Coyote0106 2 Report post Posted January 14, 2009 (edited) @ The Griffins are returning to the "Hamilton House of Horrors" for a matchup between the 1 and 3 seed in the division. With Hamilton only 4 points behind the Griffins, and Manitoba tied points are very big tonight. The Griffins have received points in their last 4 games, while Hamilton is coming off of a hard loss against Rochester.Possible line-up: Leino - Abdelkader - Downey Oulahen - Emmerton - Tardif Lemieux - Pare - McGrath Ritola - Gagnon - Haydar Ericsson - Pyett Stafford - Kolosov Kindl - Galvin Starter: Howard Backup: Larsson Scratches: Helm Mursak Atherton JozsaTeam Leaders: GoalsGriffins: Haydar, Ritola (14) Bulldogs: Glumac (17) AssistsGriffins: Leino (24) Bulldogs: Lehoux (25) PointsGriffins: Leino (33) Bulldogs: Lehoux (37) Penalty MinutesGriffins: Downey (65) Bulldogs: Stewart (131) Notes Helm left the arena on crutches the last game, there's a likelihood he is sitting out this game. Leino is on a 3 game point streak. Edited January 14, 2009 by Coyote0106 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GROwl 5 Report post Posted January 15, 2009 Evan McGrath (assist probably to Haydar) on the next power play. Griffins ahead 2-0. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aussie_Wing 354 Report post Posted January 15, 2009 How good is Ritola? Has gone from a questionable prospect to top 6 potential, just scored his team leading 15th goal of the season. He's on a 5 game point streak (4-3-7) and is also a key member of the leagues best PK. And McGrath, no one seems to pay any attention to him but man he's having a great season.

GROwl 5 Report post Posted January 15, 2009 Griffins are still saying that Helm has a Charley Horse. They are hopeful he'll be ready for this weekend's games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
