SSM Greyhounds 2023 - 2024 Season Thread (Part 3)

[Jay R]

Guelph will be next man up mentality and we can't take them lightly going into their barn.

This is when the hounds need to pounce on them and not let them breath

No Travis Hayes tonight

 

[HockeyPops]

Is he banged up or healthy scratch?

Yeah don't understand the extra d-man unless Travis is hurt

 

[Houndzfan20]

I may have to watch with no sound. These Guelph play by play are atrocious. Any annoying voices lol.

Scratches

Out of the lineup tonight for the Greyhounds are Tate Vader, Jack Beck (injury), and Travis Hayes (injury)

 

[DWI Dale]

Guelph homer announcers already getting on my nerves. Alternate reality level stuff.

Hounds not very good so far imo. They've had some chances in transition but no sustained pressure, no traffic, and Gillespie isn't giving up any rebounds. Down 2-0 to an anemic Guelph roster. Wake TF up!

 

[DWI Dale]

time to pull schenkel. too bad we can't pull skaters. very soft game against a depleted roster.

 

[DWI Dale]

what a dumbass move by Carlisle. followed by an equally dumb move by gillespie.

 

[DWI Dale]

wow! hounds didn't deserve that one but I'll take it. lol

Guelph fans rightfully salty after that penalty at the end of regulation. That was a terrible call at a crucial moment.

"The worst penalty I have ever seen"

He actually said that about the head check at the end of the third. I agree that it probably shouldn't be called at that juncture, but to say that about a 50/50 call is a bit too much hyperbole.

So does Miller get the next start? I think you have to roll with him after a putrid .840 SV% in the first 3 games.

 

[HockeyPops]

Schenkel 100% gets the start. Nice to have Miller rolling though waiting in the wings.

I respect your opinion, but what are you basing that opinion on? I need something better than 'he's our starter'.

Is it his poor regular season performance, his poor postseason performance, or his lack of postseason experience?

As a Ranger fan, I must point out the hypocrisy in your "50/50" call. That's 98/2 not a penalty.

agreed. it's not even a discussion worth starting.

He's our starter.

I'm sure in the postgame you won't hear Dean place any blame on Schenkel. The goalie change was to kick start the skaters. Brilliant move as it turns out.

My money is on Schenkel starting game 4.

 

[HF92]

You gotta go with Charlie in game 4. Let the man cap the series off.

Millers confidence is out the roof though..great to have in the back pocket

I guess I should rephrase the question. What has he done to show that he deserves to be the starter? He's never performed well in a Greyhounds uniform, even with an excellent defense this season.

We can all assign different numbers to it, but I did say it wasn't the right call in that situation.

That being said, I get where the refs are coming from. You see contact to the head and the helmet flies off, it probably looks pretty bad on the ice.

The worst call of the game was the high stick on Virgilio, like 10 seconds after it happened due to embellishment from the Guelph player. That led to the Paquette goal. Overall though, the Hounds got away with some stuff in the third and the officiating favoured us a bit.

Weird. Thought the game winner was scored on the ensuing power play.

Ya - it was. Chronic issue with seeing things differently.
