But, in all of those games, they did actually end up a fair way behind. Therein lies the opportunity. There will come a time when they get behind and cannot get back. They are far from invincible, and are probably due to have a flat one after last week's massive game.
Having said that, I don't think we can get them this week. Timing is just not right yet.
Agree but then there is a little part of me that worries maybe they are even better then we give them credit for. To win so many of their games in high pressure last quarters coming from behind builds enormous mental strength. Furthermore they have such high level of game awareness knowing which levers to pull at certain stages that their opposition can’t help but feel the pressure of the situation regardless if they are leading on the scoreboard or behind.
Only a horrendous run with injuries from now till GF day will be their undoing. As much as it pains me to say it nothing else will stop then this year.
As far as this week goes a respectable loss (under 6 goals) so our confidence is not damaged and no new injuries and that’s a tick from me.
