I thought we played OK that period, dominated most of the play but our finishing was awful.

We need to be far more clinical.

Dubeau gave up lots of rebounds. We need to be looking to capitalise.

Decent period from us but should have at least a couple. Let's hope we don't go our usual second period form next!

Brutally uninspiring stuff from two sides surely bound for another trophyless season each. I’m aware the rivalry is long dead but between the atmosphere, intensity and gameplay it is now just flatly tortuous to watch.

Looks fairly clear the side has given up on the title, but the lack of offensive imagination from the players who will likely form next year’s core is already a worry in advance.

I thought they played quite well in first but lacked the killer touch. Nothing new there sadly.

Not sure if my stream is on slow motion. Two poor teams seeing who can out rubbish each other.

Poor, poor hockey.

Well can't bench Graham tonight to get the high scoring imports out onto the ice more!
Finishing continues to be dreadful. Had some chances but not as good a period as the first.

Can't imagine that a strong corps of forwards will be retained from this year. Need to get more speed and finishers into the team. Also, if we replace the coach will expect him to want to bring his own players in
