Wheaties vs Blades
11/26/2006 at 11:35 AM
What were the shots, 17 to 1 when the Blades scored!! Glad that Caligiuri hung in there after that 1st shot and shut them out the rest of the way. His numbers look really good, save % of .924 and goals against of 1.84 are 2nd and 4th in the league.
Thought Aulie stepped up his physical play which was good. You can just see Green getting more confident every game, just needs to get a goal now. Lockerby impresses me with his hustle and willingness to hit. I enjoyed Yeo's reaction to being hit open ice by Cloud!! And glad to see Reaves jump in to defend Moore after that boarding late in the game, Kohn too, but I hate to see Kohn risk his knuckles in a fight. I thought Simek and Burki were just a hair off and looked a little frustrated, what a shot Simek had that hit the corner of the post and crossbar! Clark was all over the ice again, he works so hard. Louis and Yeo make up a good tough rearguard. Bartek is faster than I thought and actually seems to come back and help the defence out a lot. For the team to excel we really need players like Dittmer, Topilko, Hallick and Moore to start scoring more.
Maybe Dittmer will play better now he was a healthy scratch.
