Re: Off season news/ Player movement

Two more vets returning Rockets continue to strengthen their roster! The Strathroy Rockets are very pleased to announce the signings of two returning forwards, Wes Kelly and Nick Griffin. Looking forward to having both back for another exciting season of Rockets hockey I'm finding it interesting th...

Re: SUTHERLAND CUP FINAL: Caledonia(1st, GHL) vs London(2nd, West) Predictions & Playoff Thread

I think Hughes was so good against other teams because he doesn't get shots from in close with bigger defence in front of him. Cali cycles the puck and breaks down the defence. Resulting in shots in close where they can pick apart a goalie. Gonna be a tough series for London defenders. I also think...

What a series this one has turned out to be! Realistically I think Lasalle wins out in this one but Sarnia has shown they are a team on the edge of going deep in the West. Flyers2011 said it best, if Sarnia can win GM 5....it could just be that first round upset we all knew was there somewhere.
