The question is not how many goals were scored in the first half compared to the second half of the Port-Farmingdale game. It is how does a coach/coaching staff pull a goalie with the score at the half 9-7 Farmingdale knowing that in the second quarter their goalie was facing the sun? A smart, knowledgeable coach would keep the starting goalie in. Port needs to reevaluate their coaching staff if they plan on ever making it to the next round of playoffs!!!!
A post above says the score was 8-5 at half, was anybody at the game and can tell us what the score at the half was? also a big difference in pulling a goalie vs. changing goalies. Have they done this in the past or is the kid that started the game the regular full time goalie? How many saves did he have in addition to giving up 8 or 9?
The team gave up 69 goals in their first 11 games ( 6.27 GAA) so eight or nine in the first half was a lot for them and maybe the coach just felt the kid just didn't have it that day. It will be interesting to see what they do this week facing a couple of good teams and if they play one or two goalies. Port has gone the previous five years with the same kid in goal, it is a luxury that few towns have ever enjoyed .
Good luck this week Port, could be a great week for you
