Earning another point against a tough Mustang team
It was good to play an exciting, competitive game against the Mustangs this morning after a couple of lower energy games.  With a couple of girls out, I decided to make some significant line changes to get the team moving (including a strong Maciel line with Sarah), and the girls responded well.  We had our chances, especially in the 3rd where we had 3 power plays (including a 5 on 3 for more than a minute) to score what would have been the game winner. 

We had a couple of good shots, but not good enough to beat the Mustang minder who was always in good position to make the first stop and didn't give up any second chances.  The Mustangs played an intense game and had a number of good chances of their own, but once again our tender tandem played sensationally and gave us a chance to win.  Thanks to Coach Greg for working a short D bench again and for support down the stretch (especially for the last couple of minutes) and special thanks to Coach Keith for rolling the offense so smoothly with Coach Dave away - it was a real pleasure having you on the bench.  Nice to get another point, but I know that we have the skill to move the puck better so that we can generate more shots on net and see a few go in for us.  Good game, looking forward to another against Waterloo #2 tomorrow morning.  Let's all meet at Sportsworld at 10:30am so that we have time to properly prepare for the game.  Have a great hockey day in Canada and see you then!
