Nice win made it interesting like usual. lol. Pharand had best game of the season, he needs to stay at Center to be effective in my opinion. Krawchuk look shaky to me again, stays too deep in net, needs to challenge shooters, and needs confident body language. PP and PK struggled tonight, 5 on 5, Wolves are hard to handle.
 
Almost lost it at the end - but good bounce back weekend 2/2. Actually just saw we play tomorrow.

What a pass by Coughlan on the last goal.

Shots 34-21 vs LDN & 36-21 vs OSH.
 
Gens had no business in the game. Pp same thing (need to shoot more). Difficulty on the pk. Glad for the win nonetheless. Good offensive output.

Start gaulton tomorrow.
Exactly! If the Wolves had any kind of powerplay they would have pulled away even further. Thanks for the bounces. Never be a real contender until they can close out these type of games without having them go down to the wire.

Made it interesting! More like came within a hair of blowing it! Big stop at the end but Krawchuck not making a good argument to be a starter. Needs to track pucks better for one.
 
Special teams a cause for concern. 0 for 25 since last they last scored. PK isn't going well either. Chucky not his best game. Going down on every shot and way too far back on his line. Musty allowed Ritchie to go by him on Gens 4th goal. Can't let that happen. Nice to see Pharand play with aggressive board work. Nice shooting too. I still think Delic needs to play centre on the second line he drives the play more than McCallum. He can play the wing. I would like Sudbury to get another solid player for our second line.

Coughlan was relentless and that line was solid. Same with the 4th line. Nice to get the two points however. Hopefully Mania is back in tomorrow we need a puck moving dman. We struggle getting it out quick.

What’s wrong with Mania?
 
Obviously like the win, but don’t feel good about it. Friday night complete game against London. With a 5-2 lead half way thru the third I don’t like how we managed our play. Special Teams are killing us. At 5-2, DZone must be a priority, no NZone turnovers or odd man rushes….
We were playing a text book road period until that penalty opened the door. Wolves too passive, backing in and allowing shots from the top of the circle.

Guess the flu is back preventing the team from playing defence,
actually team did well only allowing 21 shots during this game. 3 goals on 4 shots in third period, two of the goals were PP. Special Teams PK were the issue, 5 vs 5 no real issues.
 
Good weekend, still one more game to go. Hopefully 6/6 this "weekend". As a goalie myself, I did notice that Krawchuk was a little too deep in his net for a couple of those goals. Otherwise, team did good to limit shots and their 5 on 5 play has to be tops in the league cause their PP is garbage.

This team will not succeed in the playoffs with the worst power play in the league. Either the strategy has to change or the players do. The book is out on the wolves going for the big shot on right side every single time.

The PP is to easy to defend. Their trying but something ain't right. Need more shots and head to the net.

I wish Goyette would shoot more. Had an open net last night with goalie out. Trying to be cute.

I'd like to see gaulton tonight
 
Until the goaltending situation is addressed this team is hanging on a thread.
I am starting to wonder if we have a Goalie coach issue, the position has been unchanged in a long time, and we've not had much success in developing any goaltenders.
