Seems like a solid pick by the wolves in U18, only a month from being in this years OHL draft.

Excuses!!! They had an entire week after the 1st rd. Enough time to get rest and some solid fluids. They have not had the jump that I expected. Some players want to play and some are not thinking the game properly! Making huge mistakes defensively and I know we are young back there and playing without two vets. But it’s pathetic how they are just standing around and allowing Ottawa to sneak in behind them. Certain forwards are playing soft and the Pilons are not being the wrecking balls they need to be to slow down the game. I don’t expect them to win but I expected a much better effort. Coaches included.All of the players are playing "Hurt"...
Multiple key players for the Wolves are playing through injury at the moment right now though.
Big difference.
With that said I appreciate the effort that all of these young players are putting in right now...Fact is they are outmatched by a much Deeper team but still have not showed any quit whatsoever, IMO
Just curious. What is your hockey background? If there are guys that are injured then you won't get 100% If your backend is young playing against nhl signed players, then what do you expect to happen? Game 2 was a disapointment but the other two games we were in them but just not good enough to beat them. If people wanted a deep play off run then major trades needed to happen. We just tweeked things at the deadline. Who do you think is not trying. I see alot of effort but alot of mistakes. Ottawa capitalizes on those mistakes. I think to say guys arent trying is a little harsh. Who stands out positive and negative in this this series?Excuses!!! They had an entire week after the 1st rd.

Good idea...how about “Thank you Wolves”. Ukko may be the MVP but this has been a team effort from the coaches and management out.We gotta get a "Thank you Ukko" chant going for sure
It’s ridiculous to suggest the team and coaches haven’t been giving it their best. Missing two regular defenceman and our best forward is sixteen.Although I am disappointed with this round, I think we need to recognize the speed and pace of play Ottawa is playing at. In my view, it is at another level. At our best, we keep up at times, but not enough to take a team like that. I am very impressed with Ottawa as I wasn't noticing which line of theirs was on the ice - as they are so deep & balanced. Exciting team to watch. I don't think that our team hasn't showed up, they are just not at that level. I am proud of our results this year, and hope we win one tonight for all concerned. Go Wolves Go!
We hope so Three Dog.Salvage a win.
We hope so Three Dog.
Nah it’s UkkoGood idea...how about “Thank you Wolves”. Ukko may be the MVP but this has been a team effort from the coaches and management out.
