Interesting, they have posted and announced Ryder’s 2 game automatic suspension. But nothing for Sim yet.

Maybe they can appeal the instigator not being called on the fight, when it should have been?

EDIT: Nevermind, Sim 2 games posted now.

Simmer can use the rest he is a key performer come playoff time. His style of play means he will have a nick or two that can use a break.

Sarnia 3 games in 2 1/2 days. Could be a tired bunch.
No Barkey, Sim, Boulton (edit: Van Gorp)
Bidgood, Hawery in.

 

[LDN]

Spencer is playing 4th line LW

 

[Geff]

No Barkey, Sim, Boulton

Or EVP.

Hopefully Barks and EVP get a few more games in before playoffs. Not that we “need” them.

 

[Knights Watcher]

What are the camera people following. Certainly not the puck.

 

[nelli27]

Van Bommel...buy a lottery ticket tonight.

 

[backwoods]

I hate to say it but dam u guys look good.. after beating us in the shwa last week you guys are the real deal. Goodluck in playoffs I don't think u need it.

 

[Knightsfan90]

I hope Barkey back for playoffs I can't believe the league let that dirty play go unpunished

 

[EvenSteven]

This must be “mouth guard misconduct day” in Sarnia. Geez.

That could happen as early as Tuesday.

Things are good. Scoring by committee. No 100 point guys.

Nice to see Cowan and Haltunen heating up at exactly the right time. When we meet up against the biggins come the playoffs we need them firing on all cylinders.

 

[LDN]

built for the playoffs!

I think Hawery is going to be a good one. Plays a 200 foot game. I am glad Mark and Rob kept him. I have a feeling to get Sam McCue it was going to be him or no deal. Read is playing well and Bigood looked good as well. Spencer could be a big power forward if his skating was a bit better. I felt sorry for Sarnia kids because I think the coaching staff has no idea wtf is going on. Why not use your timeout when you are under siege before the score gets out of hand.

[LDN]

A big week.

Home and home with Guelph.
Saginaw and Windsor

Opportunity to clinch and get prepped for the playoffs.

For tomorrows game I’m guessing no Boulton, Sim, Barkey, Allen

STONE COLD

 

[Knights77]

I have to agree with the Windsor poster (OHL) when he said a culture change is needed, the one player that was in the car with Allen is having a very good season as a vet and hence didn’t get any team punishment. Even though curfew was violated etc.
Also, speaking of previous posts in case you didn’t know….the Winnipeg Jets brass know all and never make mistakes, in case you were wondering

Two part question for posters: with playoffs coming up, do you play Elliot until the wheels fall off, or maybe give Medvedev game 4 after being up 3-0 to give a 17yr old much needed playoff experience as he is the future - and, do you give some big minute eater players rest in the same situation and play some kids to achieve both rest and experience for the future?

 

[rve24]

I'd give Medvedev a start in game 2 or 3 ( if 1/2 B2B I'd give the youngin game 2)
As far as lines, Dale will.probly run the big guns until a game gets lopsided then rest the top6 Fs, Top3 D and let em all get rest by ending the series early.

 

[superdee]

Can’t make game but would a poster if anyone could grab me one that I could get Friday
