The Bulldogs will gain another bigger forward from the NCAA in Walsh next season to join Quailer as forwards with size and skill.A combination that allows them time and their linemates to make plays,using their physicality for things other than fighting which neither player is noted for doing.Fred Gauthier could be another such player in the upcoming draft.
Dogs getting completely dominated...again. The amount of 1 to 5 shot periods this team has is beyond ridiculous. That's on the coaching.
The dinosaur Lefebvre deserves every bit of this with his ridiculous policies and his stubbornness with refusing to break up a winning lineup and such. Playing 2 goons almost every game with the murderous and difficult schedule this team has is just ridiculous. You are essentially telling the opposition that they only have to be concerned about 3 lines.
But seriously, let me rant about the schedule. I'd love to see the strength of schedule stats for the AHL because the Dogs schedule has to be the hardest. Every game they face a good team, or a real good team. Rochester is like the weakest team they've faced this year based on the current standings (and they were doing well early when Hodgson was healthy). Syracuse isn't even in their conference yet this is the 3rd meeting?!?

True Lefebvre can't make adjustment at all...... so far he's really bad at coaching, and every person who have watch the dogs this year have saw that Stortini is the most useless player on the ice every ******* game.....GET A CLUE!!!!!!!!!!!!

I worked out the math a few games back, expected winning percentage for an average team against Hamilton's level of schedule would be closer to .400 than .500. They have a brutal division but also have been playing only division leaders outside it besides St. John's. Its notable how much better a team they looked when not facing a top tier AHL lineup.
Care to describe the goal? I closed the feed at 3-0.
Beaulieu picked a rebound up on the blue line, deked along the boards all the way down to the net, circled the net and found palushaj in the high slot for a one timer. Great play by Beaulieu.
Bulldogs have no playmaking or transition ability whatsoever.
haha. I was just about to say how they looked pretty good in that period!
I haven't watched the last 5 or so Dogs games and I always seem to catch the bad ones so that period (from 13:20 on when I started watching) was the best I've seen them play.
Whenever I see them they're transition is so bad that they can't even get out of their zone. So from what I've seen they're has been some improvement.
And wow does Desjardins play aggressive. I like it.

Reading your post made me want to see the play, but I expected to see more
there was no deke, he skates around the net and finds Palushaj and Palushaj fires a sick one-timer.
But it was a good play by Beaulieu nonetheless!

yeah well no real dekes but he protected the puck pretty well and faked the shot to freeze the D's.

Not really a surprise, the center line was already lacking playmaking when Geoffrion was healthy and now you take him and Bournival out and it's just a collection of grinders down the middle, combine that with mostly shooters down the wing, a green defence, whatever the ''system'' is and a collection of veterans (aside from FSD and Desjardins) who look to be going through the motions constantly and you get this mess.
Fred Gauthier could be another such player in the upcoming draft.
