"Meh. It's not overconfidence if you can back it up."
Since they couldn't back it up can we call it overconfidence now?

Impossible to take 3rd place. 5th would be nice thought.dulutheastfan wrote:Well im suprised...... East did have plenty of SOG I beleive it was 40 to Breck's 23 seems that Breck's goalie played outstanding...With East giving up a shorty with about 3 mins left in the game did not help them and with Breck putting away the EN really sealed it up tough loss for the Hounds...as it seems the past years East always does horrible at the Schwan Cup hopefully they can rebound and take 3rd place..
Not to worried about the Hounds come section time. As history repeats itself, so does the Hounds bad performances at Schwans.dulutheastfan wrote:Well im suprised......

They came out very flat and let Breck establish a quality forecheck. East seemed to gain some momentum towards the end of the 1st, but it did not carry over. The defense clearly missed Forbort, but there are no excuses for this one...it was an embarrassment. And so the Greyhounds' Schwan Cup malaise continues.
The next two games are must-wins for the Hounds to save face in this tournament.
Pointstreak shows the SOG 40-14 for East. Gotta bury more than two of those if you want to win. Props to Breck. Learning experience for the Hounds, I hope.dulutheastfan wrote:Well im suprised......

Well, well, well. How's the crow taste way out west. Looks like the "little Breck guys" were able to stand up to those big, bad, Puppies. For the record, Breck had a goal waved off that shouldn't have been and the could have easily had 2-3 more goals with wide open net misses. East is a very good team but YOU underestimated the Mustangs.WayOutWest wrote:You assume too much.Goldy23 wrote:Wow. I hope the Hounds aren't as over confident as all the North Country posters on this board or they may decide to sleep in and send out the JV instead.
Some of these comments remind me of the old Saturday Night Live skit about Ditka and "Da Beers" projecting ridulous wins.![]()
Personally, I am hundreds of miles from the "North Country" so my prediction wasn't a "homer" exaggeration.
Some folks merely realize how overrated Breck is. Those little Breck guys simply cannot skate with DE. It's really that simple.
Umm...he swung at a puck that was like a foot over his head. Although a very nice play, was clearly high sticking.Goldy23 wrote:Well, well, well. How's the crow taste way out west.

I think by "2-3 more with wide open net misses" he meant that the goalie was not in position to make the save, not that East had pulled their goalie. LolDuluth 4 wrote:Well, well, well.

Wow i don't know about you guys, but if a team lets in one empty net goal don't they usually put the goalie back in?[/b]
But he didn't make contact on it until it was at his waste. It was fun to watch either way. East outshot Breck for sure but it looked like by 10-15 at the most. The Breck goalie was a Stud tonight.greyhoundsnation27 wrote:Umm...he swung at a puck that was like a foot over his head.

The third goal was scored because the breck player made a smart play and shot between the defenders legs which acted as a screen. That shot still should have been saved but a heady play by the goal scorer.greyhoundsnation27 wrote:I know Cooper is a great goalie, but he didn't play very well tonight. He looked pretty shaky at times and the game winning goal was a wrist shot from the blue line without any traffic in front of the net. Hopefully the team can bounce back from this.

But then again, we're talking about an extreme unlikelihood, here. The kind of unlikelihood that is typically brought on strictly by divine intervention. ........ or better goaltending, backchecking and scoring!
