Xenforo Cloud will be upgrading us to version 2.3.5 on March 3rd at 12 AM GMT. This version has increased stability and fixes several bugs. We expect downtime for the duration of the update. The admin team will continue to work on existing issues, templates and upgrade all necessary available addons to minimize impact of this new version. Click Here for Updates
Given how this team spends half the game in the box, it's amazing how soft they are.
Down to 7th in the conference. Joke of a season.
Down to 7th in the conference. Joke of a season.
It's what was always going to happen, we took advantage of an easy 1st half and now we have a gauntlet.
Now in terms of rebuilding Ottawa, North Bay, Peterborough and Brantford are way ahead of us. We have 2x 2nds this draft, likely get back the 2nd from the Hage deal but then no 2nds until 2029.
In comparison including 2029 draft
Brampton has 5x 2nds and 2x 3rds Brantford has 10x 2nds and 6x 3rds, Niagara has 4x 2nds and 5x 3rds,
North Bay has 4x 2nds, 3x 3rds plus 3 1st rounders from last season
Ottawa has 8x 2nds and 5x 3rds
Peterborough has their boat load of 1st from last years deadline plus 6x 2nds, and 7x 3rds
Yes we can sell off a combo of Villy, Walton, and Mews, but North Bay can still move Therrien, Procyszyn, Ride and McIvor, Peterborough and Ottawa will also still have players to move next year.
This is just the Eastern conference I picture Brantford loading up next year, they may lose Lardis but will still have Brown, Vanacker, O'Brein, Protz, Jiricek and Leenders. They will weaponize their picks.
Brampton holds picks conditional on Valentini signing with Kitchener. Over (5 years) Brampton at this time have 4-2nds, 3rd, 2-4ths.
Really believe the wolves should be looking at drafting a player from the Little Caesars Massimo Santa Maria, the name alone may bring a miracle and a Devine blessing to put our team in the running next season. God willing, amen
Hopefully, Chitaroni forces his way to the wolves.

No Dean,Clayton, Ewles, Musty and Delic…no expectations. As Villy said post game, everyone needs to play their role. Kids showed some nice character after being down 4-0..
Between his ranking going down and the wolves continuing to lose, he likely won't need to force his way here.
Hopefully he shows more then his brothers, Hudson skates and competes well but he still passes and shoots like a Jr. A player, just no pwoer.

I have to give to the charges last night. They showed some push back. I thought we were in for a very long night but that group cared last night.
Anyone know what happened with Chucky not returning after the 1st period?

Wow if we’re feeling somewhat good about losing 7-3 this season might as well be over, missing a few players or not.
Also am I living in a parallel universe or did Barney say something to the extent that we are trending in the right direction!? What is that 3 wins since the deadline? I’d hate to see what he would consider trending in the wrong direction. As someone mentioned for a team that takes so many penalties outside of Street (who should have been given more ice time long ago) and maybe Coughlin we are pretty soft as most penalties are lazy or stupid and not the result of strong physical play. Not sure what to make of Barney now or the rest of this season but I wouldn’t be surprised if we were out in four or five. As far as finishing six or seventh to me neither would have much bearing on that outcome. Fully prepared for three losses on the roadie.
Any update on the missing players?

Yes those are significant losses but you’re statement of no expectations makes me think of the saying “if you think you are beaten (before you start) you most certainly are” I hope no one m the team has that attitude.

- Sudbury native Sam McCue(27-19-46) is the leading scorer for Flint and will dress alongside former Wolves Evan Konyen and Matthew Mania
- Brampton is off tonight so a good game for Sudbury to climb back into 6th with both teams having played the same amount of games.
- 12th-round pick in 2024 Bohdi Ryan will see his first OHL action tonight as he centers the Wolves 4th line.

The wolves have been a joke of a team since the Foligno era they just traded 12 picks and a player for 2 players that aren't making the difference i feel bad for you diehard fans that keep hoping year after year i basically gave up during the Burguess fiasco i basically go to a game or 2 every year so sad that this organisation sucks every year and can't get it done.
Maybe I'm crazy but I'd give Henderson, Zillotto and Coughlan a chance in the top 6 over Pharand, Chitaroni and Molnar respectively.

Great start, momentum disappearing with dumb penalties by the usual suspects. Great leadership as usual.
And McCoy is gone, 45 minutes of 5 d-men hockey.

was that really a legit penalty didn't look bad to me? I didn't think 5 min and misconduct warranted, I need to look at it again
It's definitely a weaker call, but there's no reason to forearm someone into the boards like that. Best case scenario he's getting a 2minute minor and putting them two men down anyways. I'm not sure what changed with McCoy from last year to this year, but it's really been a step backwards, I thought he'd be in contention for being one of the best OAs in the OHL this year.

That call was as soft as butter!!! Next level that's not even a call. Lombardi 100 lbs soaking wet just like that puke you call an official in Scott.
Hopefully its reviewed as fast Leskovar's major was where he played in North Bay with no supplemental punishment after hitting Villeneuve.
