I don't think it was wrong. With a couple of "soft" goals and team defense not what it usually has been this year, you might have predicted it. In fact, I mentioned to an NU dad that an NU Coach Walsh might well have pulled their goalie Friday night after the 1st period and don't be surprised to see Morrison pulled. *I* wouldn't have pulled Morrison, but then I'm not behind the bench and ... I thought SteveK's non-goal went in! Perhaps >alternative left...he couldn't pull alfie and put someone else in... Why not switch back to Morrison? :-) >i just think that keeping morrison in would have benefited the whole >outcome of the game..morrison works well under pressure and he deserves >a shot to prove himself to the fans at umaine..... Morrison did pretty well in his first start, didn't he? :-) And I'll kneel down to anyone that could have predicted that out-of-character (for both teams) 7-7 game! Enough of those Sunday afternoon games, please. Maybe it will help in the playoffs, but with relatively few fans and so much scoring out of two defensive clubs ... I liked SteveK's quote in the BDN today. Something like "We should have won that game ... we were lucky to tie that game". How true cheers, wayne Wayne T.
