THUMBS UP-THUMBS DOWN MONDAY

Thumbs Up to...
  • Michael Kirkpatrick for scoring his 50th career QMJHL goal in the Sea Dogs win over the Rocket on Sunday. (pictured)
  • Mike Hoffman for a terrific weekend. Lets keep it going!
  • Gerard Gallant for sending a message to his team this week. He called out the veterans and showed the goaltenders some business. If only he was here last season.
  • Sea Dogs alumni Travis Fullerton for recording his first shutout of the season for UNB in their 10-0 win over UPEI. It's almost unfair for AUS teams to play UNB.
  • Marc-Antoine Gelinas who now has the opportunity to lead the Dogs in net as long as he wants. Can he be consistent though is the real question.
  • Fleaburn. All that hard training over the past week was worth it as he beat Wild Willie. Good thing he didn't have a four wheeler.
  • Wild Willie for making the trek down the highway. Thumbs down to him for reportedly storming out of Harbour Station after the loss.

Thumbs Down to...

  • the Sea Dogs marketing staff. Sunday's attendance was unacceptable.
  • the Pillar's of Fame. I had to do a triple take this weekend on the new additions. It just makes no sense the way are setup now with Steven Anthony two pillars to the left of Felix Schutz. Somebody screwed up.
  • Louis Domingue. After consulting with some witnesses we all agree that he should have stopped the overtime goal.
  • the game day programs. I can memorize team leaders, I want the real stats!
  • to the Telegraph-Journal yet again this week who was yet again shown up by the Times & Transcript in terms of Rivalry Cup coverage. At least the crowd was bigger this time.
  • Kirill Kabanov. Very disappointing game on Saturday.
  • Karel St. Laurent who's wild attempts to play the puck have cost him a starting job.
  • the linesmen working Sunday's game and breaking up a fight before it began. Wright vs Thomas would have been a beauty.
