This was a pretty evenly matched game. It could've been 4-3 us at the end. But we missed some opportunities. We didn't play our best and they did.
Unfortunately, their goalie made some great saves at the end. We wanted to get the puck in deep and get it on net (in the final minute), but they managed to keep us from setting it up. When we did get it set up, they kept us from getting second chances.
We figured we needed to hold them off for at least five minutes. You don't expect them to tie it less than a minute later.
The puck was bouncing all over the place. It seemed all the bounces they got turned to goals while ours turned into just 2-on-1's. I don't know if it was the puck or the ice, but both teams had to deal with it.
It's great getting that first win of these playoffs. Especially so since Canon-McMillan isn't really known yet as a hockey power.
You can try to stop either Jesse or Justin. You can't stop both, and for a time there, Greater Latrobe couldn't stop either of them.
