Re: Stanley Cup Finals

I watched parts of it inbetween checking the score of last night's JR B lacrosse game in Windsor now that the league uses PS. Glad to see the Pens get the win, still hoping they can take the cup but those pesky Red Wings have a habit of playing well. {shrugs} Didn't see the intermission so didn't kn...

Re: not about hockey at all

Hello, I am an occassional reader of this forum for a time now, and have never really felt like posting until now. This topic of Victoria Stafford hits very close to home for me. My wife was the classroom teacher of Victoria, and she has been going through a tough time since this occurred. She was ...

Memorial Cup

Caught part of a couple of games Windsor played and most of the final for the cup.
Congrats to them. Interesting to see jersey #18 with them for the team photo - in honour of former Spits captain Mickey Renaud.

Re: Owen sound drops out for year

One article about it is at http://www.owensoundsuntimes.com/Articl ... ?e=1580806
Doesn't sound too good for them.
Without them that would make the Midwest a conference of just 8 teams just like the GH.

Bluewater Sharks major midget hockey tournament

was held in Sarnia this past weekend. Of note were the two teams who had players that saw each other in the GOJHL - players from the Sarnia Legionnaires and the Strathroy Rockets.

Re: Sutherland Cup

Game 4 is looking interesting. SC got the early lead and then Brantford scores 4 in the second and 1 early in the third to lead 5-1 with the period half over. I'm guessing the Brantford fans are a group of happy campers at this point with such a lead. A comeback by SC could happen I suppose - strang...

Re: Sutherland Cup

It's 9:40 pm on Tuesday and the teams are going to OT. Creek jumped out to a 3-0 lead after 20 minutes, then surrendered three goals in the second. Eagles gave up a late goal to SC who pulled their goalie for the extra attacker. Looks like the referees are allowing the players to play, very few pena...

That sounds like a long list of excuses, the bottom line is we had a chance to move on by winning and couldn't get it done. Blaming others for that is kind of pointless as we wouldn't have been in a position to need help if we would have just won the game ourselves. MG, my list wasn't excuses or bl...

Noticing that this series ends on a Monday. Isn't that a bit late? Does anyone know the supposed "cut-off" date for when this round is supposed to finish up?
Seem to recall having a discussion last season about how one league (now conference) finished late.
