they played the first period well. if this was a fight, the first would have been 10-8 BU (if not stopped). but the fight continued and i'd have to give the 2nd and 3rd rounds to MC 10-9 each.
but you are right... win is a win.
3 things tonight (in order as they happened)...
**Vincent has to get off the top two lines. he is now a liability there. his goal scoring occurs when the puck is loose in the crease and he can skate in and tap it across. that's it. ZCohen hits a post in the 3rd. rebound across the ice right to Vincent off the lw circle. wait.. 1-one thousand, 2-one thousand. shoot. of course he misses the side of a barn.. but over and over it's the same result. HE.CAN.NOT.PULL.THE.TRIGGER. that's what his job requires. if he can't do it, don't put a kid in a situation where he is destined to fail.
i am not questioning his drive out there. he works hard and kills penalties. love the effort. probably nice to babies and dogs. but sending him out there game after game to stand 8 feet from the net on the PP and one time passes is a dead end loser. (there was another moment in the 1st on the PP when he couldn't wait long enough.. but whatever. i have been mentioning it for over 13 months now.)
**Colby is hillarious. what a WLB! the MC kid pulls his stick out and it gets thrown along the near boards toward the BU bench on a 3x5 PK... he turns and cries to the ref.. THEN.ACTUALLY.SKATES.TO.FETCH.THE.STICK.WHILE.MC.HAS.CONTROL
AND.LETS.THEM.SCORE.FROM.IN.FRONT.....
WHILE OF COURSE DOWN TWO MEN!!!
this is insane!!!! where does this come from?!? this lack of thought on the consequence of one's actions is baffling. and the 'whiny'-ness?? we've seen his tough side. he doesn't back down. not last night. we've all seen the youtube of him pounding big nick petrecki while in the ushl... but my lord already.
**Bavo and JP need to get their heads out of their *****es. ZCohen breaks a strap on his helmet and goes off... we need a fifth skater.. waiting...waiting... both Bavo and JP are looking out there. no telling one guy to jump. no shift change (i mean, why would they.. Nick is on the ice.. the only guy who has come close to winning a draw outside of Megan last night in the 1st and 2nd periods). just Zach standing there looking at his helmet getting fixed, then looking at his coaches... almost 20 seconds. FINALLY we decide to send out a whole new line

rolleyes: ). well, no. sorry. but MC has changed. you had your turn. confusion. ref has to allow one out. but no, Corey came first. we want CrisCo... no, Corey stays... of course then... NICK.GETS.THE.BOOT.AND.COREY.LOSES.THE.DRAW... PP shortly over, never again getting a chance to set up. falls to Rollie to save their ***** with an incredible flurry later on.
my head hurts from watching. ugh.
let's see KM rebound nicely up at Lake Whitt friday, then Rollie can win at home saturday and our boys will only be ONE game under .500 with the chance to even it up v. Harvard 'fore turkey time.
