Yeah that sucked. I still think we would have fared better if the coach took the leash off these guys. Overly disciplined play last night. We should have steamrolled them in the 1st period. (I told my son at the end of the first, "if we play like that we will loose the game")Coach tried to walk the line too close, should have let them deliver what the fans wanted. Take a few penalties but play the hardest physical game allowed by the league...that is the line they should have walked IMO.
Oh well, back to the real world. Hockey is too long...80 games for what? home ice advantage IF it goes to 7 games? IMO the league needs to make the regular season count more and have fewer teams in the playoffs. But it is more about how much $$$ they can squeeze from the fans .
