Sudbury Wolves 2024-25 Season Thread, Part III

[Wolfman Jack]

WTF is happening? What happened to the great passing of this past Sunday? Wolves are playing like they don’t know each other. Individual play. Brutal decision making. Brutal PPs. Turn overs all over the ice. Blowing our zone way too early..
I guess it can hopefully get better in the next 2 periods.

Can only hope. What happened on the bus ride down Wednesday? Not the same team from week ago.

Mind blowing the lack of effort, bad passes, give aways, leaving guys standing in the slot for grade A shot, not picking up your man on the back check, foot speed is slow just coasting and puck watching.

PP is a nightmare.

Please put Blonda on the PP over DeAngelis...

Brutal play by Roberts in the defensive end holyyy

 

[Between The Goalpost]

let’s just hope history does not repeat itself when goaltending was not addressed before the deadline like last year.

Fingers crossed Chucky can close this one out. You're right about him losing his confidence last year but our new goalie coach is great. Hoping he can figure it out.

Still plenty of game left here.

 

[Wolfman Jack]

So you don't review an elbow to the head but you do for a high stick.

Self destructive

This far in this season and still 0 discipline on the team, Coach Barney can coach a lot of things, but that is not one of them clearly.

 

[DidiometesFist]

Even the new guys are taking stupid penalties lmfao

 

[Between The Goalpost]

Can we try to beat the record and get 6 wolves in the box tonight? Hard to stay positive here guys. Likely going to be 1-4 before this is all said and done.

 

[djscooter]

Villeneuve has negative IQ.... jesus... Shocking he can skate and breath at the same time.


Start the bus, don't even bother stopping in London.

 

[Between The Goalpost]

Hope Chucky isn't hurt. Got slammed pretty hard there.

 

[StewieFan76]

This is why we can’t have nice things. I swear there’s some kinda curse. High-end players never seem to be quite as high-end once they come here. We have hope and then there’s a potential injury to Chucky. We’re loyal fans, we deserve a damn break.

 

[djscooter]

This game is toast, can the Wolves atleast start benching players who constantly take penalties here?

 

[Between The Goalpost]

I think I'm calling it a night. 8 shots on net? Yikes.

On to london

 

[Wolfman Jack]

And no penalty for ramming the goalie??? What the heck is wrong with these officials. No protection for the goalie. He surely wasn't pushed in by a Sudbury defender...

Sorry but this is on the coaching staff, who is behind taking 90 percent of Blonda's ice time and giving it to Mews? Was this part of the deal to get him here? Last year we were first in our division at the dead line and finished fifth, if this kind of play and coaching continues it will be a repeat of last season however, moving down 5 spots puts us in the lottery. Want the younger players to loose confidence in the coaching staff? then keep taking their ice time away and not hold other players accountable for their actions. I only hope if Blonda did exercise his NTC he is not being penalized for his decision. Surely this could not be true. Watching the same nonsense as last year. Time to fix it.

 

[Wiserbud]

No shots, lousy face offs, zero pp... But hey Coughlan doesn't have a penalty. There is that.

6 power plays and yet only 9 shots in the entire game so far??

When was the last time wolves were in the other teams crease last few games. Let's start their. Part of the reason McCoy did what he did.

 

[jrwhopper]

Award ice time to the kids who can stay out of the box

 

[jrwhopper]

How many penalties is Villeneuve gunna take before Barney rides his ass on the bench?

Scratch that Coughlan comment.

 

[djscooter]

Bench Villeneuve, this is ridiculous, even MacKenzie would have benched him by now.

 

[MGOBlue]

Worst penalty shot call I have ever seen in my life. Wolves playing with zero discipline, but these Refs are incompetent. Brutal game all around.

 

[I Loveallsports]

Agree he takes too many penalties but, he was the best wolf tonight and brings it every night. He could play for me any day of the week. Furthermore, he'll be the longest pro player then any wolf on this current roster.

 

[Wolf on a Wire]

Sadly, we add new players and we revert back to last year’s style of individual/no defence play. We got work to do here! Gotta get back to blue collar, disciplined hockey that is accountable.
I didn’t think we’d play worse than last night, but we did. Looked like guys gotta figure stuff out. Bottom 6 gotta play a role…

 

[billoink]

Disgusting from behind the bench out. Assign the rookies to their junior teams if you are going to treat them like this. There is nothing to learn from favoritism and at least they will develop with ice time if this is the case going forward.

8 PIMs, if he's on your team you're not going to win a lot of games like that.
