As I sit and think about it more, I suspect goalie fatigue played a
role. The shot was not fully screened, wasn't a screamer, and the
goalie (name escapes me) just didn't get his 5-hole closed quick
enough. I really think earlier in the game he would have stopped that
shot. That brings to mind, did ND have a fresh second goalie they could
have put in? Or do you folks see it differently.
