BanTSN Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 A lot has been put into his shutdown efforts vs McD, but it really has been a team effort. Generals just playing a better brand of hockey overall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck_in_AB Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 That's a standard nickname formula! Another hockey nickname generater is adding -sy to the last name. In this case it wouldn't work! Casselsy? Nah. CoCa is much better! In my humble opinion. lol It's quite simple. Nat King Cole. Of course, the Nat part makes no sense, so shorten to King Cole. Kidding, of course. Let the kid earn it next year... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TGokou Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Just think how many more points Cassels might have gotten in the North Bay Battalion series if they didn't play such a defensive team. Edit: Another point for Cassels and it's over! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canucks1219 Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 After Period 3 Cassels: 1 assist, +2 On night: 4 assists, +3, 1 minor penalty - McDavid has come to play, despite being pointless. Involved in two consecutive scoring opportunities on two different lines, back-to-back, early in the 3rd. Another one came a few minutes later. Currently at the first commercial break and I think McDavid has been triple-shifting so far this period. That probably won't change. I keep thinking "Huh, Cassels is out against Strome... Oh wait, McDavid's on his wing, of course..." - Through 2.5 periods I've been disappointed with Dal Colle. He drew a penalty that led to a goal and got a PP assist but he has been mostly ineffective at 5v5. He's matched against the Strome line and they've sort of neutralized each other. Not much from the 5th overall pick of last year and not much from a guy going around there this year. I have seen none of the elite skill that MDC has played with all year up to this point. To be fair, his centre has been Michael McCarron, who's a good player but not exactly a premier centre. - Less than 6 minutes left now. Not a lot going on, which is great for the Generals. The entire Oshawa team has done a good job here of breaking up passes and pressuring Otters skaters. - Grade A chance for McDavid - Strome - DeBrincat with the Generals scrambling a bit in their own end but nothing to show for it... again. - Latour with a breakaway goal and it's 5-2 Generals. HUGE goal! Cassels has been on the ice for 4 Oshawa goals. - On the very next shift, McDavid is robbed by Ken Appleby on a breakaway. Crazy back-to-back shift here... - Otters goalie is pulled after an Erie timeout for 6-on-5. An Oshawa penalty leads to 6-on-4... - Cassels with an assist on an empty net goal to make it 6-2 Generals.. Game's over, Generals win the OHL championship and go on to play in the Memorial Cup in Quebec! MVP of the game for me is Cole Cassels, with a slight edge over Ken Appleby who made some fantastic saves late in the game. Cassels shutdown McDavid in all situations, won lots of key faceoffs, and picked up assists on the PP. What an incredible game from him. Wow.

Canucks1219 Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Series MVP should go to him too as he had 12 points (4g, 8a) in the 5 games, in addition to shutting down McDavid and being a key penalty killer and faceoff guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TGokou Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Once again McDavid held off the scoresheet. Just to put that into context, McDavid has only been held off the score sheet 4 times all year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

48MPHSlapShot Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Damn. Cassels is gonna be a helluva player for us. To think he was a 3rd round pick. Guy could be captaining the Canucks in 5 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
