I understand that it's only the first game of the season, but I'm still frustrated.
1) How has it become a pre-requisite that we lose the first game EVERY year?
2) It's annoying that basically every poster on this forum had better D pairings than our coaching staff. I understand spreading out our best D over 3 pairings, but that also means spreading out our crappy D so that every pairing has a weak link. If nothing else, make adjustments once it's apparent things aren't working.
