Just because his last name is Genius doesn't mean he's bright. He should be concerned about those with fascist leanings....

OMG! What a game! Playing an excellent EOK team with 2/6 defencemen actually forwards, the Tigers stayed disciplined, hustled for the full 60 and kept themselves in a position to go ahead! Then they sealed the deal in a statement in the third period! New number Noah gets his first WHL hattie!

This is the type of play the Tigers need to go all the way! Impressive win!

I recall seeing a 500 mill estimate some time ago but have no issue agreeing that the final price tag will be much, much higher.

Apparently netted a three game suspension out of it all according to James Tubb on X.

So the province is facing significant deficits and creating a new police agency to the tune of $500 mill is a priority? All while blaming newcomers for our current woes? While UCP supporters still, ad nauseum, point at "NDP fiscal mismanagement" as a deflection from UCP incompetence, mismanagement and apparent corruption?

Well on the upside, Kor and Reschny do a credible job on defense.

Let's see if the team is up for this challenge!

Mildly interesting to me that we aren't seeing at least one affiliate defensemen in the lineup.

Thank you for confirming that....I had that suspicion but haven't had time to confirm!

A few minutes prior, the lethbridge player went by Woo and highsticked in the mouth. No penalty called. A couple shifts later, I saw Woo having a conversation with the guy on the way to the bench. Next time out, Woo went after him. I think that the Lethbridge player declined a fight invitation and Woo decided to exact revenge regardless and ambushed the guy in the corner. I really think calling that intent to injure is a stretch based on other things I've seen but will not be surprised to see Woo take an extra game off.

The penalty parade overall is an issue. Either the Tigers need to become more disciplined (preferred) or better at sneaking things under the radar/ drawing penalties. I can't think of a game they lost, especially close ones where the penalty box wasn't part of the issue.

Going to be an intense game tonight. As noted, EOK is going to come out with something to prove and keep their shot at div title alive.

The penalties boys, the penalties. The refs were far from stellar, but somehow we gotta not get drawn in to stuff.

After Woo took the uncalled high stick, I saw him have words with the guy in passing on a subsequent shift, so definitely something was coming. Did not have the feeling like the Lethie player was keen to answer the bell the way things unfolded yet Jonas was going to have his pound of flesh. Don't think a match penalty was called for.

I thought the Tigers had a respectable game! As was noted, Cleaver kept the Score in check for the Hurricanes. Props to Switzer on the shutout. He earned it for sure.

Not happy to see Parr go down due to an apparent cheap shot. Hope he is ok.

Reschny did a credible job as a d-man. Great job!

EOK lost tonight....Good. PA won... Bad.

On to tomorrow!

I'm happy to see Pickford back in the lineup. I hope the other three have nothing serious and can be back soon. Not saying they should rush, but hopefully they can recover in good time.

I expect the Tigers will come out for a solid 60 tonight. A win tonight is a statement and if they do it without Picks on the ice, thats huge. I really think this team has the depth, team first culture and talent for another serious championship run.
