Mama told me you will have days like these and the Big Green at a game like this. Really there is not much more to be said but for the sake of keeping fans informed I will. Actually the Big Green was the better team in the beginning of the game with nice extended zone time and pressure but that came to a screeching halt when Graber had the puck on his blue line inside the dots mind you, when he inexplicably ran into the linesman (not the trailing ref) causing him to lose possession and in goes a Union player on a breakaway blue line in. It was a text book check from the linesman LOL. From there it went downhill, you name it: puck battles, puck bounces, etc Big Green even had an open net only to have the puck land on top of net instead of in it for a goal. Yes, it was of those nights. Buffalo gets pulled and Clark comes in cold a let's in the very first shot he faces while off his angle. Yes it was one of those nights. Crema scores two goals in garbage time in the 3rd to make half way respectable; he is quietly having a nice season. The Big Green had several odd man chances but failed to execute and capitalize on them like Union did; that's the main difference...lack of DIFFERENCE MAKERS! Let's be very clear, Union is the better team in all this. IMHO Foo will move on to the next level as I have seen his skill but I also saw a "bite" to his game last night as well. Good for him! Vecchione has dead head speed with the puck allowing him to back off defenders and create/make plays; other players may have that same speed but cannot execute the positive outcome like he can. Kudos to him as he also moves on to the next level. Let's puts this behind and get back on that horse. Get em' BIG GREEN!
