Yep, it was actually about 48 minutes of the best hockey I've seen the team and Cavallin play all year. Staying right in there with one of the league heavyweights. Little concerned they might be worn out going into today's game against another powerhouse with a superstar netminder. Hopefully Wellwood can work a little magic. The Keppen-Morgan-Wismer line has looked good. It's nice to Wismer getting chances and producing. For those that haven't noticed, Morgan has played 8 games in Flint. He has 6 points and is +6 in 8 games!45 minutes of good effort. Cavallin played exceptional. The last 15 minutes Ice Dogs got to them.

I’m still waiting for the supposed “sources”. Should I hold my breath? Should I call in some investigative report to figure out these lame duck sources? You claim to want hockey to stay in Flint but everytime you speak, it says otherwise. What is your issue against this team. We know you disagree with the ownership. We all don’t like that situation. And we all hope it can be turned around. Just be happy they are being competitive and not rolling over. These kids have fight and are being coached up. Which is what you want from a developmental league.
Yeah, that's mostly been it. He'll be lights out for awhile and make big saves off defensive breakdowns. A couple will get by him and the defensive breakdowns will continue and he'll start letting some by. Both scenarios have improved lately and the lack of confidence (?) rarely carries over to the next start for Cavallin. It's getting better and clearly the post-deadline Niagara and Oshawa squads are superior to ANY line-up they faced pre-deadline or since. Even with Oshawa throwing us a softie by starting Hughes. It's just momentary lapses now, where early on it was 60 minutes of back door goals, major miscues and often lack of effort. It's getting better, I was really happy with how the boys (and especially Cavallin) played for 40-50 minutes against the Dogs and Gens.Cavallin looked really good and confident through 40 minutes today. Made several big saves. But then lost all confidence when the Gens scored a couple quick ones in the 3rd. I assume that's been his problem all year? Hopefully he can gain some confidence as the team starts to be healthy and win more

Was impressed with the team for all 3 of the first 2 periods but then they fell apart in the 3rd in all 3 games.It's not fair to blame last nights loss solely on Cavallin. He had nothing to do with the Firebirds being fully out played and out shot 18-9 in the third period.
Did you notice last night that the Birds were standing up showing the in tenseness of being into the game at their bench for most of the first and second period? After that first goal that Oshawa scored in the third period to tie the game up it seemed to deflate them. All of the players for the rest of the period were sitting down and were not exhibiting the energy on the bench that they were doing during the first and second periods.
This team gave up 14 third period goals in the three games this weekend. Not many teams who end up giving up nearly an average of 5 goals in the third period end up winning games.
Face it, there is a reason that this team is 8-36-3-0. You can blame injuries, youth, inexperience, bad breaks, short benches and so on. But when it really comes down to it, it is the level of talent on this team and the obstacles (in which the players have no control over) that exists in Flint that has prevented this team to show any consistent improvement BOTH at home and on the road.
Expect for this to continue till the end of the season, especially on the road.
At least there was one person in Canada who was grateful that the Firebirds were there at the right place and the right time...Good job boys.

If the boys are no longer motivated then it is Wellwood's job to get them back up.
I agree that we will see much of the same in the 2nd half of the season but honestly do you have to always post the record. Everyone knows what it is...
she is intentionally being disruptive. that's why she does it. Just a mean hateful person in need of therapy if you ask me. That's the last I have to say about it. checking out!Was impressed with the team for all 3 of the first 2 periods but then they fell apart in the 3rd in all 3 games.

Eric Uba ranked 150th by NHL Central Scouting so it looks like he has a decent chance of being drafted.
I remember watching his very first game in the Soo and I've been impressed with him ever since. It's nice to see a later round pick having success in Flint. That needs to happen more often and the team will find more success.
No shi... I had checked his stats earlier in the year. Haven't looked lately. Thanks for the heads-up. I only missed the first 15 minutes or so.Smereck playing in the ECHL All Star game tonight
Are you referring to me as being disruptive and hateful. I really hope not as I am not sure how posting what I did is disruptive to the point where I require therapy.she is intentionally being disruptive. that's why she does it.

Nope was referring to someone else who takes a perverse joy posting the teams win loss record at the end of each TL;DR wall of text Thread crap she deposits. Sorry for any confusion.Are you referring to me as being disruptive and hateful. I really hope not as I am not sure how posting what I did is disruptive to the point where I require therapy.
Because it’s on Tomorrow NightI didn't see any posts mentioning of broadcast time and availability of tonight's CHL/NHL Top Prospects Game.
Here is a link listing game time and channel availability in both Canada and the US.
