pounded in own building

[shop2]

Hat beat the crap out of us at home.Funny watching Manson. He would not of stood for that. Really is that all we have and that is not the history in that building, DISGRACE............Time for Campese to quit with tail between legs and leave town,,,,,,,,,,,,gutless disgrace to all fans of hockey

[TalkHockey]

can you give a re cap of the game.

[Sttop]

5 on 5 pretty even game . Once again special teams and goaltending was the difference.

[chalk_one_up]

I don't know if this is getting really sad, or a comical relief. Anyways, after this campaign, if season tickets and walk-ups don't decrease somewhat - same as the product on the ice, the fan base, if there still is one, will be diminished even further. People WILL NOT pay to watch a disgraceful product on the ice. People can only shell out so much for something so un-entertaining regardless of what some say. And to be honest, this team might be in more of a world of trouble even further next season.

If Campese can get anything for players like Herrod, Corbin, Maylan and Vanscourt - he should trade them and have a full out rebuild. That is something that hasn't really happened in Prince Albert. When they have made trades it was always getting older players and loading up at the expense of the younger players.

The big question though is does McNeill get moved? How sick was he really last night???:dead:

How sick was he really last night???:dead:

Sick of playing for PA.

[Wildeyes]

you what the toughest part of the season is. They have Three things they have to play against. 1) the other team 2) every single night the refs 3) OUR OWN FANS.

Last nights game- they review a high stick on PA and wave it off. High sticked goal for Med Hat and they call it. The refs are putting the Raiders at a disadvantage even before the game starts.

Morriseys hit last night was UNREAL clean check. they gets jumped and had to fight and no instigator for the tigers for jumping Morrisey.

What we need to do is support our players they are not Pro players they are still kids playing away from home. Lets give them the support they need.

[the voice]

I agree. No matter what, the team needs support. Players AND coaches/manager. That's what fans do. That's what we need to do.

It would be easy for fans to jump ship right now, but there are some encouraging signs. Raiders PP has been getting better (Yes, I know they gave up another shortie, but that was 1 player's bad decision to try and blast a puck through Etem). They actually controlled the puck for long stretches and got a lot of shots to the net once set up in MH end. You can see Manson's influence already in keeping the puck up high and generating chances from the point. They'll start converting some of those tips & rebounds.

Some young players are emerging as some of the best Raiders. I thought Morrissey, Lange and Winther all had strong games.

5 on 5 was pretty even, although Raiders are not really equipped to handle MH's speed up front. Special teams another story. PK was not very sharp.

Entertaining game, even though Raiders were without Ruopp and McNeill. It didn't seem like a 6-1 game.

Raiders outshot and out-chanced the Tigers.
Bunz was the difference as he made every save he had to and Williams did not.

[Western Elite]

It is probably time the Raiders start to deal off many, not all of their assets and acquire more building blocks to go with Winther, Morrissey, Danyluk and Reid Gardiner.

For the Raiders to make the playoffs, they will need 67 more points if Calgary and Regina continue to play at their current clip of .542 hockey.

Needed Record:
Prince Albert .687 win percentage needed. 33-12-1 type record. Even if Calgary and Regina both tank and go 15-30-3. Prince Albert would need 48 points still in 46 games or about a record of 23-23-2 record. That is if both Regina and calgary tank.

Playoffs won't happen, time to start planning for the future and do it right.

Players deserve support. Bottom line on Campese and his crew ... their 5 year plan is, and has been, a disaster. No more excuses blaming refs, special teams, bad luck, goaltending, fan support and etc etc. Coaching and management regimes must be, and always will be, judged on their record. Agreed, fans should support a team, you're right, that's what fans generally do. They also have the right to stay home. This team has been misguided for 4 1/2 years. Time for a complete change of management and coaching. It seems very clear that those supporting management and coach, in the face of a horrific record, must be very close to management and coach. I feel really very sorry for the players and fans.

well said

[reims]

I am very suprised on how your season has gone...i expected much more after you almost upset the blades in the first round and returned almost every player....I still think the talent is there, and somehow it has to come down to players buying into a coach or manager or whatever....There is no arena like the art huaser in the playoffs, its an awesome atmosphere and its really too bad it probably wont happen this year....I feel for you fans

perhaps the raiders will opt for a 1 owner & run it right 1 day , or not .

I don't get why fiddler gets top line minutes

[puckdad]

No clue why. He was a scorer in Midget AAA, where he didn't have to play any defense, but not scoring at all this year. Could have had a couple of easy goals tonight if he had skated hard to the net, but was cruising too slow to realize until the opportunities were gone.
