North Bay Battalion 2023-24 Season Thread (Part One)

I think the female referee experiment should be over......terrible!!!

How does Therrien not get a star selection?? Kid is tough as nails.

agree wholeheartly this ref is on power trip

 

[dirty12]

Outworked and outplayed

Looked that way at times, but it may just be the bottom six was very much out of sync without Proscyzyn and Pazii. Wilson in for Cajakovic did not help.

 

[belair]

Hell of a game by Christopolous. He must've been close to 30 minutes of ice time. They're definitely missing guys on the left side. I liked #2's game tonight, too. Almost got burned a couple times on entries.

I like what I see from that Wilson kid, too. Nice strides from a 6'4 D. Mobile. Just needs to get stronger.

So because of one person's performance you want to disqualify 50% of the population? I think there is a word for this.

Katie Senuk isn't bad as a female referee. She's had a couple games in the Bay that I've watched. I haven't seen Hillary Brennan though yet.

Someone should tell the Steelheads operations team that the 500 fan Covid limits were dropped a couple of years ago.

 

[HockeyPops]

Fixed.

It's what people do when others point out *their* post was out of line.

Still waiting for the edit on yours...

 

[yacky]

homer announcers this franchise should be mandated to be more proffesional

 

[Uncle]

Still waiting on overage first rounder Liam arnsby offensive breakthrough, lol. Nope just more penalties

 

[SeniorJuniorFan]

Sure, they are a (mostly) one line team, but what a line, and what a massive win in ‘sauga.

Have Dom and Ty suited up in Battalion gear for the last time?

Why are they combing there Hare. With those big ears it probably don't care.

Notes from Tuesday’s workout:

In the good news dept., Tnias was on ice, in red. He was otherwise in usual gear, and participated fully, minus contact, in a variety of drills. He appeared to be match fit, or close to it. I was wondering if his career, let alone this season, might be in jeopardy. Maybe, just maybe, he will make it back.

Alex Cajkovic was on ice after missing a couple of games. There was a #20 on the ice, and our research staff noted Reyth Smith (’23, 5/100) wore the number in 1 pre season game, so maybe him. If so, he has 29 pts. in 30 GP with Powassan. I was only able to count 14 or 15 skaters rather than the usual 18 to 20. Not saying they were not out there, but Cap. Arny, DWake and OVS escaped my prying eyes.

The majority of the players picked him

 

[Uncle]

[SpezzaNoLookDropPass]

The SHG goal against might have been one of the worst sequences of hockey ive seen live

 

[Poster man]

Who had Reyth Smith for the Teddy Bear toss goal?

His family lol.

Ty and Dom cut today. Great to have you back guys. Well done.

 

[Samee987]

Nelson and DDV cut

6 of the 8 cuts were from the OHL!! Shocking when you consider Letang is head coach.
