The best team won. We had more SOGs, won more face offs and looked the better team for most of the game. Graz had a very strong first line with the big money guys but all four of our lines competed. It shows that its not all about the big name signings.
We also saw the best of all our new signings today. Sointu and Marjamaki are great together, Jardine looked solid at the back. And what confidence Lord must have in McMonagle to put him out again and what a beautiful finish.
Can we now all agree
1. The CHL is worth being in
2. We can compete in the CHL
3. We don't need NHL players to be great
4. Wannabe can blow as much smoke up the owners arses as he likes because they put this great team together who gives us days like today.
Lets keep those glasses half full
