ML beat Crabs. 9 to 5. ML once again struggled at face off (Crab FO is solid and a great athlete beyond the dot) but was able to control the game with their LSMs and active attack. ML defense was solid. Crabs have some large boys at D. One literally towered over ML's somewhat undersized attack squad. Crabs goalie started slow, but came alive in the second half and was very good under some heavy fire.

IMO if ML solves their FOGO issue they will be very hard to beat. If they don't, they will have a long year losing to the top teams.

Not an ML dad, but have friends there and watched the game because my son played earlier and stuck around. fwiw.
