Dropped first of the year

Well that sucked.  I guess 5 D just doesn't work, eh Pierre?  We had two lines up front and, yes, five D.  Just wasn't our night.  The Green Bastards came out hustling and got up on us 3-0 before we started to mount any kind of push back.
We finally started to turn things around and got one to make 3-1.....but we were never able to close the gap to more than two goals.  They got one to make 4-1, we fought back to get to 4-2.  Then they score another quick one to make it 5-2, we fought back again to make it 5-3.
After the midway point we were clearly carrying the play but Rob the Green Bastard was keeping us out.  We pulled Al but with under 3 minutes to play PA mugged some guy behind our net.  Penalty shot.  Of course he scored....it just wasn't our night.  Green Bastards 6, Good Guys 3.
