Disappointing First Weekend After Break...
On our first series back from break, against The Topeka Roadrunners, we had a disappointing 0-3 weekend.
Our first game Friday night we lost 7-1. All of us agree we were not ready to play and our legs just couldn’t get going throughout the game. It was an embarrassing loss and we felt ready to come out and play for the next game.
However, although we played a very good game the second day we didn’t get any bounces and definitely no help from the officials. It was a much more physical game, which was very exciting from my point of view. I left the game with only six PIM even though I was involved in a full out line brawl and a fight. As a team we finished the game in a 6-3 loss even though two goals were called back for us and Topeka ran over our Goaltender, Anton Olson and capitalized while he was down. Take away the empty net goal, and have a fair officiated game and it was a very close game.
The very next day we came out with no intensity, and with 7 PP goals for Topeka we dropped the game 9-4. Our coach was obviously very displeased with our performance and we had a three hour bag skate the very next day.
This next weekend we play the New Mexico Mustangs, the team I made main camp for and was cut during the past summer. They are last place in the southern division, we also picked up my roommate Joe Smereck from them right before the break in a trade with our old Goaltender, so it should be a competitive weekend in which we hope to get four points out of and put us back in the playoff seed we are battling for with Wichita Falls.
