Surely one of the best games we played all year in dominating zone, out-shooting, out-chancing and absolutely outworking the downtown lawyers. Their big slow goalie, wasn't so slow tonight and combined with some posts, some wide shots, and some unlucky bounces we just couldn't put it behind his frame.
We deserved to win, and because we did that - and executed so well, I came home tonight feeling like I usually do.... after a win. :-)
We had four plumbers on D, and some really hard working forwards while Tony played goal again. Team - we did very, very well and with some more manpower I am convinced we can beat these guys when the chips are down the following week.
The Spirit were eliminated (!!!) so it seems our next opponents will be the Nordiques. I don't want to take this team lightly and hope that everyone brings their top game and work ethic next Sunday because a win then will allow us to go to the final and face the Byers again. I really, really want it...
We CAN win two games in a row, with simple hard work and impassioned high energy. Let's get everybody back, and let's win this thing.

Great game ladies!
The defence – Tim, Ricci, Marty, and James played incredible. Tony was great in net and was like a 6th man out there many times coming out to play the puck. This really helped us to keep the puck in their end and keep the pressure on.
I agree with Marty that it was like a win. We out played them, were in their end more, and had more opportunities. They just happened to have a goalie that was on fire last night. He stopped everything that was put on him, including Claude’s rocket shots.
It was a great effort and they should be worried about meeting us in the finals. We can beat them.
