UNB Reds Thread (Part5)

[UNB Bruins Fan]

Another really good 2nd period.

And a nice clean boring third period with no shenanigans from TMU.

 

[Big Bad Jon]

What was with all the after wistle scrums during the first 5 periods. Did it date back to UNB's loss in Acadia at nationals a couple years ago or some bad relations from junior careers? Definitely more scrums than typical exhibition games!

 

[AUS Fan]

I watched ACA-DAL, QUE-ACA, QUE-DAL and UPEI-DAL and there were several scrums in those games. None of them resulted in penalties, but it's common, especially with new players trying to make their mark.

You gotta figure with TMU carrying 29 guys the competition is especially high with them.

Dave Adolph retired with 488 Regular Season wins (Lethbridge and USask combined).

Gardiner is at 460 and would need a 28-2 season to tie and 29-1 season to set the record. Not impossible but unlikely - more like next fall ('24/25).

The following season, 24/25, would be Gardiner's 25 - Adolph set the record over 28 (three season's sooner for Gardiner). A combination of better records and some longer seasons (more games played).

I have no idea what the Playoff record would be - Gardiner is at 82-41. Certainly in the top 3, maybe the best?

For Nationals - Gardiner tied Tom Watt for the most championship game appearances, with 11, and tied Clare Drake for the most tournament games coached, with 42. If they go to Nationals this year - he would break Clare's record and another title (not far fetched) he sets that record as well.

Hopefully as he closes in on these totals the team acknowledges it. We’ve all been pretty blessed to be UNB fans during the G-Mac era

You guys have been more than "blessed".
You had a great hockey AD in Kevin Dickie, great coaching staff with Gards, Hennie, Goodie and others, an AHL rink to play in, the pick of the litter when it came to recruiting, good fan base.

I could go on, but it all started with Gards back in 2000ish.

Any idea if Nolet is hurt ? Everyone else took the warmup

 

[UNB Bruins Fan]

Just realized this is the fourth straight time Moncton has been the opponent for a National Championship banner raising…they were also here in 2019/2017/2016.

They dressed 18 skaters. Nolet shouldn't be warming up.

 

[Rob]

A dominant performance by the Reds. First period was actually close. Les Aigles rookie net minder Adam really let in a stinker for the third goal. The game got away from them soon after. Richard stopped a couple of breakaways to earn the shutout

We know.

Blagden was tabbed as the 19th skater for warmup....Nolet was a scratch, I don't have any other details on him.

 

[UNB Bruins Fan]

Man, I wish the AUC would upgrade their sound system…I don’t think I could understand a single thing during the player introductions.

Valid but I was more thinking for the intros , in the past guys who didn’t have injuries that impacted skating have skated out for intros , I remember Luke Lynes skated out after he hadn’t played in almost a year.

I too was surprised he didn’t skate out for the player introductions. Like you said, in the past even the healthy scratches would skate out with at least their jersey on.



I will say one thing about Moncton, it is always a fun, back and forth game…they had a lot of quality chances, especially in the 1st period.

Not sure what his issue is - injury or illness. But definitely not healthy scratch.

That was total bad luck on the 3rd goal. Puck rebounds off the back boards, he's trying to see where the rebound is going, it hits him and goes in.

UdeM really seemed to sag after that, and the Reds were like sharks smelling blood in the water. By the time les Aigles regrouped they were in a big hole.

Missing Mika Cyr and Lanoue until January really sucks for them. Mika is a guy you have to watch when he's on the ice, and when he's out it makes the game that much easier for UNB.

Is the webcast using some different camera angles this season? Thought I saw one from in the Dalhousie net, which is cool.

On another note…no pre-game video this season so far is disappointing. They didn’t even have one for the season opener.

Kinda pointless turning the lights out for 30 seconds now .

Dal is working their bags off but when they run out of legs this game is gonna get ugly (score wise)

 

[dm8895]

The last time UNB gave up a goal in a meaningful game was against UQTR in Charlottetown

There is a camera box in the base of the net in the AUC Zamboni end (Reds attack that end 1st and 3rd periods. The penalty box cams were upgraded. There are cameras under the over the ice score clock which aren't new, but I don't know if they got much use before.

Classic St. FX game

 

[UNB Bruins Fan]

Finished the game with 4 defencemen…McGinley looked liked he was in all kinds of discomfort with his shoulder/arm…I never saw what happened to McCormick.
