It was a rough week for the Syracuse Crunch as they dropped all three games during their trip to Laval. They did manage to pick up a point in the overtime loss on Friday, but overall their mistakes outweighed any positive play that they had on the ice.
For Coach Ben Groulx, a lack of high-intensity practices during the week are starting to show the cracks in the Crunch’s game. His mantra all season long is that they aren’t the most talented team and need to outwork the other team to have a chance to win. That was apparent throughout the week as Laval just seemed to be the better team.
