Home Ice finally ment something last night with a big crowd and a home ice VML win to take the series. In Wade words "Woooooo"
First it's cool that the 'old cats': Parker, Hayes, Kavanagh and Gillis get to play at least another four Junior B games thanks to the hard work of the VML crew in blue. Also wish the Peguins overagers Trevor Thorne, Tim Mannete and Colton Abraham all the best in their futures.
A few quotes from the night'
Fan "That fella looks like the RoadRunner with his feet going when he was in the air" Gillis in the third when he was hit and up along the boards.
Fan "this is good hockey" hopefully there's alot more in the ole "Barn'
Sticksey "Five unanswered baby, five unanswered" after the crew scored 5 staight after being down 2-0 for the win
Jonathan 'Cheerios' Hunson "March 6,2015 #VML made history. Couldn't be more thankful for such great support from all the fans and the town of windsor @ValleyMapleLeaf"
Mitch 'Newf' Normore post
"Like to say first hand that a crowd like that is a huge game changer. I would like to thank everyone on behalf of the team for coming out. Such a game changer when we can gain energy from the crowd like that. Lots of hockey left for the leafs and I'm excited to see what turn outs we can get#VML"
Wade Wile "7th man(crowd)" In response to Normore's post. I think we'll go with 7th VML(our crowd) to honour our supporters in the 'Barn'
Thanks to all that supported a little history: First game 7 for the crew and the first time into the second round. It was good to see a lot of VML alumni in the crowd and Jeff Longaphy helping as Trainor taping the crew up for battle.
Yes sir Colin 'Old' McKinley picked up the "Hard Hat' for his efforts
RIp's 'nod' goes to the CREW in VML blue with the big Home Ice win to take the 'County Bounty'. with honourable mention to the '7th VML'
Oh and thanks to K-Rock 89.3 for helping to put '7th VML' in the stands.
