Why a 4:00 o'clock game on a Sunday, Easter Sunday at that? That is such an awkward time for a game.

 

[Duke Guy]

I think that 4:00 game is to get both teams out on the road sooner to get up to the Soo for game 3.

 

[cupcrazyman]

Great to see Hughes get the start in net vs Kitchener & win on the road. Goaltending looks great for the future !

 

[CrazyStingFan]

I think the 2016-2017 roster was leaked early

Well congrats Sting on their new record and to Travis.Lets keep things moving forward.More records could be broke today.BUT they need to concentrate on SSM.This season wont be a success until we hit second rd playoffs at best.O/A hits the spotlight tonight.Great job by all 3.PK 100% last 2 nights.Very crucial.

So why not have a 2 o'clock game so people can get to Easter dinner. If both teams are leaving for the Soo after, why so late in the afternoon? Doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

 

[honey bee]

I agree, why not 2:00 o'clock.

 

[massey]

I agree, why not 2:00 o'clock.

Would like to hear the reason for 4:05 vs a 2:05 start time.

Congrats to Sting for the best PK in the OHL.

It may be that Sportsnet wants to cover the game? - they do a lot of late Sunday afternoon games.

Hello Sting fans. Congrats on winning the West Division, coming from behind and finishing the season strong.

Hound fan here. Looking forward to watching this series progress. Something about playoff hockey especially in the OHL. Love the additions of Konecny and Mistele. Gonna be difficult to contain those two and Zacha. And getting that veteran experience with Graham sure helps your already strong defense. Add those to the team you already had and looks like some exciting playoff hockey to be seen in Sarnia.S

Still have a soft spot for Spinozzi and Salinitri and will secretly cheer them on during this series. No predictions on my part. Hoping for a good ol' fashion OHL division rival series.

 

[Ferda11]

Stinker last night at home vs the spits but it was expected. Meaningless game.

Excited for some playoff hockey. Should be a good match up with SSM. Lot's of speed on both sides.

Predictions?
I'm gonna say Sarnia in 5 games.

I heard Studnicka will be in, White is most likely out for the first two games.

We'll be fine, wouldn't hurt to get Pat White back for the PK though.

Here we go countdown is on, Go Sting Go! Make quick work of the Hounds

[Scorcho]

Sarnia V SSM is a dream series for devils fans.

[Mayday3*]

Thanks guy97. What about Fazio?

whether he's healthy or not you likely won't see him lol

Hey guys, where has Connor Schlichting been lately? Haven't seen him on game sheets and haven't heard any news that he was injured. I know he didn't play much last year but he was an invite to an NHL camp last summer and was hoping to see him put up some numbers this year.

White did the first few drills, Sam had done the entire practice..

What do you mean by this?

he means graham will play all the games.

Heard about a little mishap at practice the other day...apparently an altercation between Bushnell and Lindburg. Both we kicked out of practice and didn't participate in the skate with the sting after the practice on Tuesday. This isn't the best time to have teammates at each others throats..hopefully it was just something minor and has been taken care of.
