Windsor Spitfires 2024-25 Season Thread, Part I

[hockeylegend11]

Saw online Re Quebec Remparts Jack Greenwell has reported to the Remparts picture of him holding a Quebec jersey.

It's pretty close, yeah. I wouldn't be shocked if Morneau is in there somewhere.

BTW, sounds like Greenwell has been sent to the Quebec Remparts.

Surprised after his training camp play they couldn't trade him. Would you agree?

Bowler no partners..

So who's wearing our letters this season?

C - Greentree
A - Abraham
A - Spellacy
A - Mathurin
A - Cristoforo

Does this look accurate? Missed the first game so I don't know who was wearing letters then.

According to the OHL site, tonight it's C Greentree with Abraham, Cristoforo, and Mathurin having the As. However, Mathurin is a late scratch.

That Froggett save is a save Joey usually doesn’t make. Saves like that is what could win a game or stop the bleeding or keep a team from getting the momentum. That being said he should have had the first goal.

Missed assignment by defense.

Christoforo with 2 assists so far after 1 period,5 points in 1st 2 games so far,last year he had 0 in his 1st 2,2 in his 1st 4 games.
Nesbitt with 2 goals so far this season after 4 periods of work,last year he had 2 after his 1st 18 games.

Apparently a new camera person in Sarnia, lol. They seem to struggle on where the puck is.

If the Spits can improve on the faceoffs they will be hard to deal with.

Lemieux was the 2nd pick and was signed and he stays all year. Auto A card. Cannot be sent down to B or traded as he was not a 1st rounder. That is why Davis wasn't signed initially and the year before Manzo. Second picks ( not necessarily 2nd round) stick if they signed with the OHL club. Both 2nd picks overall by the Spits signed with Lasalle so they could be sent there. Nothing new here. Just this year with 6 signed with 2 being US born players makes it confusing and highly rare. Garden, Windbiel, Belchetz, Lemieux make the roster based on rules. Belchetz and Lemieux are the 2 regular roster spots and Garden andvWindbiel are the 2 allowed wild card roster spots. 4 total 16 yr olds as per CHL rule book. Hicks and Brocklehurst are Canadian born so they can be sent to Jr B. If Windbiel and Garden were Canadian, Bowler could have assigned any of the 4 to Lasalle etc.

I might have missed a post but where are Windbiel and Garden playing when not called up since they can't go Jr B?

The first goal was a bit of a hiccup but that save might be on the OHL season reel.

I like the potential that Greentree/Nesbitt/Belchetz brings. If they can get some practice in together, that could be a dangerous trio.

3-1 after 20. Let's keep it going.

Garden is playing for Windsor.

Cristoforo still very soft play on ice..

 

[Bourne]

No A for Christoforo

Well he wore one after the deadline last season, he's probably likely to wear it this season as well. Unless they decide to give one to morneau

 

[windsor7]

Blown game.
Have to learn

 

[ohloutsider]

Windsor still struggling in Sarnia. Spits let that one slip away. At least 1 point.
