Let me start by saying congrats to the Blades tonight. I don't want my rant to take anything away from how well they played. Saskatoon totally outclassed the Chiefs in every aspect of the game. Having said that, this Chiefs team has no heart. They were outplayed once again and if you can't get up for playing maybe the best team in the Eastern Conference, you've got some major problems.
I want to see a frickin' captain on this team. Is that really too much to ask Hardy? Really, is it? There's no way Peters or Bruton would have let the Chiefs get away with playing this lousy for so many games this year. The only team Spokane cares about playing against is Tri-City. I can't even describe how frustrating that is. If Spokane is trailing by a goal late in the third, I've given up on them scoring a tying goal. Not only do they not score, they can barely even get it in the zone whether it's against Saskatoon, Portland, Seattle or Everett. It looks like a pretty good bet that Spokane will make the playoffs this year, maybe even win the division, but if they play like this in the playoffs, they will flame out in the first round. The players on this team need to get off their asses, wake up and start playing inspired hockey.
