Did You Know?

The team was founded in 1969 and, unlike many teams in the league, has never left Shawinigan.

[reddogbluedog]

Should be one of the better games of the season with both teams winning 7 of the last 10. I am going 4 - 2 Dogs with the last goal hitting the open net.

[hockey1981]

I'll say 5-3 SJ with Di Domenico getting a hat trick!

[CatsFan]

6-2 Dogs.

[briansjnb]

This is one team I have never seen play, never hear about, and know absolutely nothing about. Should be an interesting game.

[reddogbluedog]

With Gallant back do we have a healthy scratch tonight and if so who is that player?

[Judas In My Mind]

Scott Howes. He didn't get a point last game and JB wants to obey you and Springer and give those 3rd and 4th line guys more ice time, and sitting Howes will allow someone who normally doesn't get as much ice time to move up onto the 2nd line and PP. ;D

[springer]

Leask you are starting to embarass me.

Gallant would make 13 and I am not familiar enough with our opponents tonight to know if they have a tough guy or not. I am guessing that Gallant sits tonight if not people would have mentioned some type of show down between Gallant and someone else.

Tough one to call tonight I am going with 5 - 4 Dogs.

[bjindaho]

apparently 3 clicks is too much effort for you to see that they have Ashton Bernard and Francis Fillion.

[mrlittlewolf]

5-2 dogs as i said for the titan game

as for who sits tonight charland just my guess or stoddard

[bjindaho]

i think charland is playing too well now. Stoddard is probably the odd man out, since Kirkpatrick has become too valuable.

[elementz]

Welp...issues at work that are critical means that I won't be able to make it tonight.

Go Dogs

[Y Ddraig Goch]

does this colour guy you got just make things up as he goes along?

Roger Kennedy is a 20 year old?
moncton played Shawiningan (It was R-N) last night and one of their better players (Tolles - he's far from that) gets 5 and changes the game.

no-one is perfect but how many errors can one guy make and keep a job?

Every time i watch the webcast he's talking out of his ass, just flat out making things up.

[elementz]

Rough start for Fullerton
