Re: Cambridge situation

I find it interesting as well. Mind you, I am biased to Machado's line of thinking, not his tactics. This whole situation reminds me of a monopoly. Honestly, the OHA has dropped the ball when it comes to reclassification and a primer league.

Re: Elmira Sugar Kings

I think it's funny that they are tied with Buffalo for the most amount of points. Elmira didn't have Reinhart at the beginning of the 2015/16 season either. I wonder if they will announce that they were the 2016 Sutherland Cup champions as the players jump on the ice every period. They did that afte...

Re: Sutherland Cup Finals; London vs Elmira

Elmira's up 2-0 in the 2nd period tonight. I think they're bring the Sutherland Cup back to the Mid-West, for the first time in several seasons. Elmira was up 2-0 on Listowel before losing in 6. London, in my perception is the better team and in the course of the long run, I believe will come on top.

Re: Sutherland Cup Semi Finals; Listowel vs London

Listowel has the arena advantage since Elmira and Waterloo has Olympic ice pads. Im not sure of the smaller rinks of the west, but I think London will have it harder adjusting to Listowel's ice compared to Listowel adjusting to London's

It seemed they cared more about changing the logo than the focusing on the team itself. I remember reading that Thorold had a fair amount of financial hardship due to the change.
