Surprise it wasn’t more

was that a result of the 2 min high sticking penalty or the 2 min cross checking penalty.
Usually the game sheet tells the story of these things but nothing obvious on this one...

5 games for threatening.
Obviously was not thinking straight, he should have spit in the guy’s face.

LOL too funny. I wonder if you threaten to kill a guy without making the "knife across the neck" motion with your hand, do you still get 5 games?

 

[Tarantula]

Fore go the immediate satisfaction of the throat slash gesture and ultimate suspension and simply send an anonymous letter with cut out letters from various newspapers and magazines with the phrase "you sleep with the fishes"...

We all know the OHL is full of murderous villains that have committed horrible crimes against humanity so the powers that be are proceeding with caution. Hockey players running amok amongst the general population.

Geez - Vermeulen got 2 games for his fight

Geez - Vermeulen got 2 games for his fight

Very selfish play and penalty by Vermeulen. If he wasn't suspended by the league, Boudreau should have sat him for 2 games. He was lucky he didn't cost his team a win.

I mean, that’s a little Harsh, but precision kid or whatever the hell his name is hit him for no reason after the whistle has blown. Yes I understand you’re supposed to skate away but 90% of the guys wouldbt after that. It was also that kid that injured levin early in the first..

 

[Drop the Puck]

Anything promising on the horizon for this team, or, is this it for the foreseeable future?

 

[WorkHardEveryShift]

Tough to start your road trip like that. Need to regroup quickly to turn the weekend around. I'd still like to see what this team could do with a full roster. Seems like we haven't had a full team in 2 years

The theory is that the owner likes to go with a small roster to save costs. Less players mean less scholarships to pay, less meals, less hotel rooms, fewer monthly stipends, etc. They only have 6 defencemen and 13 forwards on the roster and apparently one of the forwards is done for the season. So basically they only have 18 skaters on the roster. plus call-ups.

Tough northern swing three defeats. did not help with a short bench started Thursday by being thumped in North Bay. 12 to 1 then Friday night thumping in Sudbury 6 to. 1 and then a close 2 to 1 loss to Sault. Next game in Erie on Valentine day hope to have some players back.
