Windsor Spitfires 2024-25 Season Thread, Part IV

[OHLTG]

I'll never quite understand the instigator rule in the league. You'll see guys square off and one get the instigator, while Nesbitt is still holding stick/gloves and nothing.

Froggett in goal. Looks like Winegard moves up front while Hicks is 7th D and scratched after warmups.

Looked like Garden was the ? Scratch for this game?

Yep, good catch. 11F/7D.

44 could be a forward.
He's up in that position most times during game anyways

Nice Eastern road trip later in the season isn't a bad thing, nothing like a road trip to build more chemistry down the stretch here. As mentioned no teams should be taken lightly regardless of where they are in the standings. The Pete's seem like a more defensive style team, so could be a low scoring grind it out type of win tonight.

The Spitfires need to come for battle and bring a good structured gameplay regardless of the team on the other end. No light games at this level of hockey and need to bring it on a game to game basis to be successful in this league.

Hope to see Froggett perform well tonight. Team also needs to play a well rounded game in front of him. Hoping for a great weekend and 6 points on this 3 game eastern swing.

Congrats to Greentree and Protas for each reaching the 100pt mark tonight. Protas 1G 1A, Greentree 1A.

It's most of the offensive this year..

Hope someone reminds them they have had a 3 goal lead before.

BTW, Belchetz is now at 2 fights against the limit.

Helluva start to this one. Lots of goals, solid D, and they're staying disciplined.

To be honest they are starting to play a bit sloppy. Big leads make it hard to focus.

A bit sloppy but they've kept their foot on the pedal. Just have to do that in the third and they're fine.

They r getting pushed around a lot.
Tougher be good

Is that Greentree 4th fight?
Some rest coming his way..

 

[OHLTG]

Strohak instigated the fight so that won't count towards Greentree.

I haven't seen all of the penalties yet from the third so I'll wait and reserve comment about that.

That said, 7-1 final. Shots were roughly 38-26 Windsor. I know you SHOULD beat the Petes, but that's a tough team and have been playing better hockey. Three of their last four games were decided by a goal (the other was two goals).

They should have beat Sarnia and Flint last week but didn't.
