Roughnecks vs. Rock

[Mike__]

Anyone catch the game tonight? Pretty crazy end to the game but damn I'm p*ssed. Only one fight where a roughneck clearly won. All other fights the Roughnecks got beat down. We need more fighters on this team! :angry: Maybe I'm just spoiled from watching the flames win alot fights from last season. Who knows.

Never knew how exciting lacrosse is, I should head out to more games. Dissapointing night, especially the 2nd half where they really lost it.

The Necks played a solid first half and then I started channel surfing and the next thing I see they are down. Why did the coach get kicked out? Its a disappointing loss especially since the Rock played last night in Minnesota and because of the big win the necks had last week vs Colorado.

Not to sure exactly why he left as I was busy with some stuff but I got this from the rouchnecks game summary.

Calgary head coach Chris Hall was also frustrated with the night's events, as he waved the white surrender towel at the refs and left the bench during the fourth.

Wow...brutal leadership...no matter how bad the officiating is, you don't give up on your team as the coach. Terrible, terrible example.

Depends on if he came back immediately. It might have just been a big show.

I know some fans that are downright p*ssed at the officiating (though if they were at the Hitmen game tonight, they'd know it is universal), but the fact is, it's not the referee's fault we were outscored 7-1 in the third quarter. And I say that having missed this game entirely.

I suspect it is a combination of the letdown following the big win against our biggest rival, the Rock being on a roll, and pumped up by their home crowd, and the officiating.

Nothing to do but refocus and win next Friday at home.

I found the officiating horrible. I don't know how many, but the majority of the Rock's goals came on the PP. There were quite a few questionable calls, and the ref was totally biased for Toronto. Crap, I turned the game off with about 1:30 left to play after watching almost the whole thing. I guess I missed a big brewha?

On another note, I believe the coach left because of another bench minor the team took. I think he was told to leave. Attendance was 17,000+...
