Re: Kitchener(1) vs Waterloo(6), 2nd Round Playoff Thread
Kitchener usually plays at Kinsmen in round 1 and then switches to the Aud for round 2 and it seems to be where they always go down. The 2nd Round Aud curse....RocketGirl wrote:Yeah I found the game rather boring. I was told that neither team likes playing in the Aud, so that could be why.

Re: Kitchener(1) vs Waterloo(6), 2nd Round Playoff Thread
Yes he is. It was Mitchell Datz. And he got hit twice in yesterday's game. First time was in the 1st and I don't think there was a call on it, but I could be wrong about that. First hit was Subban, who took a couple strides despite puck being nowhere close. They called goalie interference, but he s...

Re: 2 Teams Leaving for the OJHL?
Good for Frank! I hope Niagara Falls is accepted by the OJHL. I'd love to have a reason to support that league! If they get in, a lot of players will bail on Golden Horseshoe teams for Niagara Falls, that's a given. Same with Brantford, if they get in younger players will leave Mid-West and even We...

Re: 2 Teams Leaving for the OJHL?
I'm still shocked Caledonia wasn't in on this - one of the big deterrents for some Jr. B teams was obviously increased budgets, but Caledonia (once it three-peats) would be in a perfect spot to make the jump. Same with Cambridge, they've been at the forefront of every single push for the league to b...

Re: Kitchener(1) vs Waterloo(6), 2nd Round Playoff Thread
Waterloo loses it's best defenseman, Lane, for 2 games to suspension and their best forward, Schnarr, only played 2 or 3 shifts in the third from my eyes, after limping off the ice at end of 2nd. Might be huge for this series right there.

Bingo. ILuvHackey nailed it. I hope the league is listening to this kind of logic when the try to sort out the 20yrold rules tomorrow. Cap the number of CHL vets who can play, especially the 20yrold variety, or ban them all together. Kyle Brothers is one example of 20 year olds still developing. I ...

Re: Limit 20 years old
With the NHL talking about waiting to draft kids when they're 19, I see no reason why a lot of these 20 year olds aren't still developing. I think this league is playing too many(head) games. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Just my opinion. :) And no doubt they can build great team's with younger ...

Re: The Same Old Story In Pelham
In his defense, what they did for Sorrentino last year was huge for him.
However, any time I get a chance to talk to coaches or GMs in the Midwest they all say the same thing about Pelham and Tim: "what a joke."

Re: Limit 20 years old
couldn't their be another part to the rule something like the jr.c's overage rule. If a player who is 19 was with your team in December then they would be eligible to return for their 20 year old season. Therefore they don't count towards the 3 or 4 that you are allowed to have for the first season...

Will both team's lose the player who was assessed the major to suspension? It would be a big blow to both teams, but more so to Waterloo. Huh?

I have issue with any team that does this. If you feel the need to go after me for what I said, then say it in the thread rather than start a new one. It's weak. The system IS flawed. The fact that Jr. A can have more 16 year olds than B and C makes no sense to me. More young players should be playi...

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) In my opinion, Rawski is why Brantford made the playoffs. Period. Every time I saw them play Loo or the Bridge...
