Just looked at the game sheet, zebra gave McCallum a 2 minor for slashing. Wow!

 

[190 is almost 206]

Correct Spez, McCallum did slewfoot Bloom at the final buzzer and the official actually had his arm up. Guess will see what shakes out?
Saying maybe collar bone for Zito.

Tough guy all night behind his bubble.

Surely will be reviewed right?

Following in his brother's footsteps

Following in his brother's footsteps

That makes sense. Thanks, I didn’t realize that was his brother.

Dear Josh Bloom......outstanding game. I applaud you

Nikita.....couple of nice dishes. I applaud you.

Justin Ertel...much better effort tonight. Keep shooting that puck.

Notes from Saturday’s workout:

Luc the “Bruzer” was back on ice and in regular gear. There was no sign of Pasquale Zito, status unknown. At least there is some justice, but I suspect the Troops will miss the contributions of Pasquale much more than PBO will miss a 6th defender.

Zito under concussion protocol now.

London/North Bay final would be electric!!!!

 

[Samee987]

Zito is a huge loss. I had him or McDonald as playoff MVP so far. Assuming Wakley centers that line now.

Update: Zito gone to the hospital with his arm in a slin

I’ve heard that he has stitches and under concussion protocol. Will be back if we make it to the next round.

Game Day Troop nation!!

#21 in #27. 11 Forwards, 7 Dmen.

Does Simpson get the start after getting lite up in the Bay..probably?

 

[Poster man]

PP will be our Achilles Heel. Test another zero for two(maybe 3) effort tonight. What is worse is how predictable it is and how easy it is to defend. Plus PP1 uses between 1:30 and 1:40 of every PP. I have never seen a Team use the same group for the full PP every time. Am I nitpicking because I see it as a massive issue.

So true:
Last night, game tied at 3

PENALTY
3RD 11:08 Chase Stillman

Go Troops Go!

Let’s pack the barn tonight.

Yes missing Zito has hurt them.

It needs to be quick, hard passes along the perimeter. Guys are holding onto it too long and they're not forcing any Petes to commit defensively. They need to get the box moving to open up lanes through the middle.

Therrien draws in tonight

How did your conference final go? What about last year? Surely you put up a fight in round 1?

 

[Zebra]

Congratulations to the Battalion and their loyal fans!

You guys are tremendous-you played with all your heart and souls!

Stand proud you’re so strong

Series was just as good as the 7 gamer in 2016. Congrats on another strong season. Let’s do it again sometime.
