Hoping Hinds/Anderson are good to go by friday, they are so important to our team.
Belanger has actually eliminated the Remparts the last 2 years so thats a cool fact, lets see if he can make 3 years in a row.
I suspect a high scoring affair, neither Fucale or Booth particularly scare me.
Schedule should be released later today.

Hard to match up with their depth but we come close up front.
If we can get some bounces and fill the net for a game next weekend and come home 1-1 the atmosphere for a game 3 should be big.
That's a long ways away of course, but if we can get the 20's healthy and as emerz mentioned get some poor goaltending from the other side we can definitely make this a series.

I'm predictive 4 and done once again this year. Hopefully not as embarrassing as last year against Gatineau. I honestly feel that with Dumont behind the bench we don't stand a chance in a 7 game series. I hope that I can be proven wrong and if I am I will gladly admit it with a big smile on my face as I go to watch the second round, but I feel that we're done quick again this year.

I agree but I also think that is how Quebec gets eliminated in Round 2. Fucale is the most overrated goalie in the whole CHL.

Who is injured for the Eagles? Leblanc out until next season. Hinds + Andersen expected to return.

Win or lose, chances are the games will be pretty exciting. Both teams are a bit Jekyll and Hyde, some games could be completely different from one another depending on which Eagles team and which Remparts team shows up.
Both teams have question marks in net.. an implosion in Quebec's crease could make the series interesting. An implosion in CB's... and the series is over quickly. On one hand, it's hard to imagine a guy with Fucale's pedigree going out in the first round. On another hand, maybe he's kind of bored after accomplishing so much in such a long junior career... and after the crazy high of the WJC's. Which Fucale shows up will be a big storyline.
One thing that I think will be for sure. The series will be high-scoring. Bet we'll see a 6-5 game or two.
While you could argue that we would have had a better chance against Shawinigan (not sure whether or not that's correct), I think these games have a much better chance of producing drama.
One thing is for absolute sure: the fans of this team deserve more than another exit after only two home playoff games. The last year C200 has hosted more than two postseason games = 2009. Far too long ago.

I hope that I can be proven wrong and if I am I will gladly admit it with a big smile on my face as I go to watch the second round, but I feel that we're done quick again this year. My PREDICTION 5 OR 7 GAME SERIES, This depends on which goalie he decides to play ? Yes I am a Sully fan because he has lived the underdog this year and ALSO has proven imo that he could do better in goals against than the two goalies who were predicted to be much better than he was. However, that has not been the case and to be fair to Bélanger he has not played for several games and has had a difficult game against the bottom team in the Q ( not his fault due to not playing due to injury) but we will not win if we let two or three goals against every game, Quebec is too strong and imo the games will not have high goal games. Friday will tell and we need to come out of Quebec with at least one win. Our team can win by playing the way they can hoping they are all in that mental attitude!! Its fair to say that playoffs are a different game some teams just play better than they did all year and some like the Leafs fold sorry for picking on the Leafs but it fits. GO EAGLES GO YOU CAN WIN

Tickets went on sale today to the general public for games 3 and 4 here next Tuesday and Thursday.
Hope there's a big walk up crowd because right now there's really not a lot of tickets sold for either game.

It's pretty sad that the fans here won't support the team unless they've proven they are a winner. I've been there through the shitty years and the team right now has a huge upside. Maybe after next year the fans will start to show up again, although those fans are only wagon jumpers.

If the community is willing to jam the BAYplex out Glace Bay (last night) for Jr.B than there's no reason C200 shouldn't be filled for some playoff hockey.
