Well, winning 3 in a row took 10 tries. So 4 in a row probably will take min 20 tries.

No Cups

As I said in the game thread, we've been showing our ability of not giving in and winning games late on from behind of late. I said after the Sharks game that's an excellent quality and it is, but you can't keep going to the tank and repeating every game.

Despite the amount of shots on goal, that was a shocker, I think it's only comparable to the Avs game earlier in the year for me. These games happen, we can't expect to come back all the time, and so this is the slap in the face they need to make sure against the Leafs they come out more clinical and stop the goals against.

I'm just glad this wasn't a play-off game as I'd be far more concerned than I am.



Take me home, country road
to the place where I belong
to Alberta, to see the Oilers
