Niagara IceDogs 2020 Offseason Thread

[Drop the Puck]

Daniel Murphy now an Icedog probably the end of the line for Mr.McLean.

Or, perhaps uncertainties re: Tucker
JB head scratcher for sure. Corner the market on OA tenders tactic?

 

[three dog night]

Murphy probably a better mentor than Maclean .

Good to see Tucker Tynan back on the ice was a scary thing to see last season when he got hurt. I maybe an Attack fan but no one liked seeing Tucker get injured like he did last season great to see him on the ice, looking forward to the Attack and Ice Dogs re-tangle their rivalry in 2020/21.

Where did AJ Cook play in your lineup last season? What kind of game does he play?

Web have a trade Niagara IceDogs Acquire Hinz from Peterborough – Niagara IceDogs

 

[HockeyPops]

Lol. Well here is an article that talks about 5 OAs fighting for spots at training camp. Better make that 6.

Sault’s Theriault likes his chances

 

[the dog]

I don't see him around come camp

I like the addition of an overager but why do the Burke's like small people!

Whatever is left in the fridge on this one.

It’s your head scout who likes’em little.

As if the goaltending situation in Niagara wasn't complicated enough, now Josh Rosenzweig's team in the GOJHL folds for the year. Does this change the Ice Dog's plans at all?

Wow. That is so good to see. Watching the game that night.... well let's just say I'm happy to see him able to get back on skates.

Good for him.

Yeah Niagara released a thing on it yesterday

 

[Hockey Stick]

Kind of surprised no team took a flyer on Peterborough's old buddy Cam Butler. I thought I would've heard his name called after how well he played after the trade. Did he fall off a bit towards the end before the shutdown?

He only had 6 goals in 27 games for Niagara and was a -40

His points per game and his shots per game went down after the trade from PBO to NIA, despite the increase in ice time and powerplay time

That would do the trick then. I remember checking on how he was doing for a few games after the trade and he seemed to be putting up points every time I checked

He got off to a really hot start in NIA I believe but then really cooled off

Nothing “hot” about his performance that I saw in any of his games at the Meridian Centre.
No grit, no grind, soft out side player.
Then again, nothing really stood out about anything on that ice after January.
Not a single 2018 kid got drafted this year if I see it correctly. Including Moore.

I just mean points wise. Didn’t he put up a few right away when he got there?

Negative GhostRider


Jan 9 zero points in a 7-1 loss to the Bulldogs
Jan 10 1 Apple in a 5-2 loss to the Rags
Jan 11 zero points in a 4-2 loss to the Otters

I believe they lost like 15 in a row right after the deadline.
Dark times in Niagara last three months.
COVID was kind to the team. Will continue to be kind in a no hit league.

He had top minutes, I believe that week he was the shooter on the PP.
