Actually, the opportunity for this kid to play is due. And now he is ready.
Whether it is enough to overtake the powerful Thunderhawks will be another matter. But it just might be the missing piece.
Having Ness, Landman and Nelson transfer in will help, also.
Youso will not be eligible until next week.

Another workmanlike w for the Indians. Nothing spectacular, although Tabaka made some outstanding saves to keep GR in the game early. Once they found their legs, it was over for Bemidji. Lots of chippy play again, but in that arena apparently anything goes. Knew it may be a long night of whistle blowing against Rapids while watching the JV play shorthanded for most of the night, but I suppose the penalties evened out. On to Thursday.
Congratulations to Trevor Tabaka for his first career shutout, and what I believe to be his first career penalty at the varsity level.
Also congratulations to Nate Dumm on his first varstity goal. His second wasn't far behind.
Now hopefully none of you take Thurs. night off.

Six penalties aside tonight. Rapids scored once on their PP and once on Bemidji's. Nice night for GR. Time to get ready for a heated game on Thursday.

Tabaka had a great game,The team as a whole still very sloppy ,power play horrible,Great penalty kill.Movement of the puck and passing not very smooth.Still have time to improve.GR3343 wrote:Another workmanlike w for the Indians.

For a kid who's had limited activity, Tabaka showed some great poise. In my opinion, he handles the puck away from the net better than others. His calm demeanor during the game showed he's ready to play in any situation. He's had what, 3 or 4 career starts? He played like he's been the #1 guy for 3 seasons. Very valuable having a guy like that.

Where were those two guys from. I thought they were iron rangers.GR3343 wrote:Another workmanlike w for the Indians.

Not that they were bad against Bemidji, but just didn't call anything, than called things that had to be hard to see.
Dumm made a great read follwong the first man out of the 5 on 3.GR3343 wrote:Another workmanlike w for the Indians.

But who made the pass, very Tom Brady like. Ninety to a 100 feet and right onthe tape.
Very fun to watch, even if disheartening.
Bemidji people did not believe me when I told them he was the back-up goal-tender.GR3343 wrote:For a kid who's had limited activity, Tabaka showed some great poise.

But GR had a very good back-up last year, also.
First 12 minutes it was the Tabaka show. And some big saves later to keep Bemidji from getting intot the game.
