Sudbury Wolves 2024-25 Season Thread, Part III

[Lycanthrope]

Friday will tell an interesting tale. I’ve got a good mind the score will be a little closer.

The GM is back under the microscope, he is in charge, he made the trades, hopefully they work out in our favour but someone has to pay the piper when all is said and done. Lots of time to get it all done, a little winning streak is what the doctor ordered.

All teams experience down turns during a season;for instance, Barrie just came off a 5 game losing streak. I trust our coaches to get us back on track.

The yardstick. Definitely room for improvement. Will be good to be home and practicing for a week. Hmmm not sure the road trip was the bonding experience hoped for. But that's over and behind us. Go coaches go.

A successful season would be finishing high enough to get home ice advantage in the first round.

 

[Wolf on a Wire]

I would think Clayton may be back soon? I hope. Will help bring some balance to lineup and improve our PK.

 

[Wiserbud]

6-6-3 with Musty
16-9-2 without

And .. 2-5 in last 7 without Clayton...

That bar is so low, they could trip over it.

Successful season for both the wolves and fronts is going atleast 3rd round. (Not happening unless you take out Barrie/oshawa round 2)

Both Kingston and Sudbury are in the same spot where they shouldn’t have probably gone all in but they did.

Sudbury like last year overestimated their goaltending, before going all in the first step should have been getting a backup or starter to backup Chucky who was playing very well but can’t be expected to carry the load he has to now. What if Chucky got or can get seriously hurt, how many spots could we drop? Papineau blundered last year regarding goaltending and did the same thing again.

Let's start with winning one game in round two, that has not happened since 2007 for the wolves.

A couple of good teams will be one and done. Barrie might not get it all together. I don't think there is a prohibitive favourite among any of Brantford, Kingston, Oshawa, and Sudbury.
Maybe Sudbury should have made a greater effort to really be all-in. All of Brampton, Brantford, Kingston, and Sudbury could/should have added one more to the 3rd line to be tougher to score against. I do like the frontenacs as is though.

Jeez I thought the fronts were bad. We haven’t won more than 1 game in the 3rd round I don’t think ever and we’ve only made the second round a few times since then. 17 years without a second round appearance I believe it was. To put into perspective how long that is exactly- a kid can come out of the womb and at 17 I believe would be grade 12 in the meantime
