Hey it’s I appreciate the feedback and hope you enjoyed the read. I personally think this was one of if not the greatest comeback (little bias cause I’m close with some of the players).
But I have two reasons why:
1. ITS THE LONDON KNIGHTS. London has always been a prestigious team and has dominated the OHL for over 3 decades. There always good and always compete for the title with elite team after elite team. The fact Guelph went down 3-0 to a seemingly unstoppable Knights team was tough. They had no momentum and it looked like London was going for an easy sweep. But the Storm came back and honestly if there is two guys I want rallying my team back it’s Durzi and Suzuki. Not only have these two played in game 7’s before and played amazing with there backs against the wall. They can motivate anyone either verbally or with action. If there is one single guy to motivate me to comeback in a series it’s Sean Durzi. I’ve known him since we were kids and this guy just seems to always find a way to win and compete. Such a hard worker. Beside that, it was a collective team effort and Popovich stood on his head for the the last 4 games of that series.
2. THEY HAD 0 MOMENTUM. The fact that these guys snuck away with a win in game 4. They were still down 3-1 against LONDON. Who’s power play is one of the best in the OHL probably ever. Along with that they had 2 or 3 borderline NHL players. Formenton and Bouchard played in the NHL this year (although it was short they still did). They had the pro experience that we dream to experience. Those two along with there whole team were shutdown in there own zone and can score at any time. If they had a chance it seemed like they were gonna score. Popovich and the storm defence were amazing in those last 4 games. Also Gordeev and Phillips played very well in there own zone. They shut it down and broke the puck out very well. I was surprised with Gordeev and loved his play. He’s so quick for a 6”7 guy and his long defensive stick is very helpful.
Overall, I do love discussions and I like some of the points everyone made. There were some good ones and Windsor’s comeback does stick out but they were destined to win IMO. That team was stacked and still had many chances in those first 3 games. Those two points along with many others make me believe that the Guelph Storm coming back from 3-0 and not 2-0 is the greatest. Down 2-0 is never bad tbh. U lose two games on the road and u come back home. You’re never out of it untill u lose at home. The 2-0 agreement (except in the men cup) is basically invalid to me. Along with that how about Guelph forcing game 7 tn in Saginaw. I’m telling you there something about this guelph team and they don’t have one bad player on this team.
Thanks again
