Petes scoring five against Carter George? I’ll have whatever you’re having.

They’ve scored 5 once this season I wouldn’t bet the house on them getting 5 tonight that’s for sure. 3 might be a stretch

I'm trying to be optimistic here! I really think they'll get the win tonight.

I’ll make a prediction. Gavin Bryant gets 1 on his former team

 

[Pucks Deep]

3-1 Petes. Let’s go! Time for a W

3-2 Pete’s in OT

Lefevbre’s last game as a Pete?

 

[NorthernVoice]

I know not everyone is healthy right now but the Petes D for the rest of the season should be

Cameron
Ula
Ladds
Gowan
Strohack, I guess
One of Jenken/Matejicek, IDGAF which.

This season is long gone, get these guys their ice time.

 

[Pucks Deep]

Like watching paint dry tonight. Just nothing

We know Wilson is safe forever because of his insane contract but Oke could be in jeopardy here soon, he's has an awful few months here.

Reasons 1-8 are all giving Wilson an 8 year contract.
#9 - Owen Sound/Addy trade might be really bad
#10 - handling of early OA situation/Sztuska
#11 - hopefully things change on this one but holy shit does anyone think Bryant is actually any better than Lefebvre/McIntyre so far?
#12 - he gave up how much for Jenken, who should absolutely not be an OA next year/should barely play this year
#13 - why aren't any or Cadorin, Turcotte, Lee-Stack here again?

I'm probably still missing some.

...and this is giving the benefit of the doubt on Young and Taylor turning into players and the 07s we were so excited to get last year not being a case of everyone dumping their problems on Oke.

There’s too many guys on this team who aren’t OHL caliber players. This team has a lot of issues and ones that I’m not even sure how you fix because the players aren’t good enough

Getting Bryant was a pure desperation move and honestly it wasn’t worth moving picks because he’s really no better then Lefebvre

Follow me for more great betting tips!!!

Sigh. Ula should be playing a lot more than he is.

I honestly forgot Jenken was on the team. I thought it was a rookie callup. He's invisible out there (not in the good way of old school d-men who just do their job quietly). They need something, anything, from anyone on the roster. Fitzgerald is the only bright spot right now. There seems to be a major lack of leadership. From coaching down to captains. How can they be so lifeless game after game??

Just looking at the games Pete's have played so far there are a quite a few close games there.
Closer look at your vets-
Lefebvre was a 15th round pick- 2 goals as an OA. Bryant isn't the answer 1 goal in 5.
Melee has never been a big point producer but he's .5 pts/gm as an OA
McIntyre has 5 points as an OA
McCallum has 4 points, Partridge has 3, Page and Faulkner have 2.
Import has 3 points.
1 Elite defenseman in Cameron who has to play against other team's best every night and he's an 07. Other than him none of the D would even crack other top eastern team's top 6.
I'm not sure what fans expect this year when most of your best players are 07 and your best is an 08.
I don't care if Paul Maurice was your coach Petes have the worst collection of vets in the OHL plus they play in a strong East where Kingston and Niagara are both exceeding expectations.
Play the kids and be happy when the games are close.

On a bright note -
First time I have seen a goalie goal in real life !
That was exciting
