| Line brawl again tonight... what a mess. The Cyclones really got stomped in this one. It was really disappointing especially with Avery Wilson in the mix, who typically does pretty well when he drops the gloves. |

Avery Wilson is a below average fighter. His record for the past two years is far below break-even in his fights. He is a nice guy and has an outstanding work ethic, but he just doesn't cut it as an enforcer. Bonneau, who ain't so hot himself, is done for the year. No big loss. Perhaps Mr. Weber should scroll the SPHL rosters for some help in this area.
But, with the way the game is played (and called) now, winning fights/physical presence isn't a big part of the equation. Even with our deficiency in this department, it shouldn't trip this team up. The lack of quality defensemen might unfortunately.

Apparently, the Wheeling coach went to the Ref's locker room during intermission. You just don't do that! |

| I agree that we need help in this area, and that Avery is NOT a good fighter, but when it comes to playoffs... do you take up roster room with a goon? |

If anyone wants to do Avery job they can try. Next year the Clones are having open try-outs for a chance for you to play for the Clones. So any takers??? I don't know how to post links but just go to the Clones website and see what I'm talking about. Its sounds like to me you can try out and they are picking 2 people to join them in camp to try and make the team. So there you go all the Avery Wilson haters if you think you can do a better job then him GO FOR IT and go try out. |

This is another one of those times that being a nice guy doesn't make you a good hockey player. No one on here said they could do it any better, but there are other goons out there that can. All I'm going to say is, there is a reason he's at the top of the list for Chuck to sit and there's a reason he got MIGHTY comfortable in those stands last year. |

I sent my 150 bucks in. I'll take him. Easily. I'm training with Rich Franklin. Oops, I'd better send my sister instead after Rich is done with me.
Seriously, I like Avery as a person and I admire his determination. But, he isn't a quality enforcer. Period. |

I wouldn't. Except for an Elmira match up. Last year Weber dressed Bonneau throughout the playoffs. It may have been the difference in the very evenly-matched Dayton series. And not a good difference. |
