With that in mind what does everyone think ? Personally I see us finishing right where we are . Baie Comeau's schedule looks very favourable and I think Charlottetown's is easier than ours . Yes anything can happen and that's why they play the games .....so yes it could change but I just don't see it . It all starts with our last 2 Home Games against Bathurst . I expect 4 points but I wouldn't bet a lot of money on it . Tomorrow night is Irish Night in honor of the Late Greg Lynch on Saint Patrick's Day so it should be a good loud crowd . Let's drop the puck and see how it unfolds .

Its pretty telling that their promotions have made no impact.

It looks like a team destine to play either Halifax or Quebec in the first round. If the #1 goal for this season was to make the playoffs, mission accomplished. Given that we are a .500 club since the trade deadline, I am not sure many other boxes were checked this year as it relates to the future and a better record next season.
The jersey's look real sharp tonight, maybe a few green beer will make the pain of watching Goyens coach somewhat bearable.
This is a winnable game tonight, I predict a solid performance by Ruccia.

For 2 periods and a bit we couldn't string 2 passes together but yet we still had enough chances during that time to have been up by 2 or 3 Goals . Ruccia played really well , holding us in the game while we struggled to finally finish a few plays . Ivan was floating most of the night and he wasn't alone . Squires and Roy clicked when they had the chances and that was enough in the end . Pretty Good Crowd at the Rink tonight and they witnessed a win , a very sloppy one but a win none the less .

I totally reject the notion that Ivan Ivan is floating. He has clearly been our best player (certainly forward) for months and I would hate to see where the Eagles would be without him. His play has risen since he was made captain as well. He plays big minutes, is onthe PP and PK and is a factor every time he is on the ice. He has been playing smart and with skill.
Stats are not everything but he is a 0 plus-minus for the year on a team below .500 when he gets big icteime and is tenth in the league in scoring. Other veteran forwards on this team are -30 and -28.
I truly do not understand the criticism of Ivan Ivan at this point.

Since the Xmas trade period I think the Eagles have been one of the biggest disappointments in the league made lots of deals for veterans but never really improved

Nice way to end the season .....Hey Coach Goings .......leave Squires with Ivan and Johnson . If you are hell bent on making him a Center .....you might as well wait til August . Did we possibly break some kind of record for Posts and Crossbars hit by 2 Teams in 1 Game ? On another note , A Scout for Vancouver was sitting up above us the last two nights , we asked who he was here looking at and he just smiled and said he couldn't tell us .....lol. The only reason I mention this is because other Scouts over the Years will tell you who they are looking at and also mentioned some pleasant surprises ......not this Guy though .

Anyone know what happened to rookie Cam Henderson? I haven't seen him dressed for games in almost 2 weeks. Injured or sick?

Eagles picked up the two points tonight with a 6-5 OT Win against the Wildcats.
Going to be an interesting final two days of the regular season for those following the logjam in the Eastern Conference standings.

Trevor Thurston has to get a penalty in every game

Trevor Thurston has to get a penalty in every game Yet another player trying to fight someone after a clean hit to the chest. Yet somehow that is "policing the game" in some people's eyes.

Very interesting now seeing Antoine Roy heat up.
All 7 points hes had with the Eagles have come in the past 11 games after putting up 0 in his first 19.

I think it's all about opportunity, Roy's confidence is building and it shows in his play. He is certainly a more defensive minded player and the Eagles need him to embrace that role. I think it is fair to say that regardless of your role, mins translate into opportunity and offense is the by product. I am very intrigued to see how he develops into next season.
