This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Face offs didn't matter as much as I thought they would by Ccndbound
We won them late in the game (and in OT) when we had to. FO was not why we lost. Here are a few reasons we did:
Turnovers
Giving up a goal to a LS with .9 seconds left in the 3rd quarter after a bad shot on offense that led to an easy save.
Inexcusable/soft goals allowed (2nd goal of the game after a great check by our D and the ball squirts out over Doss's head, behind the back shot by Berg, rebound goal with our D standing still in Q4)
Lack of production from our attack.
Some positives:
Damn, this team never quit - unbelievable comeback.
Sergio can bring it.
Our ride - all about effort and we brought it for 4 quarters today and every game this year.
Sucks it had to end today - this team was in a great position to win it this year.
