Hopefully just the beginning...
Jay McKee, now Matthew Barnaby. With McKee as player- coach, which other ex-NHLers will McKee bring in for the Cup run at home in Dundas? Stay tuned all - will get interesting.
Article from tomorrow's Hamilton Spectator:
Former NHLer Matthew Barnaby joins Dundas Real McCoys
The Dundas Real McCoys just got a little more abrasive on the ice.
Former NHLer Matthew Barnaby -- owner of 2,562 penalty minutes in his career -- signed with the Senior AAA team Thursday morning. He will be in the team's lineup on opening night Nov. 8 in Brantford.
Barnaby is a former teammate of McCoys' defenceman and playing coach Jay McKee when they were both on the Buffalo Sabres.
Dundas will host the Allan Cup in April and receive an automatic entry into the tournament for the championship of Canadian senior hockey.

They say that one player does not make a team - agreed. But the Dundas Real McCoys are 6-1 since ex-NHL Penguins/Sabres defenceman Jay McKee joined the team. Steady player with over 800 NHL games.
The only loss was the meaningless last game of the season with nothing on the line, and many regulars out of the lineup.
Defence has always been the achilles heel of the McCoys.
Now up 3-0 over the Dunlops....

Just to add to that - honestly most people in Ontario don't realize that this forum still exists. In talking to many people at the McCoys game they figured there was no forum for Senior hockey anymore and didn't realize you could login from the Allan Cup page.

My point was that most people in Ontario go to the ACH page during the season. There has been a link from that page since the inception of their league (MLH which is now ACH)... If you notice, the number of posts has decreased significantly since the link was dropped a few months back. Most posts are now from the west as many (if not all) would not even think to go the Allan Cup page. The Allan Cup is 7 months away...
Too bad you are not involved with the ACH anymore - would be great for your forum if you could generate a link from their page again. I remember (not too long ago) when there would be many new threads every week concerning Ontario Senior AAA. But you won't have too many when there is no "Ontario" forum link any more...Just my opinion.

I see that Welland will join Senior in Ontario. Is Norwood not coming back?
And what happened to the expansion team for Cambridge?
Thought they were going to play in Hespeler?

munzie, you mentioned Jooris was there.
Why wouldn't Dundas have dressed him? Was he late arriving?

Dundas wins 4-3 in OT
Great game McCoys.
Short bench and they still won!

wade - how do you figure that Lloyd will have played more quality games/opponents than the other teams in their group?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the Ontario representative in Lloyd's division?
You can't get much better competition/quality of games than in the Ontario AAA league. They play a 28 game schedule with teams that are very skilled.
You may have a tainted opinion as each year it seems that Dundas has a short bench ... believe me it is not indicitive of the talent level in Ontario.
Just wait until this year's Allan Cup. Either Whitby or Dundas will be one of the best teams in the tourny. Word is that Dundas will have a full team if they go through.

Thanks Tom. I did read that he had signed a card, but my question is "will he be playing"?
Over the last few years, many of the players that have signed cards with Dundas have not ended up playing. Last year was a good example - if the players signed to cards had actually played in the Allan Cup, I am very confident Dundas would have won the Allan Cup quite handily.
Wondering if anyone knows if he'll be suiting up in Dundas on Tuesday night?

I see that the team Mark Jooris has been coaching in Tier 2 Junior A (Markham) was eliminated on Friday.
Anyone know if he will be joining the McCoys for the playoff run? Don't see him in today's lineup.

Great game today McCoys.
munzie - you mentioned you're there in Kenora. Great to see Jooris, McLean, etc up there.
Do you know where Deciantis and Shewchuk are? Will they play tomorrow?

The Bentley game means nothing jingjang. First 3 days are for "seeding" only...The real games start Thursday....The Dundas team that won the Ontario championship will be the team that is iced for the playoffs. Their GM Don Robertson stated in the media today, in Hamilton, that many of the players could not get a full week off but will be flown out.
Don't count your chickens yet!
