Sudbury Wolves 2024 - 25 Season Thread, Part I

Decent game so far, shots tied, fights tied, Wolves need 1 with less than 5 to go. Walton with some key misses though. If he gets 2 of the 3 he fanned on, it's a different game.

Great time to take a penalty lol

Despite the loss, our goalies seem to be decent this year... so far.

Goals again as a team very good. Added offence needed to lineup, which I'm sure RP in quite aware and is working on.

Well Chucky wasn't the reason we lost this game. He played out of his mind and made quite a few beautiful glove saves with the guy right in front of him.

I think we can do this 2 goalie system for a bit longer. Chucky faced 36 shots tonight and only let in 2 goals. Pretty decent.

I'll post their stats when it gets updated. Can't wait to get to the barn for some in person hockey. It's been too long and my jersey is collecting some dust!

Any word on Musty is he reporting

Apparently he has it done but some have said he's waiting another 26 days to make it official.

Done what exactly, add Molnar? Wolves need more than him to up their Goal's per game

 

[agillarda]

Done what exactly

Molnar, Erie has even removed him from their roster.

 

[Whoppy52]

Believe something is brewing with respect to Musty. He would be here like all the others who attended pro camps.

They'll need more than that

 

[agillarda]

They'll need more than that

Oh I agree, but if we are counting that much on Villy, Pharand, Coughlan and Walton making big steps this year to contend this year and be valuable next season for trades we can't keep pushing them down the lineup.

 

[Wolf on a Wire]

Pushing players down the lineup would be my last concern. In short order this coaching staff has made it clear to everyone that you will earn your ice. It is so obvious this team needs depth upfront and back end. We will not score goals like last year! Free Wheeling Fire Brand hockey has left town, we all better get comfortable with 2-1 games because that’s how you win in the Playoffs.
Considering we were missing Villie and Musty our team played very well against a very strong Barrie Team. Chucky was impressive and I very much like special teams and team toughness.
On to next game…two more games to #FreeVilly.

 

[djscooter]

Is Gaulton still with the team? I don't believe he's even sat on the bench since the start of the season.

 

[agillarda]

After two more games this is likely how our forwards look.

Musty - Villy - ??(Molnar when that happens)
Walton - Delic - Coughlan
Klinkhammer - Chitter - Pharand
Street - Dean - DiGiantommaso

Scratch - Doucet, Henderson, Clayton

Villy and Musty I believe are the only players in this forward group that had more points than Molnar.

I'm all fine with having players earn their ice time. I'm just saying we are 4 games into the season i think Coughlan and Walton for sure have earned ice time so to bring in players to play above them would cause other issues.

Hopefully these coaches are here for the long run and can establish a consistent culture. This team needs it after the revolving door the coaching position has been.

Is Gaulton still with the team? I don't believe he's even sat on the bench since the start of the season.

We are carrying 3 goalies, only 1 goalie can be on the bench. So if Gaulton is still with the team is in the press box

I was wondering the same. Makes me wonder if he's injured yet again...
