The Cleveland Monsters fell tonight in a pivotal game against the Rochester Americans. Mark Letestu scored the lone goal for the Monsters in the third period. While, Tage Thompson got the best of the Monsters, not once, but twice, with his laser beam shot.
Head Coach John Madden spoke highly of Thompson stating, “there aren’t many goalies in the league who could stop him”. Yet, knowing this, the Monsters continued to leave him unattended throughout the game. Leaving highly talented opponents to their own devices has been one of the Achilles tendons of the Monsters this season.
