Fantastic game tonight, the place seemed buzzing at times and the players really seemed to feed off that. I think the refs stood back on one or two calls that should have been made and that may have led to a little more player retribution than usual. Also they seemed to deliberate for ages on their calls which were at times very apparent.
Kozun made some great saves and showed his class when it comes to positioning. We are in a very fortunate place to have such strong NM at the club and I can only hope it lasts, however, I think some other club may come knocking for Kozun next season with a gaurentee of a No1 starting position. Hope we retain both for next season at least.
Great skill shown by Coughler, the man seems to be EVERYWHERE on the ice and his reading/vision of the game is second to none. I have to say that Brandt, in my opinion, is showing the signs of a good player and more than just a physical checker. His passing when under pressure was tape to tape so I think when he settles and given the time his confidence will improve and in turn he will produce some good points.
Register also seems more eager to shoot the puck on target and is another player that can get forward and impose the play on the opposition but is steady in making sure he is back on the blue line when needed.
The team is coming along lovely, speed, passing, positioning, reading each others plays and stepping up to the plate when needed for each other as was shown again by McNally (clearly becoming a fan favourite).
On a SEPERATE Note, if one of you could please let me know as I have missed what the relevance is with the chocolate bieng thrown on the ice at the end of the game for some reason. When and why did this start and is this now a regular theme??
