Tourney Trouncing in Game 3
Game 3 vs the Warriors proved too much for the Clippers, who went down 7 unanswered goals by the last buzzer. The Warriors bookended the game with a goal 14 seconds in and with the final point with 10 seconds left.
Herein lies an undeniable fact in hockey... seconds count. The small let ups cost the Clippers big on the scoreboard tonight. Oddly, the opponent team was not nearly as formidable as the game 2 near tie earlier in the day. Clippers had more offense, more shots on net, and better passing, with just a bit more time to make good with the puck.
But it just did not work out that way. The rebounds didn't quite connect. Some of the best shots went centimetres wide. The legs just missed a stride here or there. The puck bobbled the wrong way. The Warriors capitalized on each opportunity with puck luck and `high compete` marking their play.
Not our game. On a different day, this would be much closer.
Shakin' it off for tomorrow's big match up with Oakville Rangers, the Clippers promise to come back hard and full of can-do to mark up 2 more points for the tournament.
BE THERE FANS and BRING ON THE COWBELLS AND CLIPPER-WEAR. The boys need to know we BELIEVE every shift. So show your FAN-dome.
GO TEAM GO!!!!
