Goon was at the game tonight so he asked me to cover the game for him.
I couldn't turn down my first chance to be a real sports reporter so here goes.

The Sioux also benefited from two goals ruled no goal for St Cloud. One was kicked in for sure. We haven't gotten those breaks this year either.
This sports columnist stuff isn't hard.
The Sioux have been playing some good hockey but haven't been rewarded for it. Finally the pucks were going into the net.
Last night they did everything they needed to win, except get the puck by the goalie. Tonight we played the same kind of game, rough, physical, and fast.
Let's not forget that St Cloud is an excellent hockey team. They're number four in the power rankings. We outplayed them seriously for the weekend.
This team has the potential to score a lot of goals. For some reason we haven't seen it since Genoway was injured. Hopefully the team can use this as a confidence builder for next weekend against Duluth.
It doesn't look like we're going to get a very high standing going into the playoffs. I'm pretty sure that nobody's going to feel good about playing us because we can take down anyone.
That second period by the Sioux was very impressive. Granted, the Huskies stood around and sleep-walked, but the team in black came out with some fire and never let up. I really with they would have allowed Marvin to kick the crap out of Lamoreaux in that staged fight. That is not the Huskies brand of hockey; they are not built to play an "NHL-style" grudge match and if they run into a team that plays that way sometime in the playoffs they will get beat badly again.
ReplyDeleteWhistler nicely done.
ReplyDeleteAt least I can write a game wrap up without making everyone think that I'm suicidal.
