MacDonald starting in goal for the Bulldogs. Flames PP. Be good to watch Poirier.

[thymebalm]

I'm watching. Anyone else?

[Vulcan]

Poirier sets up Reinhart. No luck.

[thymebalm]

So many shots wide. Lost the zone on drives wide several times already.

[sureLoss]

Poirier looks good

I was thinking the same thing. Poised with the puck.

Thessien also looking good so far.

[sureLoss]

Thiessen bailing out Adirondack early

[thymebalm]

Ugly powerplay for GF. 5-4 shots for Hamilton.

[sureLoss]

1-0 Hamilton
3:12 left in the period

[thymebalm]

Turnover leads to a Bulldog's goal. 0-1.

[thymebalm]

First period is over.

Flames haven't looked that bad, they haven't looked great either. I'm liking what I see from Hanowski and Hathaway. Agostino and Reinhart doing alright as well.

edit: And Poirier^

[thymebalm]

So, we've seen a few games, what are your guys' thoughts on this team and how they play, where they are strong and not so strong?

[Vulcan]

It seems like Wotherspoon and Potter play half the game. When they're not out we get in trouble.

[PeteMoss]

Oh god .. Nathan Moon. An ultra lazy waste of talent back in junior...

[sureLoss]

Wolf from Poirier

1-1!!!!!!

13:05 left in the third period

Ramage gets the 2nd assist

Wolf going to the box for elbowing. PK for Addy

11:46 left in the game

[Vulcan]

What I've seen of Wolf he seems to have some offensive talent.

Nice block by Knight.
