It's Game two of this Best of Seven Island Division Semi Final, as the Bulldogs visit the Grizzlies tonight looking to respond and even the series at 1-1 to take home ice advantage back to the Multiplex for Game Three Tuesday night.
RESPOND is what the Bulldogs must do, as they took one on the chin last night in falling 8-3 in the series opener. The Grizzlies elevated their game, and the Bulldogs just plain didn't. They started a step behind and trailed just over a minute into the game. While they showed some resolve in hanging around and fighting back, the Grizzlies kept the push on and the Bulldogs couldn't recover.
It is a series - whether you lose a game or win a game 1-0 in quadruple overtime or by a 10-1 score is irrelevant and in the past. Park it, learn from it and respond to it.
Tonight's 2nd Intermission guest is former Bulldog Cole Poliziani, currently playing his Freshman season with the NCAA's Trinity College Bantams. Cole was HUGE in the series last year against the Grizzlies, with six points in seven games. He had a couple critical moments early in the series, tying Game 1 in the third period before winning it in overtime. In Game 2, he again tied it in the third period on a penalty shot before the Bulldogs won it in overtime.
