North Bay Battalion 2024 - 25 Season Thread, Part I

[50in07forever]

Rough loss for the Battle-Onion, Great game by Moses/JLeblanc/Wellenreiter line, plenty of effort and drive, Enright showing flares of that offensive upside of his 2 way game as well which was great to see. As for everyone else…….. top line coasting off on a critical line change last 2 minutes…. Yikes

The Walton goal was a discouraging reminder that this season's edition of the Battalion doesn't have any forwards that can copy that - the d-boys certainly earned their minuses on that one.

What do you guys think the odds of Procyszyn getting traded at this deadline are?

I would assume they wouldn’t trade him but I wonder if they’d listen to offers.

Exactly the type of guy you want in the playoffs. Great defensively and has really improved his goal scoring abilities.

Next year I predict he makes team Canada in a bottom 6 role similar to Cole Beaudoin on barrie this year

Odds are probably low, if we swing the Parker Vaughn deal we are looking good next year and will be competitive again. Our backend is solid and won’t change, McIvor should be back in net, so with a few key offensive pieces we should see competitive post season action and I think it leaves a gaping hole for our 1C position if they move him. Would be surprised if Romani or OVS is still here after the deadline though. Leblanc twins probably too. North bay is a small market, we need to stay competitive to sell tickets

Worst 5v5 defence on that Walton skate that ive seen in years!lol

If it’s any consolation, Walton has made a few team defence look bad this season. He’s had an exceptional first half season…

Did it through a pretty a good Saginaw team last year as well. Give credit where do. Not many can do that vs the poorest teams.

NT26 no longer listed on roster.
Cali #17 (Long time no see 17 ) making his debut as 2C with AL27 and JT6 as his wingers

AL27 on the wing finally

I want the 10 minutes of my life back it took the refs to call a no goal, goal, and no goal again all on the same play, unreal. How is this allowed, it’s delay of game from the officials

FREE RICHTER,

Why is this kid not playing? I hope for his sake he is traded ( or asks for a trade) and gets a chance to play. Scratched for 16-17 year olds!! Terrible.

He’ll be “free” as in agent post trade deadline. Develop the 16/17 year olds who can make an impact next season. Richter is not a player who will make an impact on this team. He and Turley need new homes.

18 on the PP is a total bust.

Enright would be better, much better shot and better offensive awareness. He can rip it when he wants to

I like Richter much more than Chukarev, Richter is safe with the puck and good on face offs. Not the most offensive guy but good puck carrier and reliable penalty killer.

yes, something to look forward to - but in the meantime, sth's are in for some long games ahead.

How many more games are we going to lose before Larocque gets sent down. Unreal

Very good effort by the boys. Couple of stinkers by the tender. Cali is looking real good.......let the selling begin!!!

Agreed on RC17, made a strong play behind the boards before delivering a pretty nice no look backhand pass net front that generated a real solid chance. Always has his stick on the ice infront of the net. SM24 continues to show glimpses of high end talent with setup to it to OV16. He also has a pretty deadly shot when accurate but I found it’s become pretty predictable especially with his long setup for it. Watching the entire D group including our huge 05’s throw nothing but muffins on net sure makes me appreciate what Ty Nelson brought among other things. If I have just the right amount of rum and pepsis (no coke products at the gardens) while at the game you could convince that #4 this year is the same as last years. JT6 and RS20 both out today. Saw the trainer looking at JT6’s clavicle/shoulder area after he got hit against Barrie. If the injures keep going the team will have no choice but to free DR10

Thumbs up to the rum & peps...
Thumbs up to freeing DR10

When you put the bug in for a team like the Rangers, it seems like you've given up trying.

Didn’t understand that move either. Pete’s Thursday and we choose the Rangers to play Charlie…. He looked good for 2 periods but if he lets one bad one in he loses his confidence completely. Needs conditioning
