Cats at Allan Cup

[goaljudgejunkie]

One of the keys for the Allen Cup may be conditioning. If the Herder playoffs are long and dragged out with the Cats in it, the team may be injury plauged and lack the stamina needed for a serious Allen Cup Challenge. Here is another thought. If the Cats loose to Clarenville in the finals who are the defending Allen Cup Champs, even if they go on to capture the allen cup, will it mean as much/ Just asking. By the way , anything can happen in the playoffs

conditioning does play a huge roll.. look at the past..

2010 - Caribous won the herder, and went on to play at the Allan Cup and didn't win a game (was first year as well at allan cup, which was also a major learning experience)

2011 - Caribous were put out in first round of semi-finals, had a month before the allan cup, and went on to win the allan cup undefeated in all games they played..


now does does this have any connections what so ever?.. I dunno.. but its interesting none the less.

Hey TOMCOD I remember two years the Caribous went to the Allan Cup they took ALOT of critisizm from just about all Cats fans... I also remember certain posters saying if the Caribous can win just imagine how the Cats would do.... Now lets see how they live up to expectations right?

In the meantime I do wish the Cats all the best in their quest for the Allan Cup. I really hope you can bring er home and make it two years in a row.

Going to be a tough cookie to crack this year i think ,, Looks like the Bentley Generals will not be there this year they were defeated by the Horse Lake Chiefs 4 games to 1

Oh yes.... it really seems like it...... I'm keeping an eye who gets in or not but whoever does will be tough competition.

The Horse Lake team has pretty well all ex - WHL/ECHL players with a few former NHL draft picks.... Interesting to see that their two top point getters are defense. They must have had quite the team this year to knock off Bentley in just 5 games. I think Hoffe and Lewis would have a hard time going up against their offense.

Check out this guy Steve Later they have... Another big D-man who was 6th in team scoring.

6' 4" 200 lbs from Winnipeg and had 296 PIM in 59 games playing in the IHL... looks like someones gonna have their hands full with this guy.

[Catch 22]

If I were the Cats I would definitely load up with as many extra affiliate players as they could take... Sure take ALL their own players that want to make the trip but they will need lots of help. Perhaps Darren Langdon wouldn't hurt afterall.

After games this weekend they are losing there series 2-0 to Stony Plain.... Horse Lake won last night but it got reversed due to Horse Lake having one too many imports playing...
