Wow. Just wow.
That game should never have been lost especially being up 5-1 so what happened?!
When Paris got his penalty (which i dont think was a penalty, im sure it was shoulder not head but DOPs will decide) we didnt seem to have anybody step up on the ice and say & keep saying & showing “right, keep it simple, see out the penalty then we’ll adjust. Simple hockey, no dumb penalties” it must have been mentioned at the bench and these are long term pro’s who should simply understand that anyway without anybody saying it, so why implode?! For me it has to come down to lack of strong leaders to implement.
Hogarth is the worst ref in the league by a long long long way but both teams had him. Adapt your game FFS. We have him more than Fife do so we should know that by now.
The biggest problem though & has been all season is our PP & PK. Tonight was like watching kids play adults. Was it 6 PP goals plus a short hander for Fife from 8 goals. Simply not acceptable at any level.
The guys have had the plaudits recentky and quite rightly for the winning streak but these 2 loses shouldnt have happened. Dundee had what 14 players? Fife come down to us & out fought us. Appalling.
Im a big fan of Lordos especially as a player but he isnt doing what he used to do. Is it injury? I know he was injured earlier this year. If it is, sit out get fit & as so many people have said let Batchy play more minutes. I still feel Batchy should be on D though.
Tonight will be painful i think but i live on in hope!
