Seems like some wanted us to lose tonight, terrified of the idea of Dupont as coach. A very strange mindset to have.
A very good road game, to shut them out at home in such a pressure game is a hell of an effort. A few defence lapses yesterday for their goals, but today we shut them out. Enough said. 1 powerplay 1 goal. Credit to the boys for that effort.
As far as officiating, it wasn't what was called, it was what wasn't. Refs seemed to forget their whistles in the car. I noticed Perring called the penalty on Dixon end of the second, a very harsh one considering what was let go beforehand. Dixon was protesting to Hogarth, and Hogarth seemed to sympathise with him. Then in the 3rd Hogarth gave them a soft boarding call to even it up, and we score. Fine margins.
