Newfoundland Hockey Talk

This topic cracks me up, most of the posters will go to their grave defending the right for NL teams to add strengthening players for The Allan Cup but let another team add way less players to make the Herder competitive and those same posters scream foul. At least they are adding players that have...

Tyler has certainly played well for the Bous when called upon this season. Churchill was backup for game three and the first period, Tyler was shakey in the first giving up three goals, Church came in for the third and shut the door. Tyler was back in for game five in the series and closed it out. I...

Seems like someone in town read my post. Games this weekend on radio and even made the tv news. Oh right games are in town, that explains it.

Are both players playing

I thought I read somewhere they were done, Nicholas with a rotator cuff injury and not sure what Pye's issue is.

Are you serious, "spitting at fans on his way to the penalty call". Now there's a role model for young hockey players in the city to look up to, how did he become the captain with that mentality? Was he elected by the players, appointed by the coaching staff or was he self appointed....I'm...
