Morehouse over Lincourt..I mean, gimme a break, I know he's a fan favorite and such, and he do occasionally dish some big ones..but it's not the job of a 20y old. It's the job of a 18-19y old. 20y old's are there to score, or to defend..not to do some forechecking. You said it's a 20 year old's job to score or defend but it's also their job to give a flying f&^# about the game. We got a few 16 year olds on the team, how do you think a 3%(being generous) effort by Lincourt rubs off on them? Do you think they say "He's 20 years old and slacking off, it's our job to pick up the slack for him so we'll try harder"? Do you think that's the mindset of the rookies when they see that? I hope not because if you are I want so of whatever the heck you're on. |

What i find funny is why the wildcat organization would allow a certain player that is still playing have his own charity.Don,t get me wrong it definitley is for agood cause and its nice to see,but who says that chris makes the team at the beginning of the year or just straight out gets released throughout the year or traded  |

They should tell him that type of charity effort is not welcomed here ? Did you mean to read your post before you posted it ... but just forgot ? |

Its too bad for Lincourt (and us too I guess), because if he wanted to the guy could score 35-40 goals this season...

And I strongly believe that Morehouse has more of a positive impact on his teamates in the lineup than what Lincourt might produce if he would play... |

Did we get anything back for Lincourt or was he just released? or is he still in our protection list?  |

If you read carefully ,you can see that i definately agree with the program,but why name it after a certain player that might not be around the whole year,anything can happen.I think chris is doing a great job by starting up this program in the community,but also my understanding its tickets that are purchased by companies in the community not by chris himself,maybe i,m wrong on this.But kudos to chris for starting it up  |

I love the passion Morehouse plays with, other teams are very
fortunate the he is not six foot three and weight 200 lbs as
he would be a one man recking machine, it would be nice
to see more players play with the same intensity that Chris
plays with, and if the coaching staff could stop some of the
silly penalties he takes. he would be much more effective than
he already is.

He already talked to the Wildcats about it at the end of last season, he was going to stick with the program whether he didn't even make the first cut or not, he didn't care, he wanted to do it. |

I know I'm gonna get blasted for this, saying that his style of play wouldn't bring anything to the PP and that he gets called himself too often on stupid penalties & he'd be liable to lose the PP so on and so forth but with the intensity he plays and how bad our PP is, I can't help but think tha he might be the spark needed to ignite Moncton's PP... I mean think about it, wouldn't his ability on the boards and his bone crunching hits boost the players on the ice? What about instilling fear in the heart of the PKers? (OK, I know that might of been pushing it...) But in all seriousness... what would Flynn have to lose by putting him on his top PP unit for a game or two? They're not generating anyways... Blast away... |

Blast away... Once they get setup, I think the PP actually looks pretty decent. They can look ugly trying to get the puck into the offensive zone, but I think with practice and coaching, along with the new defensemen adjusting to the league, the PP will be fine. I have a lot of faith in Flynn's ability to coach even a team of average to mediocre offensive talent into having a good power play. |
