I think he tries to be the Brad Marchand of the Midwest. It’s too bad, the kid does have some skill. Last year he was on a tear. Hard to help from the box and his numbers show it. Looked on EP and he has 1 goal.
Deep in the heart of a abandoned Cold War missile silo, our hero goes to work. With the clock ticking, and fingers flying across the keyboard, can he do it?!
I don’t think that is the case. I think they are reactive to the team they are playing. If they get an inch, they take a mile. Otherwise they need to ‘find it deep within’ to get rolling. That speaks to leadership. Not everyone rolls over like Miami. Even CC makes it a game because they will themselves to fight. And teams react differently so it’s not team ‘A’ or ‘B’, it’s who showed up that night.
I think the strategy is sound, and had Omaha had the horses they could have gotten this done on Saturday. But we don’t look like our heads are in the game. First goal will be a big one. Either a painful death or a blow out.
