They have a 90 second preview before they ask you to buy a ticket. Great quality being shown, much better than OHL Livestream.

Bunnaman scored in the first
Quick turn in the high slot after recovering the puck and whipped it in.
Meireles scored a breakaway goal after muscling past and out skating a defender.
Stanley got in a fight, not sure what got him so hot, but he got the instigator, and a game misconduct after sufficiently pummelling his opponent.
But NB has scored two PP goals early third for a 3-2 NB lead.

I altered the Vid stream resolution and could sometimes make out the numbers on players' backs. lol Rangers had tweeted the lineup so that helped somewhat with who was on the ice. Not in the lineup: Garreffa, Mascherin, Henderson, Carter, Hugg, Hall, Gentles
It looked as though the opposing player was prepared to throw down his gloves but Stanley beat him to it and then demolished him. His absence from the game was obvious and the 5 on 3 going into the 3rd hurt them.
Rangers looked good in the 1st......sagged in the 2nd......and didn't give up in the 3rd. Bunnaman from Liska and Vallati tied it up with seconds remaining. Then the shootout. Only one player scored....Brampton. I do hate shootouts. I can't help but wonder why Liska wasn't used in the shootout.
And yes.....an empty barn. The new Rangers are going to be in for a treat when they play the exhibition game at the Aud.

Brampton Bombers JrA...Kitchener is in trouble....they should have brought their own goal judge!
I also altered my feed quality at the bottom. It did lag at times, but a simple pause and wait a few minutes and I had the 480p setting running nicely.
Definitely saw a lot to like in the game with the speed of the forwards showing.
Will be watching again today
And yes, I can't wait for the new guys to see the Aud on the 16th, lots of excitement for this season!
Oh boy, did we look sloppy today.
Pfeil was in net, and we dressed a lot of young guys.
Need to work on cleaning up the passing, lots of slow passes getting picked off leading to breakaways or odd man chances for Peterborough.
I can't see Pfeil staying as a backup long term. If McGonigle isn't ready for the season, we may need to pull the trigger on a trade.
One more game in the tournament tomorrow night then a week of practice with a bunch of guys leaving for NHL camps after that. Hopefully coaches are ready to make some tweaks and get us ready for the season.

Pete's had Wells in net (Oilers prospect) as well as Ang and others. Rangers had young Pfeil in net (#4 goalie). I thought considering that the kid did well. He was left to hang out to dry more than once.
No Stanley, Mascherin (of course), Bunnaman, Meireles, Henderson, and Liska. The lines were mixed with rookies. No PP unit. Just whatever line, they happened to send out. Coaches seem more focused on evaluating the younger players than worrying about the outcome. Hey, that's what exhibition is for.
At 5-3 for the Pete's in the 3rd, Rangers had an opportunity to make it 4 on a PP but Ang grabbed the puck and blew past (York?.....not sure) and boom, it was 6-3. They kept trying to the end and the shots overall were pretty even.
McHugh's turn to get into a fight and earn a game misconduct.
Also that day, Sarnia whomped London (returning the favour) and Guelph beat Missy (with McLeod etc playing).
Erie tonight...yet to lose. I'll be interested in seeing the lineup.

This is my concern with York. In my viewings, he has really struggled with the outside speed of players his age. Some vets in this league will eat him up.
Been more impressed with Peterson then York. Getting shots through and has the size I'd like on the blue line.

LoneRanger on RR whose opinion seems to be respected even when mentioned here is fairly high on him, more so than Gentles and Peterson. I'm willing to watch him myself during a regular season game before writing him off. Even then I'd give him some time to adjust to this league. Peterson has never gotten a lot of time, but I was rarely impressed beyond decent size. Haven't seen him yet this year, hoping he has made some kind of next step in his game. It will be interesting to see how the bottom pairing takes shape this season, definitely some question marks there.
I was looking at the annual reports from the Rangers and they list the various committees but there is no hockey committee. Does it still exist? If not who looks after the subscriber's interests in hockey decisions?

Who hires the COO?
My admittedly uninformed opinion is the committee was formally disbanded to make it inaccessible (unaccountable?) I'm fairly sure there is some sort of committee in place that hires Bienkowski and approves his hockey moves.
Binky is like the Teflon Don. Let's hope he's finally made a decent move hiring MM. I'm cautiously optimistic right now.
Nice story from Josh Brown in the Record about Connor Hall and Doug Blaisdell.
They sure were missed when their injuries ended their season last year. Having them back and adding Logan Stanley will be a huge benefit this season.

He's been a little tentative in my opinion. It would probably be best for him to play a year of Jr B getting lots of minutes then to sit in the press box for the Rangers.
Rangers have a lot of returning forwards and two new import forwards. Not much room for the rookie.

Fanelli never ceases to amaze us with his dedication to good causes, which are many. Another good read, although not sure where I came across it is this top 500 2018 NHL draft list. Noce to see Peyton mentioned and interesting to see Guest above Damiani but I guess it's who you ask. http://www.thedraftanalyst.com/2018-nhl-draft/2018-nhl-draft-rankings-the-preseason-500/
