YES!!! Do something uniquely London in that break. Or just skip right to the "Take Me Home Country Road" suitable time of the game and gets a bit of crowd engagement.
Oh okay, on the scoresheet it looks like he got 2 minutes for the hit and then the match for something else. Can't call 2 penalties for 1 play, so he had to of done something else beyond the hit. I just didn't see anything.
Not sure I understand the call or how to have called that…wreckless endangerment?
They called a match for attempt to injure, which slamming someones head into the glass warrants. If that was the only penalty called, that would make sense. But the 2 minute minor also called for checking from behind, tells me he didn't get the match penalty for the hit, it was for something else he did, which is where my confusion comes in, because I didn't see him do anything else beyond the hit.
Ya...I talk to him from time to time. Fun guy to talk with. No harm in discussing card management..it's bit us in the ass before
Pretty sure the kid challenged McCue from the penalty box based on his gestures of how tall he is from McCue.
Therrien (NB) made a far from legal hit on (Barkey?) before puck arrived for positioning. McCue grabbed the smaller, younger player and started throwing before he was ready for the retribution.
Yes..I was there. The gestures from McCue came before this. Not disputing the instigator
One player alone how ever good he may be does not win team games by himself. doesn't matter if there were 60 shots against there is a need for someone to score and prevent from scoring, and of course a master and his team behind the bench to direct it all.. Simpson did had an extremely great performance, that's expected of him, it is why the Knights went out and got him for, to stops pucks. The reminder of his team also got their jobs done, they did killed 9 penalties including a 5 minutes and a 1.56mi. of 3 on 5. and went and scores enough goals to win the 2 points. Very pleased with Simpson's performance and very please also (except for the 9 penalties) of the overall performance of the team as well. The Petes did show up and played very well for this game and could as easily won the 2 points if it wasn't for a strong Knights team in front of them..
Hey buddy ! If they player is playing the OHL, he's of age and of size. If he's going to dish out hits and dirty ones at that he must be ready at all time because someone is coming for him. Cheers
Excellent post nelli27
No disagreement here. Need 2-3 forwards. The D looks quite good! SO SO happy we have Simpson!
In Julien's case I wouldn't worry too much, he's been bitten at least four times by goal posts in his last 3 games, the chances are there. Also we do see from time to time players coming back from NHL camps with specific instructions to work on, this sometime takes time to settle into their plays, they'll be fine. As a fan I do miss Sim, he has got some grits and is very solid with lots of speed on skates playing his 19yr old season, he should help this team a great deal when he comes back. Cheers!
Very nice! What about Arrowsmith?
I agree Julien will start potting some soon hopefully!
Was this because of that hit on Smith? If so, what a horrible suspension. I was watching and thought Smith embellished his fall big time. Went down pretty easy for 6'5, 206 lbs. Call the hit from behind if you want, but you better damn well call the embellishment too.
