The Express took care of business tonight in Albert Lea, winning 7-0. Jason Horstman had a nice night in net for the good guys and the goals came from Fiala (2), Smith, Carew, Palmiscno, Thorson, and Kurbatsky. The story of the night though (in my opinion), was the play of the Express defenseman. They played great from the opening face-off, blocking shots in front of the goal, and shutting down any play the Thunder could muster. If the defense plays this well the remainder of the season, this will be a scary team in the playoffs.
Although I have taken several shots at the Thunder this season, I want to take a minute and give them some props. Coach Zangs is a lot better coach than his win/loss record shows. I wish him good luck next season wherever he ends up. I also want to give major kudos to the Thunder players who earned their spot on the team the right way, and stuck it out through a miserable season. I hope the owner/upper management of the Thunder re-think their approach going into next season, and attempt to field a competitive team.
See you at the rink.
