EXPECTATIONS IN THE HORSESHOE

Jan 10th is coming soon and I'm sure we all expect to see our favorite teams make some meaningful additions. Here's my forecast, Caledonia will try and update defense.No need to add to their forward lines or goaltending. They are set there. St.Catharines will try and add dept to their 3rd and fourth...

Re: Caledonia going for four

Although I do find Cali vairs comments mostly informative and interesting I have to agree 100% with HockeyTalk21. It just isn't right to chirp your own players on a public forum. Do it within your own group if you must.

Re: Corvairs and Canucks

Caledonia Fan, Sounds like you and I were the only ones at the game. Neither team did what was expected. Maybe next time both teams will meet expectations. None the less, still 2 good hockey teams and nobody thrown under the bus. LOL.

Corvairs and Canucks

Boring game. Poor defense and weak goaltending. More giveaways then a Black Friday at a U S Walmart store. Was expecting a hard fought skilled game from both teams but that never happened. Mallette had a good game for the Corvairs and McCabe had most of the Corvairs acting like alter boys every time...

Re: Caledonia VS St Catharines

Another great game in Caledonia tonight with the Falcons. Both teams and both goalies were outstanding. It's just too bad the officiating wasn't up to the same standards these two teams displayed. Corvairs win 2_1 in overtime.

Re: St.Catharines vs Niagara Falls

Saw him play Tuesday night in St.Catharines. By far the best d'man on either team. Plays well in his own end and is the quarterback on their power play. Great skater,controls the play when he's on the ice. Should prove to be an excellent pick up by the Falls.

Re: Welland at Caledonia

You are right, these kids need to get themselves under control. However the person who needs to get under control the most is their coach. He's been around and has played at the top level and at most times is the most out of control person on the bench. :oops:
