I think the "pride" comment was pointed in my direction. I'll own it.UntouchableFlow wrote:Quit taking pride in your close losses
I am proud of the boys. They didn't make excuses. They embraced the challenge.
They didn't buy into the hype that they were overmatched, and they weren't.
They didn't quit when they were down 2 goals but dug deep and battled back to tie it up 3-3 midway through the 3rd period.
They didn't get the win, but they didn't leave anything in the tank either. They left it all on the ice and played straight up swing for swing in a battle of two heavyweights.
Yes, I'm proud of them. Guilty as charged.
