Tough one for sure with the Pirates losing this series but Biggar was the better team tonight. The Nats got off to a great start and weathered a big surge from the pirates in the 2nd. Lanigan had their chances and couldn’t bury when they needed to. Best of luck to Biggar in the next round.

i’ve been hard on management myself cheeseburger, but this one is on the players and the players only, hard to believe they pay those guys all year to show up wednesday night november in december but can’t show up when it matters, same thing happened with peterson 2 years ago didn’t play game 3 vs warmen Management and certain players need to take some responsibility. First of all, get some better pickups if you are going to go in A. Like I said earlier, Derkach was an excellent pickup, and tran was a good depth pickup. But after that, the others they decided to pick up were useless roster spots. Even with Biggars pick ups there was no way this team should of lost to the nationals. Pirates might need some new blood in the management part of things. Power plays were the difference in game one and three. Nationals capitalized because they looked organized and knew what they were doing with their setup. Lanigans power play unit looked like a poor coached team that didn’t know what to do when they had their power plays. No excuses to lose both games at home to a team that has won a couple games all year? Kinda pathetic. Right when senior hockey ends, they better start looking for some more talent. Yes they had some injuries and shift workers. But one of their best players has went on a trip two times now during big provincial games, think it’s time to reevaluate his dedication and maybe tell him to pack his shit. Shields and calladine were a pleasure to watch all year. I hope they return next season. |

Tran and derkatch were good pickups, especially derkatch he’s still very good. But when u pick up players atleast get get guys that are in shape and who show up. What’s the point in picking of sobkowicz if he never showed once. Thats the issue when picking up players from other teams. Sobkowicz had a playoff game with his league team, and had a hatty, so hard to fault him for that. It’s a scheduling nightmare when picking up other players. |

I get that but when the others on the team went and played for porcupine. Why the hell didn’t he go to Lanigan then. |

Very fair, I’m not sure if it was a group decision on who got to go or the players decided. Definitely a weird scenario. |

If you agree to play on a provincial team then provincials should always come before league. I guess they will learn for next time not to get him lol |

What kind of look is that to your teammates if you play Prov instead of playoffs? Frankly you should be committed to your league team and make it clear they come first. |

And for the most part that is always how it’s been. Rarely do you see a player play Prov the same time his league team has a game. Maybe Tisdale felt like they didn’t need those players to beat Hanley?

I can see why the Prov elimination game would be a priority. |

I get what you’re saying but provincials always before league any day of the week, SHA makes it a priority over league. All I’m saying is if you agree to play then show up. If you have no commitment to even play provs then why say yes. Pirates could of got someone else then. |

You are 100% correct that Prov is more important, no one is arguing that, but the players have still made a commitment to other teams. I suppose there are times that a player will play league with a team and let them know up front he is playing Prov with another team and then it’s that teams fault if they don’t have him for a league game. Generally, when signing for Prov, most teams will know it’s only if the league team isn’t playing. |

Provincials are hard, Lanigan had a full roster all season. Dent young junior B players, couple older guys. Was picking up some
Of these guys for provincials worth losing a couple young guys. I understand risking it if you’re picking up a stud that is going to have proven results. But picking up depth guys to replace depth guys is probably going to hurt them more after this dumpster fire ending.

We’ll see, rumour has it jansen jets trying really hard to convince Lanigan locals to play for them next season.. |

Player must play a league game over the provincial game if scheduled on the same day. Also teams need permission to sign players off different league teams for use of provincials. |
