“This was a good rebound from our loss over the weekend to Brookfield. Tuesday night’s game against Stoughton was a hard fought contest that we controlled in most aspects of the game except the scoreboard. We felt going in that this should be a pretty competitive game – one where we felt we could prevail in the end. Stoughton’s experience level is similar to ours; and, as we are, they are particularly strong in net. With the strength of both goalies on the ice we expected this to be a low scoring affair. We felt we needed to get at least 20 shots on net; and not give up any more than that. We accomplished both of those – and, in fact, got 40 shots on net. Unfortunately, we came up just short on the scoreboard. We gave up a goal late in the 1st period on a power play – Stoughton took advantage of the man advantage. We came back early in the 2nd period when Cara Sanders tucked the puck in from behind the net after a gutsy effort from Ali Sanders who got the puck to Cara after getting knocked to the ice. Going into the 3rd period tied 1-1, and having put 26 shots on net already we had reason to be optimistic. Unfortunately, Stougton took advantage of a defensive breakdown and took the lead back early in the 3rd period. We kept the pressure on the rest of the way; pulled our goalie with about 2:30 left – had some great scoring opportunities but couldn’t get the tying goal past the Stoughton goalie. We will get over the hump — we are making progress.” – BD Co-head coach Paul Uttech
