A game against the top team in the league should be circled on the calendar.
A game against a recent trading partner where ten players swapped jerseys, should be circled on the calendar.
A game against a commish, should be circled on the calendar,
A game against a 2 time league champion GM should be circled on the calendar.
It wasn't, sorry for missing it.
Despite an absent coach and GM, the gang put up good numbers, it came right down to a back-up goalie playing for the scond time in two nights, and a club which needed some tweaking but didn't get it. The new guys continued to put up good numbers, but this time Lehtonen could not shut the door. He did however, stop 33 shots. Unfortunately the Thrashers put 37 on net. Net result was a 4-3 loss.
