WHL Final series

[Sabres73]

Moose Jaw took the first game of the series against the Portland Winterhawks. It looks like our boy Savoie scored the winner with just over three minutes left in the game.

Excellent.... Although your thread will get 10x the responses once they start losing.  😉

If he play too well he becomes untradeable.

I've very curious to see Savoie in prospects camp and then training camp.

That was a nice little shot, well placed.

I hope he can come in with his skill and add some of Benson's dogged determination - that would be super nice.

Savoie going deep in the WHL playoffs is good.

I would like to see him outperform Krebs in camp but get sent down for seasoning and to improve his 200’ game. 
I’m talking about the 4C role here not the 3C that KA wants to hand to Krebs.

Another year and then one of Savoie, Kulich, Östlund or Wahlberg forces their way into the lineup. Savoie, Rosen and Kulich could all get looks during the season as the injuries hit.

Why does the announcer remind me of the "apparently kid" with his inflections.

Sabres training camp, where he ups his value and we package him for an NHL ready contributor.

I am actually concerned that the Sabres plan for center next year might very well be Thompson, Cozens, Krebs, Savoie and that's it.

Moose Jaw took a sledgehammer to the Winterhawks

5-1 Win to go up 2-0 in the series

[Sabres73]

Going home up 2-0 - Go Warriors! I don't believe they've ever made it to the Memorial Cup before. Savoie with one apple tonight. They're doing great for a team that only finished third in the eastern conference. You never know once you get in....

Nope they never have.

How in the world does a team playing in Moose Jaw end up the Warriors and not the Molars?

It's so friggin' obvious what they should've been called.

The name Moose Jaw comes from a Cree name for the place, moscâstani-sîpiy, meaning “a warm place by the river”. The first two syllables, moscâ-, sound remarkably like “moose jaw”.
 

The Warriors team were originally the Winnipeg Warriors before they relocated.

I would like to see him at 3C with Benson on his wing.

Drummondville up 4-0 in the first. Komarov with a goal. They are up 2-0 in the series.

I have a co-worker in Portland (also originally from Buffalo). He went to game 2 in the series and said it was very noticeable each and every time Our Boy Savoie was on the ice. He said even the Portland crowd buzzed a little when he was out there. Look out, Rochester! We got another one for ya!
