The loss last night to a Panthers team that only got their second win of the season appears to be an indicator of what we all feared leading up to October: that this season, she’s going to be a long one.
It’s still far too early to tell what the rest of the year holds, but blowing 2-goal leads in the third period, and getting metaphorically smacked around in doing so, is a recipe for failure. Especially when the game was in “must-win” territory.
