Message: [QUOTE="LaxDoc, post: 4728363, member: 8309"] Basically agree. . The Northmen went 2-0 against the Blaze in regular season and 2-4 in playoffs. The only tangibles differences were the Blaze traded with the Lakers for goalie Deacan Knott and the Northmen lost Scott one of their top defenders to injury mid season. Knott was outstanding all series with a lot of help from the goal pipe. (I don't want to minimize his play but it is a goaltenders best friend). Mariner, Rosa and Saris caused all kinds of problems for the Northmen defense, creating mismatches all series resulting in goals. Size. speed and great goalie performance when it counted made the difference for sure. [/QUOTE]
