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

[HockeyPops]

Looking at the game sheet yesterday (saginaw), how do they come up with the spirit going 3/10 on the PP? I get 6 minors and a major!!

if a Club has an advantage due to a five-minute major or match penalty, that Club is always credited with having one more advantage than the number of power-play goals it scores during that advantage, because the penalty does not expire. A new advantage begins after each power-play goal. For example, if Team A scores three goals during a major penalty, it is credited with four advantages.

OK. Thanks for that info. Never heard of it.

Can't help feeling that if this team goes out early in the playoffs it will be because of penalty problems.

Put in his time and earned it. Great story for a kid from New Liskeard! Hope it's just the start. So good in front of the net

Another one of the many reminders of the passage of time. Seems like only last week he was putting up a monster 61 goal season with the Troops. Now, here he is, making his NHL debut at 26?

8 year trivia flashback: Mike Amadio and Justin Brazeau both scored a goal on Mar. 17, 2016 (same team), and Feb. 19, 2024 (same league).

Should have been 3 max, doesn’t help that the Director of Officiating is Conrad Hache the father of Braden Hache who plays for Saginaw.

Time ti bounce back on Friday.

 

[190 is almost 206]

Great bounce back game. Huge win!!!
Rough night for Nelson, on for all 3 goals against. He hasn’t looked right since his recent injury.

...just a side note to Battalion or Cogeco....DO NOT have a kiddie nite or let them near a microphone....I did like the playbyplay guy although not much depth by regular color guy....Dennis Desrosier..from Liskeard!

Those two clowns Jack Hennigan and Drew Jackson are the referees again tonight probably do the game tomorrow too.
Terrible

Second big win in Michigan. Keep it going tomorrow fellas.
Sandis Vilmanis has 18 goals in 18 games since joining the Battalion. Great trade.

All things considered a decent effort vs Sarnia today and a satisfying overall weekend. Can't help wondering if today would have been different with Dom in net but he did earn a break.

Romani with only 1 goal in his last 7 games. Feeling the pressure?

Teams focussing on shutting down our top line and thankfully we upgraded the 2nd line with Vilmanis.
I’d be more worried about Nelson than Romani.

Right now I don't see either Nelson or DD31 playing pro next season!

Yep that 20 year old NHL standard entry level contract signed goalie that won’t be playing Pro next season lol

Ya you

0 benefit to Nelson's development returning for an OA season. He'll be just taking the next step. Reduced minutes in pro is better than the 20+ in whatever sorta defensive system they play now. I think Dom has a slight chance of returning, goalies take awhile, but with him being under contract and checking the Jets goalie pipeline they have a Journeyman vet starting in the AHL with 2 other prospects (one being 24) jumping between the AHL and ECHL,getting starts in both. The other prospect Milic (03) was not returned for his OA season. Dom had an awful start to the season and his numbers look bad but the team infront of him wasn't helping much.
