Message: [QUOTE="WoodyUK, post: 1391900, member: 1831"] I think it depends what the salesman is selling and who are his competitors! everyone can look at the bottom line but whats the story behind it? I watched the game again last night and I cant believe people haven't kicked up a fuss about the officiating, I know this leads to sour grapes, however there where some very dubious calls some leading to goals! I think Desko was very diplomatic in his post game interviews. We had numerous moving picks that led to goals, Stanwick dived into the crease and his arms hit inside the crease. We had the no call when Gallasso got hit which was a definite penalty and Young got taken down late in the game. We hit 4 pipes and Schneider made the difference early and often, once again we started slow. Slides where slow and hesitant. I am still bitter about the game myself and was still amazed when watching last night that it was 16-12 with over a min to go and the game ended 16-15, amazing heart but they let themselves down also by not having more urgency during the game. As a coach I couldn't fault the adjustments that Desko made and it came down to execution, if we didnt have the shots or opportunities to win the game then id be really worried. Sometimes you just get beat! he is a coach that makes adjustments straight away - adjustments like the two poles on the wing at the face off, two shorties at face-off so Hop couldnt take out there personnel, taking McDermott out when he got beaten early, ran 3 middie lines to keep people fresh, slipping into zone. did you not notice? ask Petro if Deskos adjustments didnt work as he looked like he was close to exploding when we made a come back. I think this was the best chance of winning a championship since Galloway's last season when we got beat by Army in the first round. I am as disappointed as anyone, but when you win 2 out of 3 trophies it can be the smallest of things. I dont care what anyone says Desko and his staff are the best in the business! [/QUOTE]
