Our first round playoff location comes down to this weekend, possibly Saturday night. According to noted NCHC standings expert @brianvf, we need at least 5 points against the red cows or they finish ahead of us in the league and a likely trip for us to beautiful Magness arena for our season to come to an end.
I'm still wondering how the group got two points at Lawson with the whole 4 shots in 30 minutes of hockey BS. They did however, and our friends from Stearns county hot goalied the Pios and we sit tied with them. Would've been better for our on again off again team had Denver won that game and then swept CC to finish in 3rd place and we take our chances with the Mavs in a best of five series.
All I know about the red cows is they've got a great backwards goalie in Latkoczy. They are dead in the pairwise water like another local team I know, but could finish top three in the league.
Survey says, lose Friday, win Saturday. Plane ride to Denver Thursday. Or do we go Wednesday?
