It was the first year I failed to attend the home opener. The 5-0 and 4-1 losses did it for me. I’ve enjoyed your posts here and it’s great having another V from Ottawa but if you’re going to bail on our local club after a couple bad losses it makes me sad. Great things are happening in Canadian football and the Fury are one of them, I can’t remember a professional club so committed to given Canadians a chance. As a long suffering Leafs fan, the lows make the highs that much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuzzAndSting Posted May 7, 2018 Share Posted May 7, 2018 Penn FC plays 17 of their first 25 games in the road because they share a stadium with a baseball team. Crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ruffian Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 Two straight shutout games with a predominantly Canadian back line and a Canadian keeper. Crépeau played both games with Edward and Henry playing every minute and Meilleur-Giguère playing all but the first 31 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bison44 Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 To be fair, the Fury have been very good to CDN keepers. Irving got every USL minute last year and it looks like Crepeau has taken over this year. Is Irving hurt or are they just making a change?? Did anyone watch the whole match...is Henry shaking off the rust and getting back to his form of a few years ago?

Crepeau has taken over the starting role for now; he's been solid since coming in, particularly in the last couple games. Outside of both being relatively small keepers, him and Irving are sort of opposites. Crepeau is a fantastic shot-stopper but a mediocre distributor, while Irving is easily the best Canadian keeper with the ball at his feet but isn't especially athletic and isn't a great ball-handler. Crepeau's services have definitely been needed given the team's defensive problems, but if we're able to control possession and defend well going forward I could definitely see Irving win back the starting role. 42 minutes ago, Bison44 said: Did anyone watch the whole match...is Henry shaking off the rust and getting back to his form of a few years ago? Henry has been very good but he has only played two games so it's too early to answer that question. That said, I'd argue that the fact Ottawa have recorded their only two clean sheets of the season in Henry's only two starts almost certainly isn't a coincidence. Ultimately I don't really think there's anything stopping him from getting back to his best so long as he stays healthy and can get match fit.

Ruffian Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 Henry looks to have put on some muscle. I watched a lot of the game and I did not see any glaring mistake but he also didn't make any of his athletic plays he used to on Toronto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red and White Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 Henry has been solid in his two games. Wins every ball that comes to his area, and skill set is above those around him. His positioning is better than I remember, and he isn't prone to crazy challenges which risk fouls and penalties. He does look really strong compared to players around him, so he may have added muscle. His ball control can still use improvement, but he doesn't automatically hoof balls down the field when he has possesson - this may be because the level is lower and he gets more time on the ball.

He's been great playmaker regardless, had lots of nice runs and he's basically earned a starting spot for now, which he wasn't able to do last year.
