Sudbury Wolves 2019-20 Season Thread (Part 5)

[Uncle]

Agreed. Excellent showing. Emergency goalies appear to be the trend this weekend.

Seems like it’s something to rally around, provides an extra jump and more reason to play defensively sound. It’s just too bad you can’t bottle the recipe and use all year long.

 

[hockeynorth]

way to go Bowen!

 

[Wisdom]

I missed the game both by not being there and missed it online, what happened with Pekar to start fighting?

I believe he got tangled up with Bahl and led to a fight, I think he got ejected not having jersey tied down.

Andy pretty quiet after the win, typical. I'm glad you acknowledge yourself as one of the big mouths.

Not sure who Andy is, probably your 3rd alias Cubby. Either way great team effort today but just like it hasn’t been one terrible d/goalie effort all year but rather several, one win doesn’t solve all

 

[Wolfman Jack]

All the big mouth posters quiet after a Big win, pretty vocal last game.

Wow. Relax this organization is still in turmoil. Who’s call to bring up Bowen? Papineau or Zulich? One thing is for sure it should have been done long ago to give these players some lift. You make a few early saves and then a huge glove one in the second and the Wolves score soon after. Never had that all season. Not that Bowen will do that every game but he was sound and challenged shooters and was confident. For management to not try something else only made things worse as the season wore on. Sometimes you need to suck up your pride. But to call posters big mouths!!! It’s been a mess all year. I don’t run away after a win and hop back on the wagon. Just wow!

Good for him. Pretty ballsy to take on someone listed as 6 ft 7 240 lbs. Pekar certainly isn't a Pilon.

I agree I said it should have been addressed during course of season, I seen enough of this goalie tandem. However, you came at me first last game for no reason, and I saw Papineau partying up in box today. lol.

agree about the goalie situation, I have always said to address the goalie situation, but guys like you who recently did the play by play on board when the Wolves were losing and looked stupid when they came back to win. Then you got the other F head do the same against the Saginaw game, what purpose are you guys trying to do? I have more respect for you guys if you also comment when the team wins not just when they lose.

He's feisty guy, I like his game skilled, hard on pucks, works hard every shift.

 

[dirty12]

The take away is a positive one. A greatly needed win and a blow out loss for the colts. But settle down cub, it was one deserved huge win over a clearly tired maybe slumping team. No need for personal attacks, unless it aimed at the GM for not taking advantage of the wolves rare standing at the deadline

I get personal attack all the time, but I can handle it, but I can dish it out with the best of them. It is a big win, I agree we caught Ottawa at good time but at the same time all in all good effort by the team. I have always said to address the goalie situation and that is on Papineau, for sticking for them so long. Today's game shows that if we have some kind of decent goaltending the troops can rally in front of him. I hope we give Bowman some more games and he is available for the playoffs.

 

[Coywolf]

Exciting game today. Felt like an afternoon playoff game with the above zero temps outside. I've been able to get to 6 or 7 games this season. This may be the first game that there wasn't a goalie change. Bowen looked confident. Any chance he could play in the playoffs, or did he have to sign before Feb 10?

 

[WolvesFan]

I agree he looks good in the stands , no bandages, there has to be more to it. Scouts would like to see him against the better teams and that looks like it won't happen. Wonder what effect this will have regarding his rating ?

Part of me thinks that is part of the idea behind this...

 

[Grey Wolf]

That is the question. Is Bowen available to play for us in the playoffs?

 

[Grey Wolf]

I see the wolves have put him into the online roster on the OHL site

 

[billoink]

I like what I see from Bowen, very quick, tracks pucks well. I hope I didn't give him the kiss of death, happy for the kid, I hope he gets run of games.

No you did not other than writing him off as a courtesy pic when he was drafted only because he was Bowens boy. We all make mistakes. Just thought I would remind you through.

Yes, I did admit to that, when he called up for games with the Wolves a few years back, I said I was impressed and wrong. You keep harping on Byfield, about the NHL draft with your induendos, not much difference.

Here answers the question if Bowman can play in playoffs:

I have stated all along I believe Quinton will go second overall I am not convinced he is ready for the jump to the NHL next season just to clear that up. When do you think his agent will give the green light for him to return to the line up?

 

[Voice from the North]

All the big mouth posters quiet after a Big win, pretty vocal last game.

Call it as it is, good and bad. Today the whole team played well and battled in all zones, no passengers today unlike most other games this year.

not you Voice from the North, you do. My message were to a couple of guys trying to single me out during the Saginaw game. I really believe if you have a solid goalie, team plays totally different. If you got goalies you're not confidence in, it changes the whole mojo of the team. This was a major flaw this season not addressed, especially during the course of season, continuously getting the sub par goaltending.

 

[djscooter]

Here answers the question if Bowman can play in playoffs:

Well that's unfortunate. They need to figure it out with Purboo/Weeks then. Rayside playoffs start early march and they're expected to go deep.

yes should of had the insurance policy, Wolves had released him to go play in "Q". came back to Rayside. I wonder if Lemaire is in play? I would think so.

the whole team played well and battled in all zones is a more reasonable take than the wolves played better because they had the confidence of playing in front of a tier 2 goalie.
