Anyway, the Coogs found a way to pull it out yet again and like you said scamperdog, the goaltending has been the difference. Cyr has a 92.6% save percentage right now and a GAA of 3.00. Butler is sitting with a 83.3% save percentage and a GAA of 4.00. Now that being said, it sounds like the Cougars haven't really been challenged in tight and perhaps the Kamloops D has been absent in clearing guys out from in close?
Sounded like fewer quality chances tonight from the Blazers than last night. It sure sounded like Friday was the "one that got away" more so than tonight. The sports director from NL Radio (at least I think that's who it was) was doing colour for the Cougars broadcasts this weekend and it was his opinion that the shots were not totally indicitave of the play? Obviously the Blazers got more rubber at the Cougar net, but losing 2 games in a row at home would seem to indicate that there are more problems than just not getting the bounces.
I wouldn't be surprised to see PG blow the doors wide open on Tuesday. They have to be JACKED coming home up 2-0.
