We outshot a very good HE team 61-30 on their home ice and lost. What can you even say. When the hell does that happen? Once every 10 years?
Bottom line is if we play like that tomorrow we'll win, I don't care how great Levi is. Plus on home ice maybe the refs will be a little more open to calling penalties on Northeastern (sorry I couldn't make it thru a game without getting pissed off at some blatantly missed calls).
Seems with him he's so fundamentally sound and great with position that you need side to side passes near the net, but Northeastern really relies on defense so they aren't going to give you a lot of point blank quality opportunities.
A loss tomorrow would be really tough from a standings standpoint, but again, if we keep playing like we're playing, no one is going to want to take us on in the HE playoffs.
Also, I thought our PP looked really good moving the puck around.
Lastly, Capone playing with Kondelik's line? Was that just until Firstov was able to shake off the injury from getting crushed through the goalpost?
