It's nice to see a couple of high end players joining the T-Birds. If Gibson's play to date is any indication, it's still a great development path.McConnell-Barker joins the Thunderbirds

Duarte is quite a nice addition and brings more to the table than McMullen in my opinion. He's strong and hard to move off the puck. He's also been very engaged and active in the defensive end. I see 20+ goal potential in him.From Brad Coccimiglio's live blogs, here are the lineups for the two games this past weekend:
------------------
GAME 1:
Out of the lineup tonight for the Greyhounds are Landon Miller, Brodie McConnell-Barker, Ethan Montroy, Owen Allard (injury), Landen Hookey, Alex Kostov, Dustin Good, Caleb Van De Ven

Didn't get to watch either game. Seems to be some shuffling at centre. How have our new centres looked? Ballard? Moses? Brown? Duarte? How about the defense pairings? Surprised to see Brzustowski lining up in the third pairing. Has the third pairing looked good? Gibson obviously hit the scoresheet, but how did the rest of his game look paired with Kirill?
Virgilio was everywhere tonight. Might make an impact sooner than anticipated if his play tonight was any indication.
I'll be happy to see the boys squeek into the playoffs even if they're in it for the first round to get that experience for next season.....they may surprise us as the season goes on thoughLooks like a promising young team in the limited game action I've seen so far. There's times when you see the skill and potential, and times when you see the inconsistency and lack of experience. As long as fans keep things in perspective this should be a very enjoyable season to watch as the next generation develops.
Ditto. Although I'll add there's no team we like DEFEATING more than the Knights.No visiting team I like watching more than the Hounds. As I've said before, you have great systems in place, makes for entertaining hockey. And perhaps more importantly, two Londoners on the roster, including the captain. Watching from home tonight but should be a fair share of red and white decked out in the crowd...
Something tells me this comment is a bit biasedDitto. Although I'll add there's no team we like DEFEATING more than the Knights.
I'm always amazed with how loud and animated even the most conservative of fan gets when the Knights are in town. Even the nice little old ladies turn into raving lunatics screaming at Dale and the refs.
Nice to see a hound goalie just steal a game, regardless of the city!Schenley was fantastic. Especially in the 3rd period. Nice to see a Hound goalie steal a game on the road.
That was indeed a rare treat to see. Just let the guys play. I really enjoyed this game.Known as an offensive D-man, impressed last night with Gibson's defensive game. Thwarted some key scoring chances. Hounds clogging lanes, shot blocking effective.
And, lastly, nothing whatsoever to leave one with even the slightest impression of biased officiating.
