of the arena?

 

[Knights77]

Slew foot comes with a suspension no? Hope so.

 

[rve24]

Good 2nd period. Buried a couple chances....
Almost got them where they want them

 

[cub]

we have a goalie, good win.

we have a goalie, good win.

Not taking anything away from Willmore but tonight's game was much different. The knights were able to take away the passing lanes and keep the Pete's outside. Much better defensive game.

 

[Fastpace]

Knights didn't play their best tonight, were very nervous, but sometime it's good to be nervous.

That was a gutsy call by Dale to put Willmore in, his latest chess piece (a Knight) was the right move

Owen's slewfoot will not got unnoticed by the league this time, that is one of the most dangerous move in hockey.

Pack up your gears boys you have a bus to catch !!!

I am now waiting for comments of how our new goalie does not control rebounds or can't handle the puck or he got lucky & etc etc. ...

 

[ArielNederland]

Good game! Willmore was excellent considering the pressure coming in cold. Good luck for the next game boys

Willmore looked fine; composed.
Two 17 year old 'yutes' leading the way for the Knights (Cowan and Barkey).
Humphrey with the seeing-eye shot, and then the Belle River Bomber ices it for the Knights.
Othmann line had a lot of zone time vs the McCue line, but were kept off the board. Avon...really like this kid's game.
What's Peterborough thinking playing Spearing??? Even if he begged the coaches to play, common sense should prevail. His jaw is wired shut, and Federkow's hit possibly added to his recovery time.
Solid win tonight.
Fair to say that Beck gets at least a one-game suspension? That would be a tough loss for the Petes given his dominance at the dot, and his overall offensive play. He was also -3 or -4 on the night.
For those complaining about Diaco's lack of scoring, keep in mind that in this series Hunter had to tweak the lines to match the Petes' depth up front. That meant dropping Diaco to the 3rd line to play with less offensively gifted players.

Hedon rating: 10/10

Bark's Goal was a nice one!!

Times has changed so are the suspension. I remember David Bowen getting 5 playoffs games for slewfooting an Owen Sound players

If you are referring to David Bolland Vs. Owen Sound, that wasn’t Slewfoot. He got it for kicking.

Edit. Otto is on it.

Or.. Bolland was "man handled" .. depends who you talk to

 

[dmead]

Isnt a slewfoot an automatic 2 games?

Hopefully my pvr saved this game cause i need yo review that Robertson hit on Humphries. From my vantage point that was a heavy elbow to the head, but I want to review before I get riled up.

... and the helmet is now 6 for 6. He came out i retirement for this game. Desperate timez call for desperate measures.

I agree, but you can tell the team played more relaxed in front of him.

If I remember correctly, he got tied up with Bobby Ryan right?

David Bolland
4 games
Kicking

Are we talking of the same game Otto, you say Bolland got a match penalty for kicking. I am thinking in 2006 playoffs but maybe I am wrong.

Hope you are getting all your strenght back and life is returning to normal again for you, keep the high spirit !!!
