Moncton Wildcast

What IS Happening 2.0?!

So is not the same show as last week but is it time for a new voice, and if it is, who "could" it be? We through some names out, but theyre in a very tough spot with only 2 months left in season but also a year where we're "supposed" to contend.
The Local Sports Pub #WeeklyRewind was another week with losses, another week with no answers?! The Wildcats lost BOTH games over the weekend and now head out on a VERY tough 6 game road trip, where 3 of those games are against top 4 teams in the league (Gat-Vic-Que).

What’s Happened to the Wildcats?!

We're back for another episode after the storm rolls through the Maritimes but it's not just off the ice that's been stormy, the Wildcats are snowed under so far in the past two weeks. 
The Weekly Rewind presented by The Local Sports Pub was not great, lost 2 of 3 including to the last place Islanders and Sags (midst of 3 in 3) and it just was lackluster in both games. 
So how do they fix it and is Lacroix on the hot seat with 2 home games this weekend as part of Timbits Weekned..we discuss

Special Guest Mathias Muller In Studio

Welcome back for a second episode this week, this one was a little different but a very fun interview. We were joined in studio by Mr Mathias Muller, father of Miles Muller of your Moncton Wildcats. 
It was a fun chat, where we talked about having a son playing in another country, as well how Moncton was able to land Miles in the draft without an import roster spot. How is hockey different in Switzerland as well we chatted about his role as President of the Lyss HC. 
Once again, thank you to Mr Muller for taking the time to be in studio and chat with us, always fun to do a different type of interview!
ENJOY

Wildcats Cooling off like the Weather?

The weather couldn't stop us, as we are back for another episode. The Local Sports Pub Weekly Rewind had the Wildcats with one game cancelled over the weekend on Friday due to weather (so good to say that after 2 years) but we had 2 games that yes they were in but special teams was the difference as the Wildcats let the Remparts and Mooseheads go 50% on the PP, not a great recipe and they went 0-2 in those.
We got a little of topic during the "News and Notes Around the Q" as we look WAY ahead to the QMJHL Draft in Sherbrooke and maybe a Wildcats/Phoenix trade that sets the dominoes falling to a roster that could host the 2025 Memorial Cup?!

Christmas 1st half Finale

We have made it to Christmas and that signals the end of the 1st half of the QMJHL season for the Moncton Wildcats. The end the first half 16-13-0-1 for 34pts and 2nd in the division and 4th in the Eastern Conference. 
We went 2-1 on the weekend but we're looking for this club to look in the mirror and figure this out in the 2nd half, too many collapses in the 2nd period that has this team not where we'd thought they'd be. Can the real Wildcats please stand up! 
We're at the trade deadline period, and we have seen a few league trades go down so we talk those as well what could happen in the 2nd half.

Final Maritime Trade Deadline Preview Show

Well even thought the deadline has begun we still had to hear from a couple voices from around the Q!
First we started in Quebec with Cedrik Blondin of the Blainville-Boisbriand Armada who gave us his thoughts on a tough season so far as well maybe some teams and names to keep an eye on in Quebec.
Then we had Johnny Rocket Jonathan Roy from Slapshots Podcast join us to get his thoughts on what the Titan may do with their 2 big names during this trade period as well as in goal. 
And finally we wrap up talking Wildcats, including the Darcy and Iasenza trade as well possible names that could go out and become part of the Wildcats in the next few weeks!
Once again thanks to everyone involved, Jamie Tozer (Station Nation), Cory Arsenault(Islanders colour voice), Willy Palov (Mooseheads Beat Reporter), Pat McNeil (Eagles PxP voice) and of course Jonathan Roy and Cedrik Blondin for joining us to get you set for the trade deadline!
Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas!

Pretty Good Weekend for the Cats

The Wildcats finally get back to winning ways as they get wins in 2 of 3 games as they had out on the biggest roadtrip of the season as our Christmas Deadline approaches. 
We had to have our Maritimes Trade Deadline guests in this show due to time constraints and head to Nova Scotia to have Willy Palov (Mooseheads) and Pat McNeil (Eagles) talking about their teams going in different ways coming into the trade period. 
 Wildcats finish the first half with a 3 in 4 nights this weekend as they take on Mooseheads and home & home with the Titan. This is a big week for players looking to make a case to stay here during the trade period.

Maritimes Trade Deadline Preview

Welcome back to our annual Maritimes Division Media Trade Deadline Preview show, as we are into the month of December so that means we're a couple weeks away from the QMJHL Trade Period!
We get started with Cory Arsenault , the color voice of the Islanders to discuss possible moves for Hulton in Charlottetown as they look to start the rebuild, will the move LaPenna among a few other vets and who are some young guys to step into bigger roles in 2nd half!
We then have a chat with airport expert and editor of Station Nation Jamie Tozer to discuss the rebuild for the Mem Cup champ Sea Dogs. We also discuss there 20 yr old goalie Hurtubise among a few other vets because they need draft picks and some of their young guys to step into bigger roles in 2nd half!
Next Week we have Wiley Palov (Mooseheads) Pat McNeil (Eagles) Cedric Blondin (Armada) as well as few Quebec teams!
Enjoy!!

Christmas Season is upon us

The calender has turned over to December which means the games start to mean a little more interms of the trade deadline and means 2 shows a week, this regular show and our annual Maritime Division Trade deadline shows on Thursday!
The Wildcats continue to lose 2 of 3 which has some interesting decisions for the Wildcats staff moving at the end of the month. The Wildcats lost to the Eagles and Tigres this past weekend, but what is the identity of this club and are there some moves to be made in net?
