When we normally choke at Christmas time I always sit in my seat sing,'Its starting to look a lot like Christmas' Panthers have even took that way this year by choking earlier Don't think you can call it "choking" when it's this early. Think it's called just not being very good. |

To be fair we weren't brilliant in the first 2 periods, your guys seemed to want it more. When it was 1-0 I thought if you had scored a 2nd then possibly it could have been game over, but we scored on the pp and we seemed to get our jump back and hit a bit of a purple patch and scored another. With regards to Hicks was he great no he wasn't, was he consistent calling things no he wasn't but to be fair some of your players made it easy for him especially Farmer and Lawrence who moaned at Hicks at every opportunity, Farmer was lucky he didn't get called for a gloved punch in Hotham's face but then got called for an elbow possibility a soft call but keep getting in the refs face and that can happen if you wee wee him off enough times not right but hey ho. In the past ALL teams have benefited to a degree from poor refs including the Steelers and Panthers!!Now it seems it's blame the Devils time for other teams players poor personal discipline, the one difference for us is that the Devils have a coach who is interested and has an obvious passion for his team the players aren't saints but Lord demands the players keep their mouths shut and only the Captain or Assistants speak to the ref, last night quite a few of your players challenged him on decisions constantly. Both Thompson and Neilson are very experienced coaches compared to Lord, but last night Corey and Strachan stood on the bench and hardly moved and hardly spoke to their players!!. The call on Asselin with just under 2 minutes left was a very desperate call by Corey in my opinion but fortunately he made a right call and we got a 2 min pen for it and made a 4-4 instead of a 5-3, with regards to some on here who accused Asselin of cheating please don't take the moral high ground, I'm sure if Lord did the same call some of your guys would have illegal sticks!!With regards to Doucet's goal and an apparent high stick, I honestly thought Mark Louis had scored when the puck hit the net so I was really surprised when Doucet was announced as the scorer. Farmers misconduct came from not keeping his mouth shut again something he did all game, Lawrence seemed more interested in sprouting off to Hicks when in actual fact if he concentrated on the game he's a pretty decent player with his size, Mcgratton just didn't seem interested at all he came out did a short shift skated around a bit, played a pass or two then went off. This isn't a gloat from me at all of course I'm glad we won, I may be wrong and if I am I apologise but for me Corey appears to not give a rats arse about your team, I think if he showed he cared for your team then he would get more from them possibly.
