Re: 2 Teams Leaving for the OJHL?

I'm shocked to about Caledonia. I personally think Caledonia wants to move back to the Midwest. I honestly don't think Brantford will make the jump. They're still a relatively new franchise and I think they did it to spite Cambridge as they stated in 2012 that they were applying for the 2013-14 sea...

Re: 2 Teams Leaving for the OJHL?

If this happens, wouldn't it mean that a Junior B franchise would become available in these 2 cities, IF someone wanted it? I realise that it's extremely unlikely due to ice times, advertising, etc., etc., but just wondering. Yeah but it won't happen. Brantford had a GMHL team that folded a quarter...

Re: Kitchener(1) vs Waterloo(6), 2nd Round Playoff Thread

Now the rest of Kitchener's home games are in the Rangers rink. So Kitchener will be playing on NHL size rink at home instead of Olympic size.

It will be a good series to watch/follow.

Re: Listowel in 0-2 hole

Is Waterloo going to sweep Listowel, or will the Cyclones be able to pull out a game tonight and force Game 5 on Friday? I was up in Listowel yesterday and they were leading Waterloo by 1 with 8 mins to go, Waterloo tied it to force OT then in OT, Waterloo calls a time out less than a minute into O...

Re: Listowel in 0-2 hole

Waterloo has kept Huber off the board. Gazzola has been matched hard against him and it seems to be working in Loo's favor. I was away in Ottawa this weekend, so I missed out on the games, but I'm looking forward to possibly going up to Listowel tomorrow. In my defense, I saw Mike Hoffman play, so ...

Re: Kitchener hangs on for game 1 win

Will Rawski made 51 saves that game. He's pretty good in my opinion and when I saw the scores from the first 2 games, I know he would be able to get them a win (despite not playing Game 1)

Re: #2 London vs #7 Strathroy playoff thread

I watched a bit of it on TV, it was 1-1 when I started watching it and turned it after 3-1. Oddly enough, I turned the TV to the Chicago-Detriot game and like a minute after watching, they started talking about the one ref, Kendrick Nicholson, who played for the Cullies and wore Eddie Olczyk number!

Until they bring the Cup back to the Mid-West, they'll be known as the West and Golden Horseshoe's little sisters. :P :lol: Last season, every Midwest Conference won at the showcase tournament. To refer to the Midwest as the "little sister" is a huge understatement, considering St. Mary's...

I visited that arena once, it's really nice and large (2000 seats + 500 standing) and I'm sure they can expand the arena if ever there's a possibly of an OHL team.

The intent to injure the lineman wasn't there, maybe that's why it's a short suspension.
