Equally good to see some young defensemen actually.... defending.

D unit will be much improved from last years squad

Its going to take a while getting used to Rickwood.  I'm not used to a #29 moving his feet. 

Hahaha.

[bcblues]

Great start!

[brianvf]

2-0

Swanson

[Wilbur]

Tap in for Mac...2-0.

Starting to buzz a bit.

[cowboys5xsbs]

2-0 good guys

[cowboys5xsbs]

Hope Mac takes a step up this year

[brianvf]

Now a PP.

[cowboys5xsbs]

Weak call there 

[bcblues]

Dumb. A stick penalty in their zone.

[sioux rube]

That was weak 

[brianvf]

Short lived, 4x4.

Lots of penalties to start.

[cowboys5xsbs]

Getting some tick tacky calls 

[brianvf]

Strathmann just deked a Bisons right to the ice. Ha.

First PP seemed to be Verhoeff, Liv, Zellers, Reschny...and who was the 5th out there?

[cowboys5xsbs]

What a chance just missed 

[bcblues]

Damn, that was a great save

[sioux rube]

Oh man how do you miss that?

2 big saves in a row to keep it a 2 goal game.
James had it right there.

[brianvf]

Rickwood just wins all of his draws, I guess. 
Ollie has some wheels.

[sioux rube]

Man I knew they had some new guys but 15 out of 27 is a lot obviously 

[brianvf]

2-0 after 1

12-7 SOG UND

1min left in PP

[Oxbow6]

7 minutes in and you could tell Verhoeff is on another level. He's bigger than I anticipated.

Ollie is legit as well.

[Wilbur]

Man I wanted Josephson to get it to Verhoeff there for the one timer.  Not a bad start.  Plenty of chances.

You could tell Keaton wanted to unleash that too...just waiting for it to cross over.

Homer seems calm back in net.
And big.
