Windsor Spitfires 2024 25 Season Thread Part Iv

Gotta say that's the first time I've ever seen a player get a penalty for goalie interference where he didn't touch the goalie!
Well.. Spitfire player hammered #25 right into him. Can argue both sides. I didn’t think it was intentional, just a collision due to the speed/pace of the game. Two players going hard to the net. Ultimately it’s just really unfortunate.. considering the Hounds’ season is in huge jeopardy with backup in net. Huge break for Windsor, that’s about all that can be said.

I don't find alcohol poisoning all that fun.

Somehow, every Spits player is Woodall, and yet there was a play where it was actually Woodall, and he said Robinson.

But I mean, it's a tough job, and he's a volunteer. So I won't complain (too much, I guess).

Spits played a good period. SOO had almost zero offensive zone time 5 on 5. Gotta convert on some of these chances. Protas has had two glorious opportunities. He's so overdue for a goal.

I was thinking that. What a weird officiated playoffs across the league so far. Nesbitt took a stick to the back of his head too, no call.

Surprised on the amount of high sticks that have gone, while other stuff has been left alone. Kennedy cross check was worthy of 2 on Nordh, but nothing.

Not sure you can say hammered.. they touched but not with much force at all. I don't quite get what Reid was thinking. Dude was going 100MPH directly at his own net. If he didn't make contact with Hicks I think he stills blows Lalonde up & if not comes dangerously close too.

Can't fight anymore so stick work increases.

I’d say the Hounds season was more in jeopardy by finishing 7th… but hicks had the breaks on when Reid cut him off and obliterated his own goalie. Far from intentional on either side.

Reid didn’t want Hicks near the LaLonde, and unfortunately trucked him in the process.

Lol. There’s a great slow motion angle on Facebook that shows a lot different. I’m Trying to be unbiased. If Windsor blew the Hounds out in game 3 I would agree with your “jeopardy” point, but what a drastic difference in Home vs Away play for the spits. I mean I might as well of said that Hicks should be tossed. Cheers

Link to it? Because what StingUpdates posted is the same angle the Soo broadcast has shown on replay 3-4 times

No reason Reid needed to be charging in like that. Hicks try’s to stop so he forest run the goaltender and Reid blows right by and crushes Lalonde

Protas and Morneau with late goals. Windsor doesn't have the same energy they have at home but they're finding a way. Just have to watch the third period as the Soo is going to full press.
Thry play a different game away.
No reason for it.
Normal players scoring for Windsor.
Secondly scoring..
 
Right now, I don't care who scores for Windsor, as long as somebody does. Protas/Morneau/Greentree doing it? Great. Literally anyone else doing it? Great. Wins are (generally) more important than who does what.
 
Nasty spear by Carlisle on Protas who is still down and injured, no penalty. Protas is straight to the room does not look good. Dude needs to be suspended the rest of the series. The spear was after the whistle. Insane, he does not even get a penalty.
