UNB Reds Thread (Part5)

[dm8895]

Anyone know what happened to Carroll last night ? He didn’t play in the third, took me a while to figure out why the D-pairings were all out of whack.

 

[AUS Fan]

Don't know. Was only told 'officially' this weekend that he left the team. If I was guessing, I could see him going home to PEI.

UNB did put on a furious push in the 3rd, but Capriotti outplayed Richard in nets. UPEI is a very good team, and in games where they get better goaltending than their opponent...

If UPEI can play within the rules they are a tough team to beat. Mixture of skill, grit and solid goaltending.

When the dummies start running guys their game gets sidetracked.

Casey - 8pts in 39 games isn't going to keep you in the line-up if someone else can do a bit better. Sproule has more points in two games than Thomas did in 15. That said - I loved his speed and energy, but you also have to produce.

I'd like to see a small improvement from the bottom half; Carson, Petizian, Baber, Nolet & Nurse. With no one on the team 'leading' the way, they need everyone to contribute.

UPEI - a slow and sloppy 1st period and sub-par game from Richard isn't a recipe for a win.

Glass half empty again???

REDS Add Home Grown Talent

Interesting in that release Hennigar says they hope both can play this weekend. They have had 21 skaters play in a game thus far this year….you add those two and you are at the cap of 23, leading me to believe Kamerrer isn’t going to play this season.

Anyone expecting to see Kamerrer this season?

 

[902RedIslander]

What’s the beat on Blagden anyway? Chatter that he was done with hockey. Is he a Boudens 2.0 type? Can’t see big minutes but I’ve been wrong before!

 

[AUS Fan]

Anyone expecting to see Kamerrer this season?

Not if the 2 new guys play.
If he doesn't play, he still has his eligibility

Anyone got the beat on Blagden? Is he a Boudens 2.0 type

Not gonna get a lot of points. He's a grinder-type player. UNB can use one of those guys. Boudens was very good in that role.

Watched both home games in the comfort of my own home. Didn't want to brave the weather. I continue to be impressed with the UNB broadcast. Quick replays not just for goals but for penalties and regular plays. I think the overhead camera at centre ice is new.

It is early but you can tell that McCallum and Sproule are excellent additions to the team.

 

[UNB Bruins Fan]

Pretty bad game to lose…even with missing the guys to FISU. Up 2-0 at home and no Hawel/Struthers.

Blowing a pair of two goal leads this weekend…quite uncharacteristic. I don’t see the same kind of killer instinct/3rd period dominance of past years.

A lot to work on moving forward, especially defensively after allowing 13 goals in their last three games.

Blame Hennie. This wouldn't happen if Gards was behind the bench.

It's nice to see the parity in the league right now!

 

[RED ARMY EAST]

UNB will have lot's of bodies, after the FISU games are complete. Going to be some tough decisions with the new additions.

 

[UNB Bruins Fan]

I am guessing the three guys coming back will replace Blagdon/McQuaid/Nolet in the lineup.

 

[FreddyFoyle]

I am guessing the three guys coming back will replace Blagdon/McQuaid/Nolet in the lineup.

They most likely will be injury insurance. For example, who knows how long Carroll will be out?

UNB is down 1 spot with Casey leaving. Injuries have a way of changing the lineup. SMU has 3 or 4 guys injured right now plus 2 skaters away at FISU.

 

[UNB Bruins Fan]

Yes, injuries are always a factor. I forgot about Carroll being out.

Down 2 spots, no? Roth and Casey both burned a card

 

[Drummer]

There are 8 games left for 16 points.

UNB's magic'ish number...
... to clinch a bye is 4 (to pass SMU).
... to clinch 1st place is 5 (to pass UPEI)
... to elimiate SFX from catching up to them is 2
... to elimiate UdeM from catching up to them is .5

Acadia and Dal can not catch UNB

This is funny. I was tooling around last night working on the Exact Same Thing.
I hope you're not looking in my windows

Whatever they worked on with regards to the power play this week definitely worked. Five power play goals tonight.
