I thought this was a pretty solid effort and a moral victory (if they have any value) vs. a superior team. Looks like the Troops could be missing another right winger, as I believe slew-foot is worth a few games (maybe 5?). Don’t know if this is on players or coaches but on the 2-2 goal there was a massive mis-match as the SUD #1s were out against NB #4s plus rookie D and Henderson. It wasn’t long before the puck was in the net. Amazingly only a 2 or 3 minutes later the same forwards were on ice, but no damage.
Luke Moncada is my captain on next season’s squad. His match-up against the Byfield line seemed to keep the big fella somewhat under control (at least 5 on 5) a good part of the game. Speaking of Q, his passing, skating and straight ahead speed look to be major league ready right now.
