Newfoundland Hockey Talk

I won't make a prediction on the score, but I do know that if Mount Pearl stay out of the box, and DON'T go with four defencemen all night, they'll come away on top.

Did O'Brien get hurt or something? I don't undertand taking a goalie out after letting in 3 goals in 2 periods.

You can never count a team out. Lots of games and Championships are won with heart and determination, over skill.

They're playing very well early on, no doubt about it!

Devin and Mark will most likely go game for game, at least to start the year. Who will start tonight? Guess we'll find out in a couple of hours!

I can't wait personally!

They released him at the end of the year, and I don't think he's playing any high caliber hockey this year. He could be toiling in the ECHL or somewhere like that, but according to hockeydb.com at least, he's nowhere to be seen.

Cormier was one of, if not THE top Heavywight in the QMJHL the four years he played there. And simply put, that's why David Victor lost. I'm not trying to downgrade Victor by any means, because i'm sure he's a tough customer, but as I said, Cormier, at least in my opinion, is that much tougher.

Mark will be fine. They had a young team last year and he saw a lot of rubber. But they've got a year under their belt, some new players and another good goalie to split time with him. I see Mount Pearl doing farily well this season.

I don't know about you guys, but I can't wait to see the Blades take the ice this season!
