Guelph Storm 2018-19 Season Thread (Part 3)

[barclayplager]

I like both teams...Saginaw has gone thru some lean times...might root for them ….they have shaken the curse of Bert...

 

[sbpointer]

Guelph is a team built for the playoffs and are really rolling now. Hopefully some of these games are shown on sportsnet because it should be fun to watch but I hate paying 7.99 to watch a game on tv.

Not sure where you are but the quality of the feed where we are is extremely glitchy.

 

[Living Vicariously]

Meh

 

[battfan888]

That was pretty ugly tonight
Some people I'm sure will freak about the no goal call and perhaps it could have been a turning point but make no mistake the Storm got out played in every aspect of the game tonight. Nobody had a particularly good game. Defence had some bad turnovers and once again had a helluva time clearing their own zone. Poppy wasn't at his best like he had during the comeback. Just a bad night all around.

The good news is they can hopefully rest up tomorrow and if they can take game 2 they can still take away home ice.

 

[storm surge]

Meh

I'll second that Meh..1 nothin or 7-2 ..a loss isa loss.... just feelin them out..settin up for the knock out.

I didn’t watch the game but it’s very common for a team to lose game one after winning a seven game series. No reason to panic. I am wrong or did it not look like a great game for Poppy?

 

[barclayplager]

..I am guessing Storm/Fans hate London like the rest of us.....need to hate Spirit..am sure it will rise...7 games would not be a stretch….

No it wasn't one of his better games. But I have faith that he and the rest of the team will bounce back and it will be a better game for all of them.

after the series with the Knights you guys can be pretty confident in your squad

That might be why no one has been panicky yet.

its good to be confident in your team

When you get down 3 games to none to Saginaw, you realize you should have panicked sooner. I speak from experience.

My panic level has no influence on the team. I know what they can do if they decide to amp it up. The team has to decide to do it sooner than later.

 

[Hardcore Techno]

I watched the Hounds, Spirit elimination game live. Unless Guelph gets goal tending.its over.

 

[TheCoach]

That might be why no one has been panicky yet.

Saginaw isnt london they have alot more talented game breakers Spirit in 5 is my guess

 

[battfan888]

I dont think anybody here is trying to gloss over Saginaw at all. I said before the playoffs they scared me more than London.
If Guelph loses again tonight I would be highly concerned especially if its anything like Thursdays game.

However people are just saying that arent hitting the panic button yet after game 1.
Even with the amazing comeback I'm certainly not cocky enough to think they could do it again should this get to 3-0.

A Storm win tonight and they are in good shape.

I think you will see a better Guelph team tonight.

 

[TrueBlueStorm]

after 1 period
shots 20-7 for Saginaw
faceoffs 15-4 for Spirit

let's hope for a better second and third or its over.

 

[LR8]

Saginaw announcer on TV is bad. Color guy is terrible. Serious lack of insight.

 

[LR8]

Suspend able offence

 

[blkhawk]

Lol this is really something
That should be a 5 game suspension
And these announcers are comedy gold

[bobber]

Radcliff takes a stupid selfish penalty with 2 minutes left. Could cost the game now. Too bad.
