Any thoughts on that? I'm kind of surprised it didn't happen sooner.Rickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13758805762301302813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2036891869646909879.post-75818220720503115402009-02-25T10:01:00.000-05:002009-02-25T10:01:00.000-05:00The most glaring thing I saw last night was that t...The most glaring thing I saw last night was that they gat away from playing "Hitch Hockey". After the 1st, they seemed to lose any "jump" in their step. Non-existant checking, not finishing checks and not burying chances. Kipper was good in goal, not to take away anything from him. <BR/><BR/>You are absolutely correct in saying we could have won this game. The Flames are good, but we have shown that we can play to that level (Detroit, San Jose).<BR/><BR/>I'm still hoping for 3-4 points out of this road trip. The next 2 games will impact where we are in the standings more than last nights game. <BR/><BR/>I can just imagine Hitch in that locker room after the game...Rickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13758805762301302813noreply@blogger.com
