[windsor7]

Costanzo starts

 

[ohloutsider]

Not the start they wanted I'm sure.

 

[tomschman]

The Spits in White, Green and Gold is just plain wrong.

 

[ohloutsider]

Spits might want to fire up the engines? Not an inspired start.

 

[windsor7]

Horrible 1st.
Coaching didn't have them ready
Soft defense

 

[ohloutsider]

Well Beltchz knows how to start on time, scored 14 seconds into the game.

It’s stupid and I hate it. especially against a team in green and yellow. I hope they lose and never wear these again

 

[windsor7]

Windsor knows they can actually hit right? Lol

They think the game starts at 9

Never a fan of seeing the Spitfires in London-esque colours…

Well the first part of the wish might come true.

And thats why I wanted them to call ppl up lol. This team looks dead tonight. Everyone is getting outmatched and they're playing very weak hockey. The second I saw there were going 11/7 I had a bad feeling. Good luck in the 3rd but you're gonna need a miracle to win this one tbh.

(P.S never wear the St. Clair stuff again lol)

NB playing well, Spits playing bad and this is the result you should expect.

If they would just play the whole game like the last 5 minutes might have been a different result.

 

[lazyboy]

those gawd awful jerseys may have been the best part of that game, save the last 5 min maybe

NB came in inspired, skating and forechecked us silly. Spits look like they came from an all you can eat pasta eating contest and stopped at the cannibis store on the way to the game. NB played all 5 deep in thier zone all game knowing we have no shot threat from the point. Yes, some pushback late but only because we created a odd man advantage pulling Joey. JC caused his own demise on their 3 and 4th goals. 2 and 5 didn't help with Cristo out of position trying to draw attention from being rubbef out in the corner and Walton lazy stick check allowing his man a rebound second shot. 1st goal happened while stragglers were still sitting down so I missed that one. Checking must have been optional tonight. Hoping this was a one off night and not a lazy pattern setting in. In 2nd place currently in the west now and could be in 3rd by Monday if London wins a couple and we don't tighten our laces. Show us that a good team bounces back!! Go Spits!!

That was a bad game. In the first period they seemed disinterested. At least they did not quit in the 3rd. J.C. gave up two very bad goals but he has been so good all season, you can't be upset. Bowler needs to acquire a solid d-man, if its costly, so be it, they have a lot of picks. I don't want to name names but there is a d-man that played tonight who should not be on the squad.

Greentree on that 5 on 3... He took 3 shots in a row, with all three being blocked. You gotta pass the puck more on a 5 on 3 instead of taking dumb shots with a defender right in front of you. They should bump Outwater up a line, he works every shift and is collecting points. Belchetz having a dominant tournament for Canada, be nice to get him back next week.

Not a big deal, it's how you rebound after the bad games. Saginaw will be a hard one, they just became the first squad to lose against the Petes who we host on Sunday.
