Windsor Spitfires 2023-24 Season Thread (Part 2)

[Knownothing]

Anyone know if Castle is still around? Former 1st round pick, 19 yo vet that can’t crack the lineup of the last place team says a lot. But also equals his contribution.

Around? I believe so. Not playing tonight? Correct. Been underwhelming? Yes. I don't know what's happened with him but, when he does play, it's third or fourth line spotty duty. He's shown flashes of ability to play on the top lines but those are few and far between.

Kind of a bust acquisition by Bowler..

Maybe he asked out? Pretty sure they listed him as a minor injury a week or two ago, but just saw everyone but Toms be scratched tonight without a reason given

He has nerve asking out with his on ice performance the past 1.5 seasons

 

[windsor7]

Looks like Bowler behind the bench.
Not defense coach hopefully. He didn't play any during his career.

I almost wonder if Castle has checked out. He rarely seems emotional on the ice and almost appears to be going through the motions.

He's not the only one..

I’m asking for him out, does that count? Lol.

Agreed about emotion, seems to lack it. Part of why I loved Dionicio. Yeah, he took some bad penalties from emotion, but I’d rather have those guys who care too much than not enough

 

[windsor7]

Windsor played a decent 1st period.
1 line playing at least.
Shiny new coach usually gets a couple games of good hockey.

 

[Cherrydon]

Was that Colton Smith coming back behind his own goal line to help? Yes it was. Much harder on pucks tonight both zones forcthe entire team. Keep it going Spits!@

 

[punch1943]

Best period the Spits have played all year. Up 2-0 and it could’ve been more. Costanzo with very little work.BB on the bench. Not very physical. Defense has played well.

 

[windsor7]

21 shots in 1st.
That's almost a full games worth some nites.

 

[OHLTG]

Mancini wearing an A.

 

[mag1600]

Why isn't Connor Toms back in the lineup tonight? His suspension is over and he is a veteran d-man.

 

[windsor7]

Pete's pushing Windsor around like many teams have

 

[windsor7]

Nice Davis goal.
Good effort

Tonight's his last game suspended.

 

[punch1943]

Spits lead 3-2 after 2. Pete's took control in the 2nd but COSTANZO kept the Spits in it until a shorthand goal put the Spits ahead.The 3rd has not been our friend this year. Hopefully this one will be better.

 

[windsor7]

Windsor doing a lot of the little things right.
Using the boards more often in defensive zone.

 

[DetSpitsFan]

Tonight's his last game suspended.

-22 would be enough for me to sit him lol

 

[windsor7]

-22 would be enough for me to sit him lol

Enough to not have a card used on him..

 

[windsor7]

Windsor going to win a game.
Been a few weeks.

 

[OHLTG]

This is fun... now, keep it going!!
