Agree with you another year they should be better but I have seen very little growth in more than half our 18 year olds form 17 to 18 and this playoffs shows that So what makes us think they will be oh so much better at 19 SDA hinz jpj macnamara gallant have not improved at all from last season or even start of season till if anything they played the same and regressed at times. Am I wrong saying that? I just think we need to bring in something serious to go from mediocre team to a top seed. We have pieces up from and back end with goalies so add some sure fire talent and then yes I think we can be a top team but do not think with this group as is we will be a sure thing

I don't know how it was to watch in person, but that was an exciting game to listen to on the radio! Chisholm, Paquette, Timelick, and of course Jones, all of the boys who are supposed to be the veteran leaders, had big games for the boys. I forgot about that awesome feeling you get when your team wins a playoff game. I'm looking forward to Thursday night! Go Petes Go

The Petes had a jump in their skates tonight and were positioning themselves much better on coverage. Jones was solid. But in the end it was skating that won the game. I liked Cermak and Spearing tonight and of course Paquette. Fraser showed up. Let's see if we can steal another Thursday.
That was a good response. Every player was finishing their checks. Robertson. SDA, Denault. Top to bottom, everyone. We put pressure on the Generals defense and they coughed up a lot of pucks and lost a lot of board battles.
I said before the regular season ended that this was a bad match for Oshawa because if they want to finish off Peterborough it's going to cost a physical toll and high emotions where beating the Steelheads would have been a cleaner slate for them heading into round two. We're 3 games in and you can already see the physicality of the series and how Oshawa, despite being older and bigger aren't matching that intensity right now. In the first two periods they spent more time arguing with the refs after every hit than they did focusing on controlling the puck. It reminded me of how we un-wind the 67's and get their skill players off their game and frustrated.
Salinitri and Fraser had an exchange in the 2nd period and after that, Salinitri wouldn't go into a corner when Fraser was on the ice knowing he was going to get mobbed.
Gotta give Keyser props for the biggest save I've probably ever seen. Not sure if it was just my angle I was seeing it from, but man he robbed Kirk of a no-doubter.

Great game tonight. Disciplined, yet aggressive. I think my favourite part was that when they had a late lead they didn't go into the full sit back and do nothing trap that has bit them in the rear so many times this season. They stayed aggressive and it paid off. Excellent crowd and a wonderful reminder of what playoff hockey can be.
As mentioned by other posters, the Keyser save was unbelievable.

Anyone have a clip of that save I was listening in at work tonight. Great game by the boys. Let go Thursday put up back on there heals for Saturday in Oshawa

That was no steal, well earned. Petes looked like a different team, I think mindset has a lot to do with it. Looking forward to watching more of the series. Excellent job by the TV crew as well.
Please people refrain from bashing our players? There all excellent hockey players each and every one of them! Great come back win Tuesday, proud of the effort. GO PETES GO

That’s great Zebra I think for some reason their team just decided to play a full game with some physicality for once and it paid off and fans appreciated the effort I think even if they had lost that game fans would have appreciated that effort
They played hard. Our rink is smaller only by 10ft on paper but looks way smaller then that. Petes played a physical desiplined game and in a tighter rink seemed to make a big difference. Watching warm ups it looked like there was only room for one Max two sets of players passing in the neutral zone. At tribute it looked like you could put 4. Hope the boys can play the same way Thursday and really make a series of this. With that said. Let’s back the rink Saturday night and shut the gens fans up! It’s not a series till you lose at home! GO PETES GO!

Good for you man. Nothing like the jump. It’s not something you even do consciously
Absolutely euphoric (by the way I just found out the word Euphoria is from the Greek for having a state of health) Makes sense to me man. Light it up....and then watch the game. Hope it’s a another win tomorrow.

I've probably missed this somewhere but why does Hutton still wear a full cage?
My guess is he’s just not comfortable without it yet? Because he is old enough to not have to wear it.
Well that was a good effort and an entertaining game. Salinitri is just deadly with the puck on his stick, not sure why the Flyers didn't give him an ELC.
Probably deserved the 'W' tonight and had all the opportunity to take it, but couldn't. A bounce or two might have turned the tides but we got a bounce or two in Game 3 so you can't rely on that. We had two long 5-on-3's and only put up one goal. Our PK has looked really good, it's a shame that we're down 3-1 cause the series is just getting really interesting.
I like Noel a lot as a player, and I like that he never dives even though he's always dragging a defender or two with him on his back when he rushes, but I don't think I've ever seen a two minute penalty for kneeing. It's usually a game misconduct and from my vantage point I don't see how it wasn't on Noel. Kneeing that caused an injury, but only two minutes.
All in all if that's all we see at the PMC this year we were treated to 2 good games that the series openers in Oshawa made me think we wouldn't get. Petes battled hard, controlled the physical play, controlled the board battles, and put on a hell of a show. Good experience for everyone heading into next season.
