SSM Greyhounds 2023 - 2024 Season Thread (Part 3)

[OHLfan200]

I’m here for all these tears tonight.

There’s not a bigger cry baby fan base in the O.

 

[Kingpin794]

GG hounds. Don’t let anyone say you guys weren’t as much of a contender as us or London or anyone in the CHL.

 

[BeliveauFan4ever]

Hounds’ engine sputtered from the get go. Struggled mightily on breakouts and chased it for 50 out of 60.

Not a great way to go out.

Good season, better than expected.

 

[crowncarrier]

Damn that linesmen must be on the take to knock that puck down for Saginaw so they could fire it in the net.

This has to be a joke right.

 

[Agent 53]

This has to be a joke right.

It is, for all the tin foil hat Soo fans who think it was fixed.

 

[DWI Dale]

I predicted a 2nd round exit yet again. Was hoping they would prove me wrong but that was a bad effort tonight.
Until we do a proper full rebuild we won't get past the 2nd round

2nd round exit was my prediction as well they ended being better than I thought but didn't achieve a better result. I hope Kyle oversees a proper rebuild and we come back in 3 years with full cupboards and a juggernaut team.

 

[hounds99]

Raftis old the farm for the same result we would have had prior trade deadline.

And Dean can't motivate enough. Time for some new blood to take over.

Oshawa and london black in conference finals again. Greyhounds management, will you please notice a system that works!

 

[rve24]

hounds go out with a whimper.

Only saw game 7, but ya , didn't see much push thru this game with the season on the line. Outside a late 2nd period push and the last 3/4 min push your looking at 10/12 shots. Got doubled up n just couldn't generate much for whatever reason.
Again I only saw this game so not sure what the others wrre like.
Enjoyed the SSM games vs LK this year and know you'll be back

 

[StingUpdates]

Certainly looked like a team that felt the moment a bit tonight because for large stretches in this series u were the better team. Schenkel was fantastic. Shut down Bloom/Beck, too. Just never got it going offensively tonight.

 

[OHLfan200]

On the other side of the coin.. It’s kind of funny you’re making these comments, with the simple aspect of Saginaw’s “class” being questioned by many people on this forum this year.

sure there is some truth in your comments but all fan bases are littered with fans like that.. Nonetheless good luck in the next round..

 

[hounds99]

And this first round draft picks? We need to draft better....bmb should have dominated tonight. No consistency. Justin cloutier. Great ohl player. Definitely not 1st round and was pretty much shut down all series...

And oh chris brown. What a bust. I don't even know If this kids a 15th rounder. Having him on the penalty kill and the one who.gave the puck away for the opening saginaw goal. Just brutal player management from Dean.
Tate Vader should have taken his spot along time ago.

End of the day. No depth. No business being in the cup.chase.

In all honesty the league is pretty watered down since covid and if we played teams that were around in the 2018 run, this team would legit be crushed

 

[Buttsy]

Raftis old the farm for the same result we would have had prior trade deadline.

In fairness it was a tough year to make a call to go all in or stand pat or even to sell. You knew Saginaw was going to load up as hosts, London looked strong since the New Year and of course you guys were right there. I think it was a go for it year but you knew one of the Big Three was not going to be happy. You were to good to sell, maybe standing pat was an option but how do the fans and players accept it? Tough call for sure, team played well maybe just a bit inconsistent?

Exactly, some of those guys from 2018 are in their mid 20’s now.

Congrats on a dominating season... First class organization.

Parehk is the dirtiest player in the league and a coward when someone wants to do something about it. I can’t wait until he catches his, karma will get him.

Saginaw sucks too, hate them as well, hope London Sweeps and they get swept in the memorial cup. Would be amazing.

There’s a handful of really crappy fan bases, yours just takes the cake as the worst.

Ah a knights fan? Thank you for your kind words. I apologize to the Saginaw fans who I rudely included in my previous comments regarding you. You’re just a great ball of sunshine! You’d think your team was the one who just got ousted..

Also, so nice of you to wait until the end of the series to deliver all of these kind words.. What a coincidence

Nope not a Knights fan either.

My team is no longer here, but I really enjoy the league.

Hard to get a word in here with all the crying and conspiracy theories being discussed.

Posting history seems to be all over the place, but not in the Knights thread. Sorry... not one of ours

 

[hounds99]

Like I said the league and the 2018 hounds team at same age funny guy is no comparison.

There were no rob thomas, Robertsons, frost.....etc....I could go on and on. The top 10 teams had lots of depth and character guys.

Like ive said before the model that dubas designed does make for exciting hockey but it lacks the grit for playoff hockey

I’ll see you guys Friday! Don’t worry!

Flint fan, I think.

 

[DWI Dale]

London trolls are way more clever than that

You are the only one discussing conspiracy theories here tonight, and we are entitled to our little cry. If you can't get your word in here nobody will lose sleep over it.
