I hesitate to say this, but North Branch is no better than they have ever been. I don't care what their record is, they lost 9-2 to Cambridge tonight and it could have been worse.
Great turnout for their fans,including the youth players but it was ugly. They couldn't get out of their own zone against the third and fourth line in the third period. They may have guys who have put up points but you could not even tell who they were on the ice.
Cambridge skated 3 lines from the start and looked like they were saving themselves for tomorrow against Rogers (they also played last night so 3 games in 3 days). Backup goalie was in as well.
Don't mean to put them down but there has been a lot of talk here so I wanted to give some perspective.
