Windsor Spitfires 2021-22 Season Thread

[OHLTG]

It'd likely be between Ride, De Angelis, and Jodoin... and the first two aren't going anywhere. I like Jodoin's determination but he's the odd man out.

 

[hockeylegend11]

As of now I am in the camp of holding on to all the D, prior to the season I figured Jodoin could be odd man out,but and I know its early yet,through the end of exhibition season and up to and including the 1st 3 games of this season he has played pretty well,especially the last exhibition game he was a 0 in the plus minus category even though Windsor lost 6-2,and in the 1st 3 games of this year he is a +2 which btw and I didn't know till just now the best plus/minus on the team and the only dman besides Renwick who has not been a minus in any 1 game so far.
His play so far plus the injury history of Grayson Ladd makes me very hesitant to move anyone from the backend for awhile
Some games I dont mind going with 7D,less travel this season less bunched up games makes it easier to plan lineup configurations.

 

[OHLTG]

I don't mind 7D, but...

Jodoin/Henault
Ladd/Robinson
Renwick/Ride
Sobolev/De Angelis

Something has to give. You can't sit two every night.

I would prefer Ride in Jr. B and Jodoin staying.

I dont agree or disagree with your preference re Ride and Jodoin,like I wrote earlier I am willing to wait a bit before deciding anything,for me its always better to practice with other OHL players then B players when not in the lineup, another reason why I am willing to give some time on this.
Also La Salle has their 2-16 year old player slots taken,Spits property dman Tanner Winegard and Cen Jack Greenwell.
Greenwell already taken from Komoka to play in La Salle
Both Winegard and Greenwell are performing well for the Vipers especially Winegard, dont want to upset any applecarts here.

Greenwell has great speed and tons of moves, and makes things happen every shift. He will be a very good player once he puts on the strength to play at this level

Cuylle gets to don the ‘C’

 

[HockeyPops]

....and YOU get an A, and YOU get an A, and....EVERYBODY gets an A

 

[LDN]

Cuylle gets to dawn the ‘C’

All of them make sense. Especially Cuylle with Foudy not coming back

I think even if Foudy was returning, it’d be Cuylle. A-lot of viable choices for Windsor this year and its exemplified here with 6 members of the leadership group.

 

[OHLTG]

I like the fact that they've got a wide range of ages in the group. The last couple of leadership groups were graduating (or one yr left) guys. 2019-20 was two grads and two likely grads. Johnston and Zito getting a shot shows a lot about their character.

 

[AttackBeacher]

....and YOU get an A, and YOU get an A, and....EVERYBODY gets an A

I was going to say, 25 percent of the starters are deemed 'captains'.

That's alot.....

 

[HockeyPops]

6/18 skaters is 33% last I checked

 

[AttackBeacher]

6/18 skaters is 33% last I checked

I included the goalies, that's hilarious, wow....

 

[GermanSpitfire]

Guess we know who will don the C next season provided he returns

 

[2023]

Guess we know who will dawn the C next season provided he returns

You’re wrong if you’re thinking Johnston.
He will return 10000%

Has anyone seen my umbrella? I hate going to the game with my backup umbrella...

Yes I have it,was going to give it to your backup goalie that your team hates to use lol

....and YOU get an A, and YOU get an A, and....EVERYBODY gets an A

Consistent with today’s “inclusive” culture you have the solution my friend. No one feels left out or gets there feelings hurt!

 

[OHLTG]

... and here I thought having several leaders in the room, from a variety of different birth years, would be a GOOD thing. Instead, people find a way to get their feelings hurt about that, too lol

 

[nelli27]

LOL! Thought I was in London thread. Sorry guys. Have a feeling you guys take this one in convincing fashion, 5-1.

 

[nelli27]

I can confirm that the Spitfire bus has arrived early at Bud Gardens, before 6pm. Yes, that's useless information but I'm standing in the rain waiting another 25 min to get in, and I'm bored. Tonight's Spit lineup while I wait???

 

[Travis Bickle 77]

Having that many A's on the roster is a good thing! It shows that we have many leader's on and off the ice. It shows people that we have a solid backbone in regards to our team!

 

[hockeylegend11]

Something I have not seen before, Spits tonight are dressing 8D,10F
Birkett, Baisov and Foudy are the listed scratches.
Roster change Henault in,Birkett out for clarity.

 

[HockeyPops]

Probably have a D playing F
