I really was busy dammit. Was that a jinx?
How many times do I need to say; yeah you got me there, I did not foresee Romani losing L1 & PP1 duties to a broken collarbone

Robertson has been sensational and also had a sure goal saved by the refs when they blew the whistle early on a loose puck.
Very entertaining run-and-gun hockey so far. You guys have a talented offensive team.

Sure was. Very weird game, with the Soo having at least twice as many chances, but horrendous puck luck. It was frustrating from our perspective, but from a Niagara fan perspective, you just take the lucky bounces and move on. Good road win.
I hope you guys do well going forward, one of the more fun teams I've seen this year.

Too late!!!
We are on a win streak. Go Dogs!!
Happy to see the shots against were more into the normal range. Happy to see Robertson have a decent game. Happy to see that He is back to racking up points.
The Dogs are full of confidence and playing very well together.

Made you look
As an official member of the naysayers, I usually start most conversations with how much I enjoy the players we have this year. It has been fun to watch from my livingroom or the occasional free ticket gift. I have no quarrel with the boys on the ice.
That said, this is a discussion forum and what do you discuss after a winning game? Shots on net, D too far forward, a F line that fails to collapse and protect the house?
After that, it become a lot of "good game" and there is an entire Facebook group dedicated towards that. If you want volume of posts after a win, head there and wave pom-poms until your arms fall off.
Meanwhile, like in life, bad news sells. If I published a headline stating "Everything is Fine", no one would buy the paper. If I said something controversial like "IceDogs Slide After Trade Deadline" lots of opinions would follow.
So, @Countyview don't think for a second a win offends me. I cheer every goal we get. Enjoy those wins while they last!

At what point are you going to start financially supporting the team that is playing very well and entertains you?
Serious question.
Its ok to admit that you are wrong, or partly wrong. The IceDogs clearly are on the better side of some trades and had some excellent drafts. As much as DDD may have screwed things up, he has had some luck and success. Credit when credit is due.
We are obviously going to have a playoff run and we are likely going to have the home team advantage in the first round. That would be a good time to buy some tickets, some beer, some popcorn and maybe the playoff t-shirt!
Much more than decent. A large proportion of shots for both teams in this game were of the breakaway or alone in front variety. I thought he was brilliant.
