AUS finals
Game 1
X-Men defeat UNB 2-1, despite getting outshot 50-19. Chase Marchand in goal for X was beyond stellar!
This was the first home ice loss for UNB this season.
They are a tough nut to crack, especially when they get an early lead. X defends very well in the defensive zone and is opportunistic on the transition,
They managed to generate just 2 shots in the third period, Monday night, but hung on to win,
They have a chance to win the AUS final on home ice, but don't think they will win the University Cup.
This is a younger X team that lost to UNB in the National final last March, but it is the same coach, with the same systems that dethroned Alberta and knocked off Saskatchewan, in Halifax.
UNB has had their number during the regular season, but St FX has gelled at the right time and has now won 5 straight playoff games.
On another note, the team that meets them at UCup will be in for a dog fight!
