Oh So Close...
One more win...
But chances are it will be by far the toughest to get.
The Minnesota Wild defeated that Atlanta Thrashers 2-1 in OT on Thursday night to take a 3-1 lead in the CPHL finals. Mats Sundin played the role of hero on Thursday tipping home a Dan Boyle point shot at 14:39 of the extra frame.
The goal sent the Minnesota faithful into a frenzy as the fans realized their team is but a single win away from capturing the big price.
But GM Farhall says the team can't let the excitment take them off their game.
"There is a real danger of losing focus in a situation like this. We need out veterans like Mats to really show their composure and set the tone for the team. It is going to be a zoo in Altanta for the next game and we have to be ready for that".
