Ontario Reign 20-21

[Ray Martyniuk]

I've been totally underwhelmed with the Reign so far this year

 

[Master Yoda]

They should send down and play Ingham. See what he's got at least

 

[Ray Martyniuk]

JCristos Kaliyev make a simple backhand pass,F...!

Reign are dealing with the same issue the Kings have been lately with Roy and Walker out. The defense corps are not up to the task of moving the puck out of their own zone quickly enough or with A/B quality decision-making to enable their skill upfront to shine.

You can't blame them totally with Anderson and Clague graduating plus Bjornfot and Strand up with the big club, but it is frustrating to watch.

Also, they've now allowed as many SH goals against as they have scored PP goals in 4 games. That seems unacceptable given the firepower they have.

To not be completely doom and gloom, I will say they've run into some hot goaltending. Thompson, Dostal, and now Provetsov have been sharp, with the later two showing why they're top goalie prospects.

 

[Ray Martyniuk]

Most of our prospects were scorers in Juniors or college hockey...a lot better embrace 3th-4th line duty in the NHL when that comes in 2-4 years

Ontrailio Reign

 

[Ray Martyniuk]

Where's Grosenick?

 

[Docgonzo]

Yeah our top d prospects are in every league but the AHL lol. Makes things difficult for the Reign.

 

[Ray Martyniuk]

Reign are missing a whole lot of something

 

[ru4reals]

Brutal. Villalta is something to behold.

 

[Ray Martyniuk]

Nice goal by Dudas

 

[Ray Martyniuk]

Another goal by the Reign amazing!

 

[Ray Martyniuk]

Seriously I thought they were dead in the water

 

[Ray Martyniuk]

Do the Roadrunners actually have a legit NHL prospect?

Do the Roadrunners actually have a legit NHL prospect?

Jenik and Soderstrom, that's about it

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

Gaunce is like 90s era Kings defense levels of bad.

 

[Ray Martyniuk]

I thought I'd pack it in...now that its 4-3 I'll hang around a bit longer

 

[Jericho111091]

Is Moverare out injured?

 

[Ray Martyniuk]

Jenik and Soderstrom, that's about it

Soderstrom will be up for good soon since the NHL 'Yotes have Zero young talent on the backline

 

[Ray Martyniuk]

Of all the Coyotes prospects who does Seattle take in Expansion...?

 

[Nickster]

Powerplay slingshot is vulnerable to turnover when so slow to develop. I hate it. We've got such talented puck handlers now, why have one guy trying to break into the ozone with four guys stopped at the blueline. And to top it off, they end up dumping the puck in anyway after the player breaks in by himself and no one is available to pass to.

 

[Ray Martyniuk]

Don't the Roadrunners have 3-5 thirty-something players?

 

[ru4reals]

Chance after chance after chance and nothing. Sheesh. Wiffing on pucks left and right. And Phillips is terrible.

 

[BringTheReign]

Soderstrom will be up for good soon since the NHL 'Yotes have Zero young talent on the backline

Chychrun disagrees, but yeah, I agree Soderstrom will probably be on the big club permanently soon.

Is Moverare out injured?

Injured, happened game 1 I believe.
