I had been told that they had a brutal bus > ride to the Soo...not offering any excuses/alibis for anyone...the Lakers > looked pretty good There's no doubt the Lakers have a very good team... you don't sit near the top of the ccha for no reason. With regards to the team (Miami) looking tired.. it does seem like a reason that would make a team not play their best.. coupled with other reasons of course, and would also explain a loss to a team who is obviously not nearly as talented as Miami in Ferris. I think Ferris took advantage saturday night of a tired, dejected team who was probably looking forward to getting to sleep that night after a long, tiring weekend. These aren't excuses for the loses.. you lose games because you didn't play well enough to win and the other team played better and wanted it more. Well, I can't wait for the upcoming games.. in fact, I am getting giddy right now thinking about it :) HOCKEY-L is for discussion of college ice hockey; send information to [log in to unmask], The College Hockey Information List.
