  1. @camcharron Man, you weren't kidding
  2. "I think that second period killed us" - Sea Dogs Tomas Jurco. Sounds about right.
  3. Centre Bionest is quite loud considering there's just 4,763 people in here
  4. @DaveMcGimpsey That's it. Pickets. Love this game.
  5. Another Shawinigan wrister from point - this time by Morgan Ellis - gets tipped home by Yannick Veilleux at 13:14 of third. Cats up 5-4
  6. Sea Dogs tie it on Red Wings prospect Tomas Jurco's second of the game - and second of the tournament 0 at 9:16 of the third.
  7. @DaveMcGimpsey A rickets game I'm covering
  8. Sea Dogs somehow got two shots on goal in the second intermission, so they were outshot 20-8 in second, not 20-6.
  9. @RickyRaz14 They're not trading Huberdeau
  10. Despite being outshot 20-6 in second by Cats, Sea Dogs enter third down only 4-3. Minor miracle.
  11. Huberdeau, quiet all night, bounces one in from his own blue line to bring Sea Dogs back within one. Now 4-3 Cats late in second
  12. @habsloyalist Understood. Heard good things from defence last year on value of having Ladouceur behind bench because he played the position
  13. And with seven seconds left in PP Phillips sent off for hi-stick. Cats outshot Sea Dogs 2-0 on that Saint John PP, now up 16-3 in second
  14. @habsloyalist Ideally yes, and Robinson would be perfect. But until a head coach is hired talking about assistants is somewhat pointless
  15. @habsloyalist That's what Gill was for
  16. Make that 14-3 Shawinigan in shots this period and 2-0 in goals as Chaput quickly converts to give Cats 4-2 lead
  17. Tesnik to the box for Sea Dogs. Cats are outshooting Sea Dogs 13-3 in this period midway through second with PP coming up
  18. @habsloyalist A certain former coach tried everything to get Subban to learn that. Then he got fired.
  19. @camcharron Can't wait.
  20. 4,000+ fans very loud at Centre Bionest after Cats take lead on Poudrier goal to go up 3-2 on Sea Dogs.
