Sarnia Sting 2024 - 25 Season Thread, Part I

[SarniaStingFan]

Surzycia looks so calm and steady right now. Swallowing up a ton of pucks and making big saves like the one on Aspinall in tight. Flint controlled the play for probably the first three quarters of the period but the team came out with a little more pushback in the final five minutes. Need more of that in the final two frames

Starting to think trading Martone wasn't the best decision!

Call me crazy but I genuinely believe Martone will end up going 1OA this year when all is said and done.

The Hagen's kid is supposed to be unbelievable. Can't say I've seen him to say. But sure won't surprise me if Martone pushes for top 3. He's a special talent. Got it all.

Rookie mistake on that goal. Edwards who's been good tonight tries to make a play at our blue line instead of getting it out & eventually it ends up in the net. Type of play we gotta deal with early on.

Another year where the PP is an absolute anchor for this team. Costs u the game yesterday. Got a chance to take the momentum & lead back & give up a SHG.

It is utter idiocy Barr isn't running a unit. Utter fricken idiocy.

Our PP is just as bad as last year. Won't surprise me if it finishes last this year. A complete train wreck.

I also so strongly hate running 11F 7D. No flow between pairs. Bridgewater who has an assist has barely played. Barr barely playing who's your best puck mover. I think Sim has about 3 shifts tonight if that tells u anything about how Letang feels about him lol.

Still only down 1. Surzycia is having another really strong start to the season like last year. Need more from Wainwright & Doucette up front. Hopefully they can step up in the 3rd.

Its ridiculas the line chemistry is aweful Carrys into PP.
Brown won't pass puck play the game with others hard to watch.
Bodin caught every shift making bad decisions.

Wainwright flying out there tonight, good to see, like to see more speed and skill on his line. Wainwright Killing faceoffs again against clattenburg too, di iorio not too shabby over 60 %
Doucette skating well too just makes no sense to me they are not staples on same line think Letang making huge mistake.
Pp gives up SH goal again.
coaching wise putting players on PP is useless. Think Jeffery does PP.
Little too much input from him if this is what we get.
Surzycia playing solid again
Again seems like a theme why does Letang have Bodin top line? Think he is falling more and more to me down depth chart more I see less I like beside his size and physicality.
Hope we finish strong in 3rd and steal this one.

Yeah the PP is a massive issue. Shocker that the best shift was when Kostuch was on the ice. I agree that Barr needs to running PP1. Fischer cost them the second goal. You can't let a guy get behind you on the PP. Vets need to step up in the third. Not acceptable to have Filak/Wainwright/Doucette combine for 2 goals thru three games and two periods. Can't be relying on the young guys for all your offence

I hate 11F/7D too. You already have so many new players and then they're playing with different players every shift. No chance they're going to create any chemistry. Not like we don't have the personnel to run 12F/6D either
