Guess the joke didnt come through. I was poking at how many excuses there were and trying to show you can find something in any loss to use as a crutch. The "Since were throwing out excuses" line I started it off with. Guess I should have put crappy in there.
Christos I agree regular season and post season 2 different worlds. Guys grip sticks a lot harder. Thats one of the benefits the wings have. Its not new and nobody panics.
But I just think Babcock was trying to protect his sophmore goalie who was eliminated by the Sharks in the playoffs last year and had thr potential of losing three in a row to them heading in to the post season. If you dont think that played a factor I dont know what to say. You dont want him facing them having lost three straight in his head after getting eliminated by them last year in the playoffs.
