Awful defensive breakdowns, turnovers at the worst possible moments, shaky goaltending, and an offense that couldn't finish many of the limited opportunities they created. That describes the play of the Michigan Tech Huskies last night, as they were upset by St. Cloud State at the MacInnes.If MTU intends to garner a top 5 spot in the conference this season, home weekends with less than three points are not the way to go about it. SCSU outskated us last night, and we should have been playing a crushing physical game against a smaller, younger team. It simply did not happen.
Perhaps the worst news this weekend is that Michael Lee Teslak could be suffering from back spasms, as he did not start on Friday (as expected). Robbie Nolan is really going to have to step up his play in the net if Teslak is out for any length of time. What happened to his play from last season? He's given up some of the sloppiest goals I've ever seen in his last two starts.
I hope we see a completely different Tech team on the ice this evening, and hopefully they can salvage a split out of last night's mess.
