South played poorly, but I would agree that nerves probably played a big role, they seemed to be playing "not to lose" instead of playing to win.
Bad news for North is that Nick Johnson (however class-less he is) is not going to be around next year and he was the best player on th ice.
Good news for North is maybe this loss will get them a new coach...cause the team will not be any better next year (maybe worse) so maybe Randy will retire.
Good News for South - They get a shot...and Hawk is playing great.
Bad News - Webbers line combinations could get them a quick lop sided thrashing by HM
Should be running #1 line Cass w/ Allen and Binder
#2 Haglind w/ Brevig and Simon
#3 should be Webber w/ #10 & #11
Luke Webber is a good kid, but he's a 3rd liner at best and the 3 line has to be used sparingly if South wants a chance at giving HM a run.
I'd go 1-2,1-2,1-2-3 if it's still a game...and I'd tell that 3rd line "Glass and out & Red line and in deep" all night long....otherwise Hawk better be able to stop like 60 shots..lol
