Well, I went to the Bruins and watched an epic comeback, headed to the Liberty Hotel for dinner and drinks before I rolled into Matthews to watch them nearly blow a four goal lead after controlling 45 or 50 of the 60 mins. At times they looked great be it against clearly a more marginal opponent. However, in true Huskies fashion, up 4 to 0 with 12 min left they were whistled for a double minor hooking and un-sportsman like. After the play, and for the next 7 mins. they looked like the bad news bears of hockey. The refs then gave them not one, but perhaps two make up calls for nearly changing the completion of the game. You all know the script, with their standard it's all about the zebras snow show. The 2nd penalty on the Bears was the rarely called too many men while trying to to pull the goalie with under two mins remaining. Luckily, our beloved Huskies hung on to hold on, ending the game on a power play that prevented Brown from pulling their goalie for any significant amount of time. The greater concern is the deer in the headlights coach, who does nothing to settle the team when they were taking on water. Instead, he was chirping at refs to no avail. I really think he's on the spectrum and the program won't be going anywhere with this Captain at the helm. Did I mention Gunnerwolfe Fountaine could realistically get to 60 or 70 points over their at OSU. See what happens when good players get out of Dodge and away from a coach who should be riding pine and blowing his practice whistle at a regional HS. I blame Jim. Never hire a friend unless he's better and smarter than you. I good pal named Amar Bose RIP told me that on my 1st co op job in 1985. It's solid advise. We really need to find a way to play more disciplined and collected and Whitehead needs to figure out why he lets in a trickler every night.
