Well the Colts are no longer first in the east. They played well enough, the bounces just didn't go our way. Hit the post at least 4 times and Subban was the difference. Scheifele was completely shut down other than a few good chances.
Great win tonight against the Attack. Both Ekblad and AA had monster games. The atmosphere was also great at the BMC for this game. Hopefully it stays that loud for the rest of the season.

Good that EK5 is back in the lineup to anchor the defence core. Interesting that MS19 comes back and without AC15 and EK5 the Colts lose 4 in a row, then MS19 goes out with a suspension and they get the other two back to win two in a row. As great as Mark is, I think the Colts have a lot of players with his scoring skillset (albeit at a lower level). Unfortunately it would appear that they can't replace Camara's forecheck or Ekblad's D. If all three are in the lineup, this team should rock the rest of the season.

The PP seems to really struggle without Scheifele out there controlling the play. Getting both him and Theoret back in the lineup will be huge. Anyone know when Theoret is getting back? I have only seen him play once or twice since we got him at the deadline. Yesterday was the first time that I have seen Rymarchuk play and I really like how hard he plays. He had a few big hits and also got into a fight.
They also appear to be getting on a roll before the playoffs. Should be a good game against the Bulls next week.
Do you know if Webster was injured or was he a healthy scratch? Either way I think that Yuill has been playing great and deserves a spot in the lineup.

This - from the moment they were drafted I was looking forward to Ekblad / Yuill being the Pronger / Niedermeyer duo of the OHL in 2013-2014.
A gift from the 67s tonight. Maybe the Bulls were looking forward to a big weekend? Regardless, with a win on Saturday night things will get really interesting... Would be nice to get on a good roll headed into the playoffs...

I think the Colts will have to win out from here to get the top seed. With the only tough game against the team they are chasing, I think is possible.

If Barrie beats Sudbury tomorrow night and then beats Belleville after that, I bet it pays big on March 17. The next 2 games mean more than most of the other 4 after that. Check the schedules for Barrie and Belleville. It will answer all the questions you have.

Agreed...the Bulls have the more difficult schedule and the Colts have the tie breaker... They probably have to come close to winning out though...no more than one loss for sure if they want the top seed.
The Boston Bruins have signed forward Anthony Camara to an entry level contract,meaning its unlikely that he returns for an overage season next yr for the Colts
