ina manora speakin.I thought the love hormone could be found at the manor?
To me looks like you've got 6 pt a game guys over the last 8 games.Cant say those numbers are bad
Maybe more from Suzuki but he had 8pts in his first 3 games. Nothing much the past few games so perhaps he could pick it up but beyond that those numbers arent bad
Here are our forwards production in the last 5 games. What do we think?
Hawel 6 pts
Ratcliffe 6 pts
Entwistle 6 pts
Toropenko 6pts
Schnarr 5 pts
Ralph 3 pts
Stevenson 3 pts
Suzuki 1 pt
Commisso 0 pts
Roberts 0 pts
Collins 0 pts
have confidence for this group.. if each is lit and burns to their capability.. as one... they're gonna really cook..!.. I have a good feeling about this team ... ... one day ata time..!I will say Commisso is one of Guelph's better faceoff guys
lotta Z's in trade names lately..Durzi now an LA Kings prospect .. Leafs get Muzzin..D
I still believe we sold the farm for a team that won’t get past the second round.
They play as individuals not as a team
This year was always intended to be the peak of a cycle. We could have been conservative and not upgraded, gone out in a playoff round or two, and then lost most of the 1999s for nothing. Instead, we got a makeover to get behind. GMGB read the buyers market correctly. The team need time to gel as a team. I have seen more positives around this group than any team play from the pre-trade nucleus.
Did we give up picks, yes. Did we make use of all those players we picked recently, no. Look at all the youth traded off before we loaded up. They did not want to be here anyway. At least we got players and not picks or prospects. If we had more success finding impact players in multiple rounds of the draft, I would have a different opinion.
The excitement for this year is much better than holding the status quo would have been.
That may be very well and true but from what I've seen I haven't seen many positives. I agree we gave up players that didn't want to play here anymore for one reason or another. But, we are getting beat by teams that are below us in the standings, those games should be sure wins and need these points if we want to avoid playing London in the second round.
My confidence isn't as high as yours and I still believe we won't get by the second round. I sure hope I'm wrong
let them worry bout us..We will have to go through London or the Sault at some point. BUT we have to get through the first round first.
the ingredients are there ..couple later adds from injury .. and this team will COOK!.I am concerned though about over coaching... let them run..I remember a few years back, The Ice Dogs where a fairly disappointing regular season team but they turned it up in the playoffs when it mattered the most. Of course they got swept by London in the finals but regardless they at least turned it around. Guelph will be fine.

I've seen some of the most brilliant talent fettered by over coaching.... of course every team and player has unique assets.. but coaching is a fine art..ya got ta know when ta hold em ... know when ta fold em..I just gut feeling ;.. get the impression this group is smart enough and talented enough to run for it... just open the gate .. Hope the injured return safely .. and stay healthy..This is a CAN DO group!.By overcoaching, do you mean this trend where it appears they are playing an energy conservation game for the first two periods with the intention of turning on the jets in the third and overtaking an opposing tired team? I've been trying to figure out the lackadaisical starts in the opening periods for awhile now.....I was trying to attribute it to some sort of strategy being employed from behind the pine...
