Small grin on my face hoping it turns into a full smile after tonight. Go Thunder, time to de-throne the kings of Clinton.

Hi Ramrod... I see you Yah I seen you too and you need to stop looking at me like that, I'm not into your lifestyle He is one of the top 3 in the league! No arguing that! It’s nice to watch him play hopefully his knee gets better! But you are still in crack! The d are not better! For how good Clinton is it’s sad to see them dive like they are in the Olympics

Was at the game last night. Defence? Radars.. A+, Thunder just an A. Reffing and diving? First penalty of the game (very cheap), broke up a good end to end game. Just to let us know who the stripes were cheering for. Two blatant checks from behind?(at least a boarding or cross check?), no call. Noticed Vick questioned the ref on the calls to no avail. Even the one you refer to as a dive was a hit from behind. Just took the ref three seconds to decide it was a penalty. Then when the Radars get up a few goals the refs start reffing to the score instead of the action on the ice. Don't think this is a Radar thing. It's just something the refs in this league do. Am I wrong? Look at the penalties in the third period. 7-3 in Tillsonburg's favor. Interference on the goalie was a joke. Fiasco at the end? #22 Radars gets 4 deserved minutes, but how does #12 yellow get away with 2 vicious cross checks to the back of his neck while the victim is on his knees? 5 or a match maybe? Nope, everything comes out even! Oh, and did I mention #20 and #91 standing behind the linesmen chirping everyone? Oh well, maybe Jarmuth's elbow will be good enough to shoot by next weekend and get him back in the lineup before he gets too rusty. Hate to see a good series ruined by B+ officiating.
P.S. Good game or bad, it was ruined by the guy on the clock with lengthy delays. Sorry to complain about the hired help. I know they are hard to find. Just saying.

I figured we wouldn’t hear from Ramrod until last nights game ended. Another great game last night and again came down to goaltending. Some good fast hockey last night with some inconsistent reffing and a lot of embellishment from Clinton players. It’s PLAYOFF hockey, you have to battle through a few hooks and holds, not dive all over the place trying to get calls. I’m sure refs will catch onto this and start dishing out diving penalties. Looks like Consett, Vick and Doig combined for all of Clinton’s goals. Starting to wonder if their coach isn’t on this forum and listening to my advice Tilly wins next 2 no doubt!

FYI Randy. Those three didn't play as a unit last night until maybe the third period. (BECAUSE THEY STUNK THE JOINT OUT FRIDAY NIGHT & THEY KNEW IT). Combined for the third goal, but earlier they were juggled around. Much better effort by all the boys last night. If they can come up with that effort every time they will certainly be tough to beat. Don't care how much diving you think they do.

Don't care how much diving you think they do. Unless my eyes are really going on me, I’m 110% sure those three started all 3 periods. Which tells me they played together the whole game, which they did, because I was there and looking to see if they would be together and how much they would play. I looked on pointstreak to confirm but it looks like both of consetts goals were assisted by Doig which again proves your statement wrong. Very irrelevant stuff but don’t come on here and try to make someone look bad because I should be the radars coach after the advice I just gave them.

Wow this forum is full of Radars staff and execs it appears :😀 Having been at both games..... All I can say is this is going to be a great and I suspect long series. A few bouncers either way in either game and this series could be 2-0 either team. As for the #12 yellow comment. Yes he cross checked 22 viciously won't disagree.... However 22 uses his stick on guys above the neck frequently. 12 took a number good shots to the head and retaliated... But the bigger issue and linee27 hit the nail on the head... Reffing. This brutal attempt to use 4 men staff with poor staff is the cause of much flare ups.... They call the minor incidental stuff and let the more flagrant violations go early in the game..... It's not until the score leans hard one way do they start to call the flagrant stuff..... Then you get what you get end of Sat nights game..... The other officiating issue that irks many fans is icing.... They seem to waive off more then they call it was borderline ridiculous on Sat night.... The 3rd Clinton goal was on an clear cut icing call..... Refs could be the ruin of a great series here. 2 Good fast skilled teams. I say let the teams decide the games.....

Apologies Randy.....My bad. After conferring with someone else who was also at the game it is confirmed that you were right and I was wrong. (please don't tell my wife. She still thinks I'm perfect). Maybe I was just wishing they would be split after Friday's game? In my defence, Doig does get moved around from wing to center to defense a lot. I must have been confused. Maybe have to cut back on the pre game beers!! Anyway, let's hope we see a few more good games in the next couple of weeks. Looks like Durham is on cruise control, and will be waiting for this winner if Ripley doesn't wake up soon.

P.S. Sorry. Forgot to mention: If you look at the line mates for the first two goals and the times of the last two goals it would support my statements. Even if I was wrong.

Looks like Randy1976 has got it right so far.... Tending is gonna be or has been the difference. Give Lee a A++ and Nother a B-. Big statement game tonight..... Prediction Tillsonburg 4 Clinton 3 and it will be the first OT game of series. Still gonna be a 7 gamer I think though

Mr Lee made an explosive offence curl up like a ball, what a performance. Clinton is crumbling under the pressure, this one is over in 5.
This Tillsonburg team can play, and they do it hard,fast and together.
Tilly 3-1 tonight to put the 20-0 reg season radars on the brink.

It’s a prediction, and I was wrong. I won’t run and hide like ramrod when him and everyone else had clinton in 4. Lee and the Thunder stunk up the joint last night. He held Tilly in the game for the first period, just like game 3 but couldn’t sustain it, but who could.
Tilly will bounce back.
On another note a very vicious cross check by Clinton player and vicious sucker punch by Tilly player soon after. Both players should be suspended minimum for the remainder of this series, if not that is a travesty.
Tilly and Lee bounce back in game 5 and win 4-3 in my unprofessional opinion.
