This could have been a great game. It was. Until the middle of the 3rd.
We can be happy for the win. A 3-2 hard fought victory. Winning by one goal in a game is almost as good as winning by 2 or 3.
Losing our young phenom in just his 5th game in the National Bush League to a dirty hit - a mugging unpunished by the refs - and no response from our supposed grit ‘n sandpaper new hires is not what we expected to happen.
The league wants to crack down on cheapshots, to protect its young stars.
