Quoteth from the BDN summary story on the Florida weekend tournament:
"Maine, which had nine players miss Friday's only practice after being
stranded by weather in Philadelphia, will face Vermont Sunday at 2 p.m. in
Portland."
Granted, it was in the final paragraph of the story, but I seriously hope
the team is NOT using this circumstance as some sort of excuse (even
partially) for the caliber of play which led to two weekend losses.
I mean, what WAS the effect ? Bad body mechanics on the ice, caused by poor
posture induced from non-ergonomic seats found in the airport departure
lounge ?
What's next -- blaming a weekend away series loss on the Cyr bus company ?
Happy (and over .500) New Year !!
