Wow, you think that Tim coaches them to an intentional loss?!   Now 
that's bizarre!

I wouldn't have thought that Whitehead would even like a team playing 
"too much" offense, but what a bizarre way to show the problems in not 
doing everything necessary for good D.

Why would a coach want his team to lose the home game against the 
leagues' best teams?  ... it makes a Hockey East regular season crown 
almost impossible.

That said, there may have been more odd-man rushes in Sunday's game than 
all of last year combined. :-(

gobble gobble, wayne
