North Bay Battalion 2023-24 Season Thread (Part One)

[yacky]

As a NB fan if you take a step back and look at it’s actually sorta funny. Sports!

I like it. Adds fuel to fire lol

 

[Samee987]

Do we have a BUG or a EBUG for tomorrow's game?

 

[apfsds]

Easton Rye is still there billeting

 

[JRHockeyBUZZZ]

No Divincentiis at practice according to source. Easton Rye & Mike McIvor two goalies on the ice for the Troops. Looks as though day-day is no longer the case for the injury to Divincentiis. At least in worst case North Bay has someone with OHL experince backing-up.

"It is a shame that they would rather see their arena empty than sell to North Bay residents."

LOL when was the last time this guy has been to Sudbury during the playoffs?

That was worth a

Well to be honest there hasn’t been much opportunity for him to go over the last 10 years

 

[Lycanthrope]

Seemed like an incredibly harmless sequence to result in a career threatening injury, willing to be its hip related?

Hey Spezz Where do you suggest parking so you don’t have to be in that mess of a parking lot and how early would I have to get there? Thanks man. Oh and what kind of beer do they sell

Come on, they play each other four times in the barn every year.

Well, your back up, looked great, but even as a rival fan, I really hope Dom can recover….Just maybe not in time for this series…

The OP asked the last time he was at a playoff game in Sudbury. Sorry, passive dig. lol

For parking I use the lot behind the grocery store/Shoppers on Cassells and walk through the park and across the Gardens parking lot. If you’re going home after it’s a quick left on to Cassells to HWY 17.

Not sure great is the word. Will suck to lose because of injuries cause it wouldn’t be due to competition

Agree. Still think the Wolves are in for a hell of a battle.

Thanks can I have the name of the grocery store? Is it the one on the right after turning on Cassells? Thanks.

If North bay can push the series to 6 and get Arnsby back and maybe Romani at some point they’ve got a chance. It’s not like Sudbury’s goaltending has been anything special this season. Wouldn’t count North bay out at all

end of period, walk to beer store and walk back. You can arrive with a few mins to spare to get to your seat. That’s what somebody told me anyways.

Reminds me of the old days in Sudbury where'd you head over to the Townhouse or May's Tavern. during intermission.

Aha…great minds think alike trust me, already considering it Might be one reason to park in the lot…closer.
At least you don’t have that stupid rule about not being able to leave the arena. What kind of beer do they sell though when I buy one and fleeced?

Y’a remember buying street meat there and who could forget the peelers upstairs..buddy of mine lived close and was quite the regular

Back in the day when bartenders were fast as lighting. They were always ready for us. Like old Waylon Jennings says in one of his songs: “ I dont like the changes cause I’ve seen it all at it’s best” Amen and that sentiment extends beyond hockey.

Seems the parking question has been answered! Hope our friendship continues after the unavoidable playoff disagreements

Was thinking the same but remember no friends on the ice

What do you think our 1st round pick will be. Fwd or dman?

Tough call. They will have a need for both really. Biggest need imo will be a D who can drive offence, our roster looks pretty bleak in that department. If that player isn’t available they go with best forward available. Total guess btw.
