McMahon wasnt that good thats why he got cut from Benilde. and there is no way that he would ever start over Ian Wilson or Taylor Peterson. i also heard that he had the option to play hockey at Benilde his junior year but he turned it down to play at orono during his final Bantam year.Goldy23 wrote:McMahon was a great goalie throughout youth hockey. The problem was he was young for his grade so when he finished his Bantam career he was already a Junior and Benilde was/is full of quality goalies. To bad he didn't stay at Orono as he would have been playing Varsity this year as well as last.RLStars wrote:I remember back in Bantams, they had a pretty good goalie in Kevin McMahon. I know he went to BSM, but I didn't see his name on the Varsity or JV roster. What happened to him?
Also, where did these BSM players go?

this orono team did not look like a top ten team to me on thursday night that first line for red wing looked fantastic and the other lines didnt look to bad either i think that orono was definently not the team i expected them to be they had a few nice offensive plays but for the most part red wing had the stuff together during this game , but i think people are definently over looking this red wing team

Red Wing was a better team on Thursday night. The first line for Red Wing was very dominating. Orono's goalie played fine. Orono had too many dumb penalties and a lack of execution on a number of 2 on 1's where they didn't even get a shot off. I would expect the Orono coaches to take full advantage of learning from the Red Wing game. The Breck game today should be another good game for both teams to figure out the things they need to work on.

Did I hear right? Breck 6 Orono 2? Ouch!!! I'm guessing it was poor coaching. Vegas now taking bets..odds at 3-1 on current Orono coach making it through entire season.

I get the coaching jokes at Orono, given their track record and all. But in this case the Orono coach and family had his mother's funeral this a.m.flatontheice wrote:Did I hear right?

Not sure if it would be an easy transition from life to a h.s. sport. I'm guessing they will cut some slack in this instance.

Actually A. Johnson is a very good coach, and has had an extremely rough week, youve got to really admire him as a person. He buried his mom this morning and went straight to the hockey game, dont even begin to tell me you would be able to do that. Also, please.. enough with the coaching jokes, its getting extremely old, none of you were at orono to experience it first hand and therefore have no idea what went on. Therefore its not your place to comment on it. Its been a rough week for all of us with what has gone on..
The game today was pretty much the same exact story as the game agaisnt red wing, forwards couldnt put the puck away, defense couldnt stop the 2 on 0's, breakaways and 2 on 1's, and 3 on 1's, and goalie couldnt hold the hole defensive side of the game up on his own. Orono has all week to practice and get their crap together and hopefully they will be ready for lake of the woods and Warroad next weekend.

yes, agreed. By looking at stats it seems liek it is totally the goalies fault, but i attended the game today and the Defense simply dont give the goalie a chance... somewhere around 75% of the goalies shots today were either breakaways 2 on 0s 3 on 0s and 3 on 1's, i missed the first part of the first period but i saw the goalie make a save on a 3 on 0, 3 on 1, and 3 or 4 breakaway saves. Orono truly did look like the better team, the defense were just plainly not fast enough for the Mustang's forwards..

I seen the game and they just kept on shooting the puck right into the goalie's chest so he didn't need to work too much. They deffinitly need to get a little better defensively too - thats there major weakness I think.
Agreed. Orono's shots were very poor.

Orono's shots were very good and in the slot alot, but yes it was always right in the chest of the tender. They also could of scored a lot of goals in close too but some how the puck just will not go in the net for them right now. I think they will be fine in conference play, and could turn it on in sections. These last two games for them have just been eye openers for them though.

Re: ????
Sorry did not know that about the coach. My thoughts and prayers go out to him and his family. Just a joke and stab at the parents over there.
First of all, Aaron is a great person and I give him a lot of credit for what he has done this week with everything he is going through. Second of all, he will be a great hockey coach in time.
Third of all, I will be the first one to predict this Orono team will have a tough time because of three things; lack of goaltending, inconsistent defenseman, and not enough depth at forward.

Just to be clear, I am not saying he is a bad coach. I dont know anything about him as a coach. I do know that Orono parents have run out a couple of other good coaches that I do know.Tigers33 wrote:First of all, Aaron is a great person and I give him a lot of credit for what he has done this week with everything he is going through.

How can their D be that slow??? Possibly way too much pinching without forward support??? Just a guess.bauerhock16 wrote:yes, agreed.

If the D is not strong, put a strong forward back there. He can help control play.
I heard it was a MUSTANG STAMPEDE!! And that they just didn't just skate by Orono's D... They flew by them, again and again and....breakout wrote:How can their D be that slow???
