The second of the two games today was against one of the
local teams from the Traverse City area. While I really thought that the
Hurricanes came out strong in this one and had a good chance at winning, they
just couldn't seem to get one past the goaltender early in the game. The more
shots were stopped, the more it seemed like the kids minds started to wander.
While they were still giving it their all, they began to allow goal after goal
to the GTHA team - 13 in all while not scoring a single goal themselves. The
loss was heartbreaking, but the kids were all smiles in the locker room
afterwards, knowing that they are showing signs of improvement each and every
time they face a new opponent.
