"(Exp) starting goalie was in a sling on the sideline. It was a low scoring game." I dont see the connection (maybe I do).
Sounds like a nice job by the "back up" goalie.
Question: Does the back up goalie typically not play for this express team or do the goalies split their time?
I would think both goalies on the team would be very good and who played/didn't play shouldn't make that much of a difference. Sounds like both teams played a great game and it should be left at that.
