Strange to feel optimistic about the team after getting swept at home to start the season, but the Jackets simply outplayed Army every period of the weekend except the first on Friday. Skog was a little rusty in game one and two of those goals were flukey. But the story of the weekend was Army's Cole Bruns who appears to be picking up where Gahagen left off. The guy stood on his head.
What freshman we saw looked promising except for Kapcheck. He's not promising, he's delivering. The kid plays as advertised. And Ryan Papa, the St. Cloud graduate transfer, was great in game one. Strong forecheck, fast skater, he clearly was irritating Army's players. Not sure why he didn't play on Saturday.
I'm heading out to the JAR tonight to finally see a game there while there's still time. No Bruns at Bentley!
