Playoff game #5 vs Ranger Blue
Boy did this one hurt!!!!

Well after 5 of our 10 first round playoff games under our belt and only 1 point to show for it has to be a bit heart wrenching. Our first 4 games we've played very well, ran into some hot goaltenders, had great scoring chances, maybe a bad or missed call or two from refs, some mental break downs but overall we've played very well and should have come away with more than 1 point to show for.
Today's game we showed some signs of good efforts but we had some mental breakdowns and missed assignments that hurt us. Playoff hockey is full of pressure and having a keen eye and a keen mind and we all need to come to the rink ready and prepared to play, ready to play as this is how successful teams stay competitive.
We still have 5 more games remaining in the first round of the playoffs, we do have an uphill battle but not a goal that can't be reached with hard work, dedication and the will to win we WILL advance to the next round of playoffs.
Be ready for practice tomorrow and be prepared and ready to play Waterloo next weekend.

Coach Scott
