Team of Destiny?  I don't know...

This is the team of amazing goalies!

Maine was badly outplayed last night as the shots on goal show.
I've even stopped biting my nails.  I figure that when they play like they
did last night they don't really deserve to win, so if they loose they
loose.  That's not to say that when they scored my neighbor who lives a half
mile a way couldn't hear me.  Don't get me wrong, getting the win was
fabulous!  I'm really excited about tomorrow night!  I would really like to
see them skate for three periods like they did against Harvard in the 3rd
period and like they did against UMass in the second and third overtimes!
If they do that there won't be any need to have any nails to bite anyway.
 Of course, I've seem Maine badly outplay the other team and loose too.
That happens in hockey especially when there's a hot goalie involved.  And
sometimes you don't get the bounces and sometimes there are fluke goals.
Anyway,  Howard was more than hot, he was truly amazing, and playing like an
NHL goalie.  I just hope that the Red Wings weren't watching, they might
want him before we want to let him go.  I guess that's a true statement,
since we will probably never "want" him to go!

Also, a friend who saw the Denver/UMD game said that the UMD goalie let in
goals that were pretty soft and didn't seem to play with very good position.
Those Denver boys might find it a bit harder to get any by Howard!

Anyway, I'm predicting a Maine dominated game and minimal nail biting.

GO BLUE!!!!!

So the question today is:  Is this a team of Destiny?

This team was dead and buried against Harvard, 4-1 in the third and
we've been able to score many goals.  Bang, four goals in the third
period and we win 5-4.

Then last night, Maine comes out and plays a dangerous game against BC.
 Maine is outshot 41-18 (wow) and yet win the game 2-1, while holding
the Eagles to an unbelievable 0 for 7 on the power play.

Jimmy Howard is playing outstanding and in an interesting point of
irony a friend of mine (and member of this forum) pointed out that
Shawn Walsh's first opponent when he came back from his year-long
suspension was none other than the University of Denver Pioneers.

Coincidence?
