A Win is a Win ..........Ruccia First Star .

[JEagle]

A win is a win you're right Hal but I feel bad for Ruccia there's no guarantee he would of got the shutout but those two goals allowed in the final 5 minutes weren't his fault at all.

Houde taking an unnecessary unsportsmanlike penalty because he wouldn't stop yapping at the Wildcat players on the ice after Shortall was already getting a penalty for checking from behind and then Arnold and Langlois getting crossed up right in front of the net allowing Lounsbury to take a point blank slapshot.

Aside from that I thought the Eagles played well they looked like they were forechecking and backchecking like they were during their win streak, still little details things to clean up but I was happy with what I watched last night.
