North Bay Battalion 2022-23 Season Thread

[Samee987]

Petrov?? MIA. Should be dominating this league!

 

[Poster man]

If that was a good weeks practice, Yikes!
please tell me what I’m missing in #9? just don’t see it sorry.
agree with Spez 100%, Matt Sookram would be perfect PA man.

I think the battalion would be better spreading the scoring a bit with Wakely or Romani or acquired player with Jackson & Petrov.
You must have seen Ertel’s playmaking ability with Jackson & Petrov. I think you would see it with Arnsby & MacDonald if that were a line as well.

Agreed spread the scoring. Sprinkle some bottom 6 into top and top into bottom. Preferably romani up and armsby down however that works.
Ertel talented but the multiple stupid 2 minute minors every game is a buzzkill.

They said Outwater was traded because they already had enough scoring forwards up front - really? where were they last night?

Liked the stupid minors is a buzzkill; that should be fixed.
Arnsby is not moving down. Even though he does not accumulate points, he creates offence with forced turn overs. Maybe switch Ertel & VanSteensel.
Though Ertel-Arnsby-MacDonald would be a formidable 2nd line imo.

im not panicking but #9Ertel as got to improve, as not been effective yet for a drafted player

 

[The Green Tank]

I would like to see #16 11 19 together. They played well near the end of the season and playoffs last year.

Ertel is still adjusting. I’ll give him another 6-8 games.

Early in the season. No reason to panic.

look like a week off of flatness, not overly worried

i think your seeing what he is. he wasn't a big scorer in any league hes played in.

 

[three dog night]

Nice over time win

North Bay is not as good as they think they are.
Jackson has the highest points on the team with 10, that’s 26th in the league. Misa the 15 yr old in Saganaw has 14.
Petrov is second with 9 which is 49th. Then Nelson , after that is Ertel with 4. WTF!!! 4 points for a 19yr old. Arnsby has 3 and Terasevich has 3. These boys are 19 years old and should be dominant.
Beckett Sennecke For Oshawa is 16 he has 9 points. Too much attitude and selfishness. Unless the make changes this team is going nowhere.

It’s pretty clear the battalion need a legit top six RW if they are intent on a top four finish.
However, half a dozen teams have 10 GP. Two including NB have 7 GP, MacDonald & Winslow 2 GP. Add a reasonable 4-5 pts in 3 games for Jackson & Petrov and NB has top 10 scorers.

#15 21 29 played a great game today. They are building chemistry and confidence. Sima was all over the ice.

Lol what the hell is this

 

[View from section 9]

Still sloppy but better than Thursday. I know it's early but I don't get the hype over this Barrie team.
Good:
15, 21, 29, 9, 8, 22, 11, 14, 28

Middle of the road:
2, 3, 4, 26, 31

Need to be better:
19, 24, 10, 12, 16

If they hope to go deep this year 19 & 24 need to take care of the puck better. I am normally a fan of 10, 12 & 16 but they seemed to struggle mightily at times. In the end a win is a win.

On to the normally tough 3 game stretch from Windsor to London to Guelph, good luck boys.

Lol what the hell is this

Another "fan" who only looks feels individual goals and assists hold more value than team wins.

Great analysis on a 5-3 team that just got back two OA's 3 games ago and one of their best D just about to come back, don't quit your day job

Of course. However it doesn’t change his body language

Defensively..Lukin may be our best D.......looks confident..waiting for the "hit"....

He looks improved at least. The battalion will have an enviable top 4 of Nelson, Mathurin, Christopolous, and Lukin next season. I think Kennedy is going to be a good one too.

This can't be good news......"Mathurin, who experienced discomfort in a shoulder after playing his first game of the season Thursday night, a 4-2 home-ice loss to the Ottawa 67’s, is expected to see a specialist in the coming days."
