Sudbury Wolves 2023-24 Off-Season Thread (Part 1)

[cub]

Goal 1- 2 on 1. Not on the goalie

Goal 2- No one with a stick in the lane. Wide open lane to put a cross ice pass through. Easy one timer.

Goal 3- PP.

Goal 4- essentially a 2 on 1. Pass slips by last defender. Forward walks in with almost no resistance.

Goal 5- this one you could blame on the goalie. Made the initial save but gives up the rebound.

Goal 6- looks like it was tipped. Not boxing out guys out front.

Goal 7- unfortunate bounce to open man in the slot. Easy shot. It happens.

Goal 8- empty net

I’ve got one bad goal. Going to guess most games have similar break downs. There are always 10 other things teams need to work on before they start blaming the goalie. Always.

I agree on last night, team Defensive coverage very poor. But most nights many deflating goals. Other team goalies outshine ours most games.

Much like the reffing last night, it can be bad, but not the reason they lost.

Ultimately I really do think unless the team gives Krawchuk a shot in net, they're toast. Ultimately they might be toast with Krawchuk in net as well, but it's worth a shot. Stats don't tell the full story but I don't understand why they don't try it out, what they're doing now in net is not working.

I agree that Krawchuk should be given the opportunity but even if he was to be great there are other issues that coaching hasn't addressed. (Not sure UPL could save us right now) Very poor overall defensive play with little responsibility plus a lack of jump generally. It looks like the guys are tired or poorly motivated. You'd think knowing the chance they have in front of them would be enough but obviously more going on than we can see.

I mostly agree with what you're saying, but UPL would turn Niagara into a contender haha. Best goalie I've seen in the OHL in a long time. Wolves team he was on played significantly worse D then this one.

Wish a reporter in this city would ask the Wolves why Krawchuk is not provided a chance? Or ask Krawchuk? Or maybe get a Soo reporter to find out. Baffling.

have to respect Krawchuck patience, I don't think any other person could take what is happening to him. I expect he will start off as the starter next season. I wish when he gets his opportunity to have the confidence and swagger, positive body language. Very laid back which is his detriment right now I believe.

I agree with giving Chucky a start but what are we to expect? Him come in and save our season?

The kid hasn't played a game since the begining of January. He'll probably provide the same result as the 2 we have in net now.

Im not saying don't do it but we shouldnt get all butt hurt if it happens and Chucky lays an egg.

Paps for 2 straight years fumbled the most important piece of this team and an early exit from the playoffs should cost the entire front office and coaching staff their jobs.

The OHL’s “Class Act Of The Year” award winner Sawyer Bolton with yet another major penalty against the Greyhounds last night. What’s this gonna be.. his 3rd or 4th suspension this year? This league is a joke. Should be out indefinitely.

Looks like Krawchuk gets the start today

And the league talked about maintaining integrity of the league when handing out the wolves players suspensions. Yet this kid in London has been nothing but an embarrassment to the league. Integrity my behind Branch!

Whether it works or not, I'm glad they're trying something different.

Aitcheson still in hiding?

Aitcheson still in hiding?

Suspended. Kudos to Krawchuk. Great first period, made all the stops

 

[djscooter]

Williamson complaining again? I'm sure he'll be putting in a call into the team after the game about how he was wronged.

Tic-Tac-Toe Dvorsky, Goyette, Musty, what a nice PP goal.

 

[StewieFan76]

Solid game all around. What a difference it makes when the goalie actually makes saves. I hope they come right back with Chucky tomorrow!

 

[djscooter]

Good on the wolves; came in and took care of business in what should have been an easy win. Hopefully they can continue it into tomorrow.

 

[cub]

Chucky great game, nice to see they made the change.

 

[jrwhopper]

Chucky!!!!

Boys played with confidence knowing they have someone who can stop a puck.

 

[howlman]

What a story this could be for Chucky if he runs with this.
