Owen Sound Attack 2019-20 Season Thread (Part 2)

[East Avenue Bully]

I think what's telling is where the goals were scored from.
3 perimeter shot goals, only 1 from the middle of the ice. Really, we're lucky we got 3 of those shots from way out past Ingham. In general, Kitchener did a great job neutralizing our speed and keeping the puck to the perimeter. That's the textbook way to play the Attack.

Rangers...
4 goals from high-percentage scoring areas, mostly from defensive breakdowns (certainly their first and third goals).

Good summary. I am just going add that if I had Lyle on my team, I wouldn't fault him/the team for blasting away from the perimeter, he has a hard, accurate shot. Just get some traffic in front and your PP would be more fruitful.

It's not a bad thing when Lyle blasts away from the point, not laying any fault there. I mentioned I would like to see more of him and Robertson on the blueline on the PP, for that reason (and also for more defensive responsibility). My observation is that the Attack could stand to benefit from finding ways to move the puck to the middle of the ice in the O zone and to attack the net more, as the Rangers were successful in doing.

Agreed about creating more traffic in front. I saw Lawrence (6'5") out there on one of those late PP's in the 3rd, looks like the team was trying to do just that...although they were unable to set up the PP and create pressure. One of our assistant coaches spoke to creating more traffic in front of the net back in January. An area for improvement for sure.

You've got an impressive team. All the best down the stretch and into the playoffs (unless we match up).

Team played a good road game tonight versus the Firebirds. Hopefully the boys continue that effort into tomorrow night's game versus Windsor.

no current info but Feb. 12th Sun Times interview with Hill indicated he hoped he would be back for playoffs but sounds doubtful.

 

[AttackRinkRat]

Looks like Chenard in net tonight for hometown crowd. Hope he isn't too rusty and keeps boys in the game. Go Attack!!

Nice win. Liked Pearson skate off celebration

 

[Millpond]

So happy for Nick Chenard, getting the win in his first hometown start.

Another great team victory.
All of a sudden, the Attack are glueing together a nice little streak.

Looking forward to Saturdays game.

Gawd it seems like forever since Marcus Phillip's wore an Attack jersey.

[KFawcett]

Well a nice little roadie for sure. Great to see Nick get the win in his Hometown. This team has me baffled when they work hard and play there game they are hard to beat but when they set the cruise control look out it is not pretty.Heres hoping we see the hard working team from here on out.

 

[AttackRinkRat]

You have to watch the whole clip.

Nice win. Liked Pearson skate off celebration

That was terrific! just an observation from this old fella but why do you think that kid is not played more? He can clearly find the back of the net

 

[AttackRinkRat]

Actually, Pearson has played 60 games and has been, at various times, on the 1st and 2nd lines. He is having a break out year with 28 goals & 24 assists (52 pts). I like him too, and he's a nice down-to-earth kid.

 

[OHL insideout]

Terrific results from 2 tough road games for the Attack!
Another big game tomorrow evening in a sold out Bayshore!
-GO ATTACK GO-

Thank you for the clarification. And that is wonderful to hear! seems like a good kid

 

[Pond Hockey]

Give Pearson an OA spot for next year already!

Anybody know what the conditional pick on the Flint deal actually ended up being? Probably like 3 2nd rounders now with the way he’s playing right?
