I hope those Tim Bits coaches apologized to their players and their parents after that 1st intermission debacle. What was supposed to be a thrill for the kids turned into a huge disappointment.
Wilmore on Sunday please.

Thats too bad for the timbits. I'm sure there were upset parents n grandparents in the stands.

Honestly, what were those coaches thinking. This should be 10 minutes of fun and mayhem and chaos and fun for these little kids. Fun being the most important word. I hope someone at the Knights organization noticed that and will either give them another opportunity or do something for those kids ... maybe meet the team or tour the dressing room.

Woolley ice time needs to be watched during playoffs. I am sure Hunter will use him more when we have a decent lead in games. He is young and reminds me of Brad Marsh in his first year...inconsistent at times but will improve.

What happened? Or didn't happen?

EDIT: nvm, found it in the old thread. Sucks they didn't all play. Have those coaches never attended an OHL intermission before?

Fun for sure is #1!
Maybe they discussed it with the parents previously? Still a stupid idea. Maybe they wrre thinking less players per shift, more involvement? I don't know.....can't find a good reason lol.
2 pucks n add 2 nets ( would take seconds n have 2 simultaneous games if your worried about involvement )
Like ya said BobH, it's supposed to be mayhem n fun.

 

[LDN]

Cowan and Barkey chemistry is insane

 

[Knights Watcher]

Any news on Gaz?

Kitchener always does the 4 nets thing with the youngest kids. More kids involved the better. Hope this brings about change.

Just like some posters here, young, inconsistent and inexperienced,

Woolley is developing very nicely and on target as it is expecting of him, he is not 20 years old and not exceptional caliber like others his age, he's doing just fine, give him some space, he is backed up by his team

This must be a first, I am finding myself cheering for Windsor Spitfires tonight, how did that happen?

Weak moment lol

You mean they are going to let down more than 1 fanbase tonight?!?! Lol.

 

[ArielNederland]

Guelph will be hard to beat tommorow. Need to stay disciplined and lock down defensively against them

 

[rve24]

Nah, just the fans that think teams shouldnt earn it on their own n need help lol.
I expect a Spits loss. If they win good on them, and for them as it would be a good ending to a rough, rough season.
If LK wants to get first, the focus is always take care of business yourself.
Take care of what you can control n play thru the rest. No need to cheer on a rival in hopes of help. ( speaking of fans in general, not myself as past volunteering has had me cheer for players/teams elsewhere )

I'll find out how a Windsor fan feels when cheering for a team that spits fire and their ice doesn't melt under their skates.

London will be ready tomorrow, if first is on the line, if first place is locked, Dale will rest some star players, they will still be ready with who shows up for the game (Junior Bs possibly) Go Spits Go ! lol

 

[ArielNederland]

I hope they don't rest anyone if first place is still on the line

 

[Fastpace]

Heck, 19 sec in, time to switch channel and another game lol

I hope they don't rest anyone if first place is still on the line

If it's still on the line, they won't, full team will be on hand

 

[Otto]

If the Otters lose tonight Guelph will clinch 5th. They may rest guys tomorrow

 

[Knightsfan90]

Player to watch for next year
Quin McNamara he is to big and strong for Jr B just crushing kids every shift he has hands as an 06 be interesting if he can make the team

 

[Fastpace]

Wow! Windsor are trying to hook me in as a fan 3-3 after one

 

[tjziel]

Never thought I’d be watching a Sarnia vs Flint game so closely. If there is a goalie that can steal some games, it’s Carter George so I’d rather OS face Saginaw.

 

[tjziel]

If we get a point tomorrow we face Flint. Sarnia has just blanked the Firebirds lol
