Grizzlies lose.We'll be honest, we turned this one off halfway through the 2nd. The Grizzlies didn't seem to be playing in sync and we didn't really feel like watching another 30 minutes of passive hockey. According to Colley's post game, we didn't miss much.
We're all for the boys sticking up for one another - as you should in this sort of a game - but when you forget to play hockey . . .
The Grizzlies' success has been more about working hard, playing good defense, and keeping their heads in the game. If we saw anything in the first 30 or so minutes of this contest, it was that Utah wasn't playing the way that we're used to seeing. They were in the box as often as they were out, and the boys were only able to capitalize on one of their eight power play chances. Donovan earned himself second Star of the Game with 14 PIM. It was just that kind of game.
Let's get some Grizzlies hockey going tomorrow, boys.
