North Bay
This trip for Windsor reminds me of Sudbury's trip to Sarnia and Windsor last year. Sudbury went into Sarnia and dominated much like Windsor did in North Bay. Then, the next night, Sudbury was dominated by Windsor much like they were by Sudbury tonight. The vets were on fire tonight. Not sure if this is a one off but I hope it continues!

Say what you will but playing in a full barn that is rocking like last night has to be an amazing experience for our players. For the younger players, they get their first taste of a full barn and they must be pumped. Great game last night, #27 may have punched his ticket to World Juniors. Billy should get an invite as well, as he is much deserving. But is Team Canada ready for Villy? IMO, you win with players like him. A guy that is very sound defensively, wins face offs, will eat a puck if he has too and also has huge offensive upside. Total character/Team/Glue guy.
Unleash Villy back to his home town to play the Worlds best!

‘Villy’ should not be among the ~10 ON born 2005-07 representing Canada at this years WHC. Two or three of M.Misa, He, Spence, Rehkopf, Barlow won’t make the cut as LWs.

Listen, I understand the chances of Villy playing in WJC are close to zero because it’s a 19yr old tournament for the most part; however, the point I was trying to make is teams WIN with guys who play like him.
If I had a say, he’d be on my team. Maybe next season? Who knows.

Read :) I like the way Villeneuve plays too, but Villeneuve would not help Canada more than fellow ‘06s He and Spence or ‘07 Misa; and I think two of those three will not be getting the opportunity to represent Canada in that 19 yr old tournament this time.

Although I agree the players you mention are amazingly talented, they don’t bring the overall skill set Villy does. Honestly I can’t think of many comparisons. To me you are comparing bright shiny apples to a Unicorn Orange.

Spence might be a bigger, stronger, faster, more skilled version of Villeneuve, and He may be the closest OHL comparable to Cowan

North Bays play by play guys are SO much better than our crew.
Not hard to be better then the sudbury crew most nights. North Bay is still bad. Everyone on the ice is out to screw over North Bay according to one of them.

Henderson looking like yet another U18 draft gem for the Wolves.

McCoy too preoccupied trying to get the empty net goal instead of just getting it out of the zone. bad play by a veteran who should know better.

What is the defence doing, Eweles just completely stopped skating on that one.

Trying to figure out what went wrong at the end of the game. Pharand, Walton and Musty on the idea. Did they just have a bad line change to end up with 3 forwards?

Thinking to myself the entire o/t Walton shouldn't be on the ice but N.V. took himself out the game which would of been valuable in o/t. Poor decision to fight that player the way he did.
