Barely getting 20 shots is not a recipe for success.
74 stop leading rushes n then giving it away once u see your shadow on the ice...

Costanzo held them in it, great effort. If they played that hard every game we wouldn't be in last place. Hopefully, that's what we see all next season. Had london scared most of the night in a must win for them. Good job boys!
Yes apparently Costanzo wasn't that good as all 3 stars were London players. Lol.

Greentree looks tired or maybe nursing any injury? I feel for him missing that empty net chance!
He needs so much more help. He has to be the best player every night for the team to even have a shot. His 20th game this year without a point needs to be more consistent especially with this roster.

One game left for Windsor and Niagara...

Windsor has 44 pts
Niagara has 42 pts

Windsor's in Saginaw, Niagara at home to Sudbury.

Saginaw could still catch London, technically, but it would be very tough. I don't see them sitting anyone. Sudbury has a chance to catch Brantford and get home ice so they're going all-out.

My guess - the standings remain the same. It'll finish...

17. Sarnia
18. Ptbo
19. Windsor
20. Niagara

Petes could pass Sarnia.

If nothing else I'm impressed with the effort last night. Would be easy to fold but they didn't. Players going down and blocking shots just before golf season is impressive. There will be a lot of changes this off season but there are definitely some bright spots. Be safe.

Change of pace, here. My Dad used to have a pair of seats in 117, about 4 rows off the ice, back before/during/after the back-to-back Mem. Cup years. I’m all grown up, now, and have a daughter who’ll be 4 to start next season. Looking to get a pair of seats in 104, hoping to see the whole Ice.

Anyone sit over there regularly that can talk about what rows to look at for the best views of everything? Experiences with the crowd over there? Is it safe to bring a little one to, regularly? I know some sections have their characters.

Rows J, K or L are best. Not too high or too low. Above the glass so you can hear the game but not too high that the are hard to get to. Also the easiest access entering the bowl. Now if you buy season tickets and don't like the view they will move you if there are seats available where you want to sit. Hope that helps.

Tie breakers. Regulation wins plus OT wins. Shootouts don't count. If dogs win and Spits lose-same number of wins but not sure of Shootouts wins total by either team. 2nd is break head to head. Dogs beat us both games 3rd tie break goal differential. We lose 2nd and 3rd tie breakers.

Currently, Windsor is two points up on Niagara and they're tied for regulation wins + overtime wins.

IF Windsor loses and Niagara wins tonight...

They would be tied in points. It would then go to the first tiebreaker which is ROW and, in this situation, Niagara would take that 18-17.
If ROW means regular + overtime wins then SPITS would end up 20th? Correct?

Yes if Niagara wins in regulation or overtime but not in a shootout. Windsor would need to lose in regulation, not get any points. If Niagara wins in a shootout they would be tied in points and ROW. Tie breaker then is either most goals or head to head? Not sure on this but to be honest I don't see Niagara beating Sudbury when they still need points as well. Also Niagara's goalie is hurt . Let's just win the lottery and none of this really matters!

Just play a competitive game tonight in a regulation loss, and hope for a Niagara win. Let’s get the top pick, and build this thing.


That said, is there anywhere to get detailed reports on the top 10 or so in this draft, and a list of what picks we have?

Windsor has 7 picks in the 1st 4 rounds including 1 1st,2 2nds,1 3rd and 3-4ths.
The 2 -2nds are ones from Niagara and Peterborough so basically 3 picks in top 25 of the upcoming draft.
Last year in comparison Windsor 1 in the 1st
and then did not have a selection till the 5th.
